How serious a chance would you give Takashi Uchiyama against Lomachenko?

    At 130lbs.

    I grant the way that Takashi dropped his title/lost the rematch doesn't look the best vis-a-vis this match but he was a bit of a unit for a spell there and very sound.

    How do you think he would have done with The Matrix at his extraordinary best?

    One thing is for sure, if he lands a right clean like Linares, Loma isn't getting up.

    The tricky thing is, is that although Lomachenko is incredible, it does only take one mistake to turn a fight on it’s head and it doesn’t matter how good or dominant you look up until that mistake. That being said I think Lomachenko wins 9/10 times

    I'd take Campbell over him as well.

    I give him zero shot at beating Loma. Current Miguel Berchelt is better than Takashi ever was, Loma is on another galaxy than Takashi when it comes to boxing.

    He was a good exciting champion who could punch and had some skills though and i have a lot of respect for him but beating Loma is asking too much from him.

    Yeah Berchelt is really excellent, a cracking fighter.
