    Very surprised to be honest.

    Personally I think Walters is an excellent fighter but he is a fighter that will make Lomachenko shine.

    He has power but his footwork is sloppy and his technique is too crude for a guy like Lomo.

    VL TKO in 8 to 10, depending on how durable NW turns out to be.

    I don't think anyone could claim to be "surprised" deep down this should be a pick em fight, walters unloaded everything he had on Sosa and took the same amount if not more damage in return.

    Live, I had that fight a draw..
    Loma, he lost, well, on my card fought also to a draw with salido.... I think I had Loma as pulling out the W with winning round 12.. there's NO excuse for ANY fighter people claim to be one of the better fighters in the whole sport to NOT dominate and most likely stop salido

    I don't truly know what each brings to the ring.
    Both fought on even terms with their best opponents , who happened to be C/C+ level fighters.

    This fight is both of their best opponents, so we truly have no idea how they perform with better opposition .

    Still a pick em fight until a few rounds prove otherwise

    Fair enough, one thing I will be shocked to see is Walters getting stopped by Loma, I think this will go to points thats what tends to happens when the best fight outside of the HW division.

    I'll be rooting for the "AxeMan" to score a stoppage in this.

    Straight up the middle for me, this fight can go either way. Loma is a master tactician with skills ( among active fighters) second to none. He has also developed a mean streak and a take no prisoner attitude. Then again, Nicky the Axe, ain't no joke. He came up in the same system that produced "Hands of Stone". The man can fight and he comes to fight. What can I say, Fire and Ice.

    A little surprised.... But not shocked. Walters can punch. Lomachenko should definitely take this one though.

    Not surprised one bit. He is more than capable of beating Loma.

    My take is this. One guy is very flashy, the other is very subtle. It's a pickem fight but my bold prediction is Walters TKO8. Screw playing it safe.

    Yes, very surprised. It's not often when the guy I'm rooting for I'm totally confident will win, this time I am.

    I favor Walters, he still remains the only fighter to eat Nonito's devastating left hook, spit it back out, and decimate Nonito, which no one else has done. Walters was robbed against Sosa, who atm is a better, fresher fighter than Rocky Martinez, who was a ko waiting to happen. Salido dominated him in the rematch and would have crushed Martinez the 3rd time around. Loma is a special fighter, but Walters has a great pro style and can also be a future great. He's a better fighter than boxer and that's not good for Loma. Axeman reminds me abit of Forrest.

    I don't know as Loma has already been beaten, And Walters poses his biggest test to date, but I do know there will be a lot of pissed off people if Walters won a close decision.
