    A lot of slick boxers in the past have been the boring. Rungundeux, Void, Lara, Ward, Sweat Flea tend to be on the boring side. Because they're all EXTREMELY defensive orientated boxers. Meaning they don't like initiate the action. Instead they will pick their spot which often results a lull in action. A lot of time is spent running and clinching instead of throwing punching.

    What amazes me about Lomachenko is his ability to do both he can box but also looks to initiate the fight as well. It's very high tech the method is memorizing. The way he dispatched Walters in a slick manner where he dished it out and bamboozled the Jamaican tweaker was awesome.

    Lomachenko is a breath of fresh air and good addition to the boxing circuit. Thank God for Loma, good riddance to Void roid Jr.I am never bored again watching a real slick operator fight.

    Great name Hi tech,the way he can throw two three punch combos whilst moving left or right is mesmerising,every punch is intended and he's cheeky with it too like how he pointed to Walters at the end and pointed down was so brilliant and had the intended effect it would seem?

    Loma is kind of an extremely skilled slickster/swarmer, and his countryman Usyk is too in a way (only bigger and slower)

    Lucky to have these highly skilled additions in the sport from countries that didn't even compete until the early 90's.

    I have to disagree. Most of that fight was boring and while Loma has sensational movement, it doesn't make for a great watch.

    Exciting but yesterday was not very entertaining because Lomachenko literally took all of Walters' punches away from him and Walters felt truly paralytic.

    Lol I like it. Add Usyk to that list too. He's going to make some serious noise soon.

    Anyone who was entertained by FMJ should be glued while watching Loma but we all know why they are not and continue to pick against and discredit him.

    Why is everybody linked to Mayweather the dude is retire as far as entertainment I find Loma and found Floyd both entertaining fighters personally. out of all the guys currently Loma just based off where he's at and where he could go has the best potential right now to come close to the legacies of Manny and Floyd.

    Realistically last night looked like a typical WW version of Mayweather, picked his spots early and turned it up when he felt the fight was clearly in his hands. I think the SFW version was more explosive then current Loma though just from watching both.

    Agree with youre first point. Disagree with the first part of youre second point but agree with the latter half of it. Floyd became boring to watch when he began running and holding most of his fights at ww. The only guy he really fought like Lomo did was Canelo because canelo is so slow and flat footed that floyd could throw two or three shots and move away before canelo could throw a shot. Lomo vs Floyd at sfw is a fight id pay $200 to see.

    Lomachenko is a breath of fresh air! One of the most talented fighters I've seen since Floyd and Roy.
