    Set for 19th September apparently.. long time coming.. who u got? Does Loma have too much pedigree for the young upstart or will the lay off & age gap favour Lopez? Gulf in experience is huge..

    I think Lomachenko wins on points, though a Lopez win wouldn't shock me all that much, It's a 65/35 type fight.

    After watching Lopez destroy Commey I was thinking Lopez might have a good chance of catching Loma and getting the KO. I watched a few of his fights again recently on YouTube and I've changed my mind and expect Loma to win a UD. As athletic as he is, Lopezs movement isn't that great, and I think Loma will bamboozle the kid. Loma UD.

    I think Loma wins most of the fight, but I think Lopez is gonna catch him at some point and get the ko

    I think the odds for this one will be fairly close, which means good things for my Loma payout.

    At this point in their respective careers, Loma is just too much for Teo. I think with a few more years, a bit of seasoning and a few hard fights where Teo learns a bit more about himself, then he could potentially have enough to win.
    We could see the return of nomaschenko here though, if he starts to dominate the young fighter may get pulled in between rounds.

    With all of that said, this is tremendous news, and easily the best fight on the books at the moment. Great stuff. I hope it comes off.

    Could be a matter of 'too soon' for Teo. A young upstart getting schooled by a vet can be damaging to a young fighter. Hoping this isn't the case.

    I still can't believe some people give Loma **** for his opposition..

    Guy moved to LW & faced Linares, Pedraza, Campbell & now Lopez.. 3 of whom held LW titles when Loma fought them & one is a fellow Olympic gold medalist.. 16 fights he will have had in September... the above plus Walters, GRJ, Rigo, Sosa, Martinez, Salido.. its mental the run he's been on.. numerous undefeated opponents..

    If he beats Teo, he is well on his way to building an ATG resume.

    Loma gets off the floor and then wipes it with Teo.

    Lopez by KO — and I dislike the guy. Lomachenko's been getting hit more and more and I think Lopez will be able to catch him and knock him out. Lopez is a big ass dude.

    The layoff may affect both, but hats off to both for agreeing to fight next.

    People thinking Lopez has any chance... LMAO
    Same people said Loma vs Rigo was a 50/50
    Loma vs Walters was a 50/50
    Loma vs Linares was a 50/50

    Loma will destroy Lopez and Lopez is a good fighter.
    It's more like a 95/5

    If Lopez pulls this off in emphatic style by dominating Loma, I will be his biggest fan but I can't see it happening.
