    Never seen "poetry in motion" personified so perfectly, Usyk is just a cruiserweight Loma, just not AS good, which is in no way a criticism

    There's no chance that Warren will feed Flanagan to Loma. They might as well hand him the title if they decide to do that.

    You should check him out but anyway you'll see tommorow.. He's a very consistent performer, fast , good work rate, tough as nails, solid chin, punchers harder than his record suggests , comes to win. A lot of his best wins that he's had have been on ESPN in the USA against tough Mexicans and Mexican-Americans that are much better than their records suggest! and he beat the undefeated Fedor Papazov.
    I see it as a 60/40 fight in Flanagan's favour, if Flanagan isn't at his best... he loses.

    yep he's definitely a top 6-10th best lightweight. the toughest voluntary flanagan could have chose

    this is what Petrov's promoter had to say about his fighter

    What are Petrov’s qualities as a fighter?
    I discovered him during his involvement in the ESPN Boxcino Lightweight tournament in early 2014 and, trust me, between the ropes, he’s the real deal. You only have to watch his tapes to appreciate that he’s relentless, smart, can box or punch and he’s blessed with a very good eye. Petr has a real understanding of what is going on in the ring at any given moment and he can adopt accordingly. He gives a 110% effort every time.
