Yeah, it's because under a three round construct, the nature of boxing is more fast paced. Boxers tend to give away their cards very quickly because they have a lot to do and a lot to avoid in such a little amount of time. Thus, if they don't start strong/well, they've lost a round and the other two are a must-win - this structures amateur bouts differently as a result. Yup, Lomachenko's understanding of energy conservation and also strategy across the number of rounds he's scheduled for are both essential for him earning the victory.
What do you mean by best FW to LW fighter in history He has said himself that he wants: - Salido (which looks a sure thing to be next as they're just trying to sort out the stadium) - Gamboa (this fight massively interests him at 130) - Flanagan (for a 135 WBO belt) - Unify at 130 (Corrales, Vargas, Pedraza-Gervonta Davis winner) - Russell Jr for WBO Belt in 3rd pro fight, Martinez in 7th pro fight 2 weight belt holder, elite Walters currently on his resume. - Move up to 135, I guess for the likes of Mikey Garcia. How would you rate him with those wins?
Nah everything you said about Salido doesn't sound like hate to me you just favour Loma in the rematch which is fair enough, I do too. I think people **** on Salido in order to try denigrate Loma but in all honesty one is an fighter with elite skill and the other is the ultimate litmus test for any prospect or young fighter. Tbh HBO are the ones who turn people away from talented fighters like Loma, GGG and Gonzalez, they hype them all so much that it's the moment they show any vulnerabilities the haters go 'see the guy is a hypejob'.
The short answer is he is a athletically gifted dude who has crazy boxing I.Q. Why he takes time to feel his opponent out in the pros is the same reason why most of the most talented fighters do Mayweather, Crawford, Ward, they analyse their opponent, get a feel for his rhythm, his confidence level, what types of puncheshe likes to throw and if there's openings when they are thrown etc. Then they process it and make the adjustments, they know they have time in 12 round fight. That's my thought hope that answers your question.
As Im confident he would beat everyone you mentioned with the exception of Garcia that would be a remarkable, if he becomes undisputed and beats Garcia in under 20 fights that would be the icing on the cake you have to make him an top 5 ATG at least
This. Unless Salido ages overnight he beats Loma again. Walters had no inside game, which Loma seems to still be uncomfortable with.
Salido will not quit but his team might call it off if things go as badly as we all are forecasting. I can then see Salido busting heads on his team right there in the ring. I have a feeling that Lomo puts on an outstanding show and the dirty ole warrior Salido retires after this one. Great fight and always wanted to see it again so let's GO
He's style looks to be the most effective but we will see if Loma has learnt from the first fight. If we're to pull of the upset again, everyone will have to accept he is Loma's kryptonite.
I'm pretty sure Loma has had almost every advantage over Salido, except for size. I expect a prime Salido to give Loma another nice little beating, but this version loses. Salido has been in one to many wars imo, and he peobably should consider hanging them up after his next fight.
Yeah, I hear you and here's what I picked up from reading some of Salido's comments. He knows that he caught Loma when Loma was naïve to the professional game and the type of attitude a fighter has to bring with him in that ring. He also knows what he needs to do in to adjust to the now sinister Loma. He is still confident in his ability to win. Salido can fight and he is champion material. I think that he will make adustments. I am not gonna play him cheap.
'Your so bias!' Rigondeaux ran away from him. His Cuban glass chin would've been cracked so easy. Rigondeaux is dropped all the time.
Yeah I think Salido has the type of mentality and style to beat Loma, it all depends on how confident Loma is; if he's up for it he can beat Salido and possibly stop him but if he signs to fight Salido reluctantly then he's gunna be in for another long night.
