Now that's what you call an undressing of a top fighter.

    I'm not gunna bash Walters eventhough I was disappointed he gave up. He was just of his depth, I had it a 60/40 fight going into it but that was man against boy in there. Lomanchenko showed why there are legitimates claims for him being p4p 1. Complete domination of his best opponent to date, it was a similar perfomance to Crawford v Postol, where it's close on paper but only on paper.

    Both postol/crawford and loma/walters played out exactly how I thought it would. Kov/Ward I was wrong about, but 2/3 aint bad, though I got 3/3 picks right.

    Btw you should bahs Walters, even if he was completely outclassed he wasnt hurt even close to the level of Ortiz/Alvarado, he did take a beating in the 7th but he didnt look being close to stopped at any point. Walters deserves far more **** than those 2 who were crucified for quitting. I mean look at Alvarados eye ffs, and Victors jaw hanging down lol, and then look at Walters who didnt even look like he had a scratch on him.

    Bunch of fools on here still want to insist that Walters is elite. I bet they try and put him in the p4p rankings based on the strength of him lasting 7 rounds with Lomachenko.

    Very impressed with Loma on how easy he made this fight look. I didn't expect that.

    lol I didn't wanna bash Walters and say he's crap and downplay Lomas win coz going in to the fight Walters was a top guy in the division. The way this guy quit was disgraceful he had no heart, he only got hurt in one of the round and what's worse was he always had a punchers chance and he forfeited that.
    This is why you have to rate Wards performance, he got up when the going got tough and made it competitive.
    Good picks I had Ward, Crawford and Loma but none of them played out how I thought lol

    Nah that's not what I meant by giving him crap. I'm talking about giving him crap for being a quitter.

    Neither did I thought Walters would be a big threat but he shitted his pants and the first sign of adversity. He didn't even go to the body when the opportunity was there, obviously left that axe at home I guess.

    And I thought Loma would be the smaller guy, but he looked like the bigger man in there tonite, and at 5'7 I think he could fit well in the 135-140 weight classes one day.

    Going into the fight Walters had some good scalps but elite is Loma, Walters is just a good fighter, he was just out of his depth and he got his heart exposed.

    Man i don't know what would happen in that Crawford fight but that's the only guy other than Rigo who has a decent shot of beating Lomachenko.

    You put big money on Walters? I would be fuming with that ****er if it was me, at least stick around in the fight and see if you can land a Hail Mary for Christ sake.
