    Alot of people are riding with Loma in this spectular fight, although I give Loma the edge I see scenarios where Walters can get the win with a good game plan. I think this is a 60/40 for Loma, kinda like I have the Ward match up a 60/40 for Ward.

    Where does Walters go on the p4p list if he defeats Loma a two time gold medalist and two weight world champion? Does this take him no.1 like it would Kovalev if he beats Ward?

    Walters has a puncher's chance that's about it IMO. Unless he hurts Loma early he's in for a long night. But to answer your question it would put him in the top 5 p4p

    Well although I'm very confident on a Loma victory, with Walters' frame and power, you can't count him out.

    Whoever wins takes P4P no.3 IMO (after Chocolatito and Ward/Kovalev winner)

    Who would you put ahead of him coz for me his win would be the biggest upset out of all the p4p guys?

    I don't think I could put Gonzalez ahead of him if he wins coz Gonzalez has not beat anyone who most people thought he would lose to, if that makes sense.

    Good question. I think Loma is very good, but Walters does have a size advantage. If he wins, top 5 p4p in my book.

    If Walters wins he takes the seventh spot. Idk how people can magically place somebody at the top of the list for beating #7.

    Not from
    If either man wins they become the top 3 in my book. Loma coz of the levels of fighters his been in with and what he's achieve in such a short time and Walters for beating someone he isn't favoured against plus he's beaten some solid names already.

    Walters is hungry for the recognition, he is versatile and better than given credit for. Not only is he rangy, but he can pressure Loma and get him in uncomfortable situations, especially on the inside, where even the great Loma does not know how to fight. I don't think he'll try to outbox a master boxer like Loma, but I wouldn't be surprised if he humbled Loma with his own power. Not to discredit Loma, but Rocky Martinez I think was there for the taking. He clearly lost to Salido and I think Miura, Vargas, Walters, and even Salido on the 4th time around would have stopped Martinez.

    Anything is possible in boxing, but I expect Lomachenko to beat Walters by UD or TKO, perhaps even by KO...............

    I'd bet the house that Little Vasyl can't ko Walters, if anyone is getting KO'd its not Walters

    Ya damn skippy it aint Walters, he's too tough for Little Vasyl, I expect Little Vasyl to win 9-3 in probability 65-35

    If Walters wins that means that Loma isn't as special as many people think.
