    @slender4 this is the second your post when I want to answer immediately, so I click the Reply button, then I read again and think it over and I have like almost nothing to say in the end, lol. :)

    Concerning this Robert Easter Jr, will he and his promoters be willing to fight Lomachenko (if he wins vs. Linares) what do you think?

    1. His fanatical fanbase makes it hard to discuss Lomachenko properly. I'm a huge fan of Lomachenko and even when I am even a bit critical of him the Lomasexuals start with the personal attacks.
    2. It left a bad taste how he went through Super Featherweight without fighting Miguel Berchelt, I was very disappointed Lomachenko did not take that fight before moving up to LW. One of the most annoying things in boxing is when fighters move up to a division, pick up one of the many titles and leaves without facing the top guy there and then calls himself a multi-division champion.

    Yes I think he will. I don't think Easter would duck Lomachenko, but he would probably want to fight Garcia first. He will make more money in America fighting a Mexican, I don't think Garcia will every fight at 135 again though.

    This may surprise you but I would bet on Lomachenko to beat Easter. I think he is a better more experienced fighter. But it's a good fight and if Lomachenko beats a black guy who is 5'11 he will look good.

    I would bet my money that if Lomachenko wins he will fight Luke Campbell next though, that is a multimillion dollar fight in England.
