No ****ing way! I am really curious to know what went down behind the scenes. As of late, Old Bob seems to be giving the finger to everyone, which leaves me to believe that Walters got shelved. The Jamaican likely had no other options. Lomachenko, Vargas, Salido, Miura, Walters and Corrales. Heck of a division.
Great fight. I was hoping for Walters or Salido II next for Loma. Is this one on HBO? If so, we may be seeing the benefits of the Canelo injury and HBO having some extra funds to reallocate.
I don't believe Dan because he doesn't know any fighters he just repeats second hand info and you all repeat his bull****. I will wait for an official word before I get excited. Whenever he tweets he should include his resting heart rate and his cholesterol level.
If true it's a good fight for Lomachenko to showcase. Walters isn't elite and Style wise....Lomo will have a field day with him.
Wow super fight! High risk, not a very high reward for future. Loma doesn't mind. Boxers must learn from Loma rather than taking the solely business approach of 'letting fights marinate'. Go out and get a constant cash flow, even in loss, you still get inflow. Walters already has a win at 130 against current WBA belt holder Jason Sosa. Walters has dangerous power and will be a threat, he also likes a bit of a war.

Dan Rafael @danrafaelespn 12m12 minutes ago I freaking LOVE Lomachenko. When he says he'll fight anyone he means it. Other fighters could take a lesson. #LomachenkoWalters @CarlMoretti Al Bernstein @AlBernstein 9m @danrafaelespn @CarlMoretti I agree
Nice fight. Lomachenko is a solid favorite but a Walters win is no major upset. HBO seems to be putting together a nice end of the year run if everything plays out favorably. There's a lot of good super featherweights out there, would be nice to see a couple of them facing off on the undercard of this to help set up future fights for the Lomachenko-Walters winner.
Completely agree but you know as well as I do if as expected Loma beats him up Walters will be an instant "bum" on here.
