did lomenchenko gain your respect after tonights performance ?

Unfortunately, most people will write him off and he's now a bum. It's just the way it is on these boards

 

Yeah, he gets respect. However his fans hyped him up way too much.

I thought he had a shot of stopping Salido in the 12th but Salido is a tough son of a *****

The guy was way too tentative and gun shy

 

Yeah, proof a loss means **** all at the end of a day.

 

Not writing him off but what did he show tonight? apart from being younger and having the Stamina to try and hit a home run in the 12th.


The guy is solo green, lol at his mgmt team and hob trying to push him this fast. Dude sowed no Ring Savy

 

I will always respect people who dare to be great, and I'm not talking about just boxing.

I rather see a guy who risk everything and try to succeed than a guy who risk nothing. That's how I view the world and I will always respect people like Lomachenko, regardless of success or failure.

So yes, I respect Lomachenko as a fighter and a human being. He came up short, but there's no shame in that. I thought the fight was a draw and he was the stronger fighter down the stretch. He didn't fold or get KO'ed. Lesson learned, but he's got a lot of potential.

 

I already respected him, but he did earn my respect in how he handled a hostile environment and a decision that ultimately went against him with class.

He showed heart and nearly pulled off the knockout late, but I think it just took him a little too long to adjust and he gave Orlando a little too much respect in the middle rounds. All in all though, this will be a great learning experience for him going forward.

I respect the fighters who test themselves, and who don't point fingers at others even when there's an opportunity to. That's a champion's mentality, and he'll get there soon enough.

 

i give him credit for going after a World Title in his second fight.

however, i give him none for that dreadful **** he dished up.

 

brit fighters always do better.

 

had Lomachenco of given it his all by letting his hands go but came up short, no problem. but not letting your hands go and doing nothing isn't exactly a skill. anyone can do that.

 

not always, no. but most do a lot better than what Loma did.

 

Dude's a bum. Fights like a Kowardly Klitschko with all the holding. Grow a heart you loser. All that hype for nothing.

 

yeah, if they fight in the uk. no british stoppages for lomachenko fighting on hostile turf. why isn't your clown hw gold medalist fighting even bums yet then?

 

Wrong tactics.

Not taking anthing away from Salido though. Salido on the right night beats anyone.
