    Davis is not ready for someone like loma. Loma has too much lateral movement for Davis and the fight would look alot like the Russell fight. Davis has more power than Russell and would have some moments but he would get picked apart by loma. With that said I'd like to see this fight down the road maybe late 2018 when Davis is more seasoned.

    I feel im being a little biased for davis in that post though. Meaning, i have always said if a fighter seeks to fight for a title and wants to be called a champion, they should be ready to fight anyone. Youre not a prospect anymore... you're a champion. There should be no protecting champions. But I just think he is in need of a lot more development. I think if he stays focused, has a bit more adversity in the ring (quality experience) adds some dimensions, improves his stamina, and fills out a bit more as a man, he will give Loma some good, good work. Awesome fight in two years. Amazing fight actually.

    lol Davis is not ready for Lomachenko. However, I would love to see Lomachenko fight Gamboa.

    Davis is nothing like Russell, he's clearly far, far more talented. People talk about Loma like he's invincible, give this kid a couple years more experience and he'll be more than competitive. Davis is a special talent.

    loma is too versatile and seasoned. Davis is solid let him get a few more fights. Davis would be too available to hit right now.

    You said it all. In this weight division I don't see anyone bothering Loma at all. He needs to smash Salido but I don't think Salido wants the rematch because he knows how it will end... It will be bloody!

    If you can't see Davis is a special talent I don't know what to tell you. Gary Russell comparison is laughable. Watch more boxing.

    Unlike you, I've seen plenty of their fights other than their encounters with Lomachenko and Pedraza(which is ridicuolus to compare them based on those fights given the difference in levels of their opponents, to claim Davis is far, far, far more talented based on those fights is beyond laughable).

    I'm not saying Davis is not more talented than Russell Jr, I'm saying It's too soon to tell. You're not really making a fair assesment though, you're just being the typical anti-EE holding on for dear life to a new hope as usual.

    Wow, you cant even rate an American fighter around here nowadays without being labelled anti EE :facepalm: A new hope? That is really sad dude. Stop projecting.

    Davis and Russell are both black and American. The comparison ends there. You clearly want him to fail, that's fine but don't get mad because I'm high on the kid.

    I think he's talented too, I never want fighters to fail. To claim he's not far more talented than Russell Jr isn't wanting him to fail. The only reason you said Davis is far, far, far more talentend than Russell is because GRJ is a name on Lomachenko's resume, so yes, you were being anti-EE.

    I agree that he's special talent. But Russell jr is very talented, too.

    Also Davis is short fighter with t-rex arms, like Russell jr.

    I think Davis gives Loma tough fight, but not now, maybe in 2-3 years.

    Then again I'm not sure they will be in the same weight class by then.
