    I didn't say he boxes the way he does primarily to be entertaining. That's a byproduct of his preferred style, obviously...

    Compared to a Mayweather, Lomachenko uses his body and head as bait and likes to 'move the fire' if you'll pardon the Atlas-ism, but the marks he gets are cosmetic. When Linares floored him it had a lot to do with overconfidence.
     
    Birmingham and minemax like this.

    Linares was the best he ever fought. And Linares was able to time him.
    Timing and speed are a killer combo.
    But Loma, like always, took over and broke the opponent down.

    Don't include Mayweather. Only Pacquiao and Rigo.
