No te apures man.
Yeah I've see Lomachenko, and I too am impressed with his skills. If Yasnier can beat him or at least give him a good fight that will say a lot about the Cuban!

So Lomachenko easily beat the Boricua? Well let's see what the Cuban can do.

 

Tomorrow Robeisy against the Brit Selby . Let's see how it goes ....

 

Toledo is really psyched up about Lomanchenko , said he hasn't stoped thinking about their last fight in the World Championships when he was defeated by Vasily ( he suffered a kd too ) more than a year ago . Seems like the Cuban coaches been doing their homework on Lomachenko , it would be interesting to see how Toledo handles him this time . Last time they fought Toledo was too flatfooted and his defense wasn't good , Toledo has boxed differently in this tourney , now he moves more and uses his jab to set up his punches , he also looks more mature and his boxing skills have improved immensely . It's going to be a great fight and barring a robbery or favoritism toward Lomachenko he should win this if he sticks to his fight plan . Can't wait . Peace .

 

No Cuban boxer has lost twice in a row to the same foreign boxer since Stevenson in the 70's ( Visotsky ) , ¿ will Toledo be the next one ? . Peace .

 

Hmmm...That's an iteresting bit of trivia. :good

 

Loma did not easy beat the boricua, the young lion did His best with this veteran.

 

Props to cuba, they developed such a good system of boxing, its just too bad you'll rarely get guys who defect because of the risk. Really loving the style they put on, boxing, moving, pivoting using angles , feints, they put it all together. Cuba could have there fighters be top 5 p4p but we'll never rreally get to see. Sick style too when wearing long shorts, with the big cuban flag to sseperate themselves.

 

!!! War robeisy !!!

 

Wow that was class by Robeisy , good win for him , his path to the final is getting easier , he'll probably meet the Russian Aloyan in the final , the same one who beat him in the Worlds but , like Toledo , Robeisy has improved a lot lately so I think he will get his revenge . ! Great fight comming ! ( hopefully ) .
:happy
