That was 6 years ago, he’ll be so comfy at this weight.. I’m not one who has an idea what boxers walk round at but I can’t see the weight being as big a factor as ppl say. Unless Linares walks round at WW or something I can’t see this being an issue. I’m hoping for an exciting fight and it could start hesitant but both have too high a work rate to do a boring fight. I’m going Loma on points in a competitive fight, Linares having his moments and Loma having his, but not as one sided as some of Loma other bouts
Not really, amateurs usually box at weights near to their walk-around weights, and move to a lower division when pro. In amateur tournaments you might have to make-weight every few days for a period of weeks - you cannot get away with pro style weight cuts.
I remember when lomo and Luke Campbell both turned pro, They basically swapped divisions after winning golds in London. I always wanted to see them fight.
