Vasyl Lomachenko' debut without the headgear

:huh
He's going pro next year 100%, he's repeated it many times. WSB is just competition to prepare him for the transition (Lomachenko's own words).

 

When you have that sort of timing and skill while applying pressure then everybody can be hurt. In his two WSB fights he's made both of his opponents just try to survive, and they're only 5 round fights. You can't stop pressure being applied unless you can hurt them when they're coming in. Have you seen Lomachenko's defence? He knows what his opponent is throwing before they do. Worst case scenario if Lomachenko can't hurt an opponent is that he'll just win every round for a lopsided points decision. Whitaker never had any problems and he certainly had less power than Lomachenko.
I've seen Lomachenko win fights in every manner anyway, he can fight from the outside as well. If something doesn't work then Lomachenko adapts. He is literally the most complete fighter I've ever seen, it's easy to point out weaknesses for any fighter and styles to beat them but not so with Lomachenko.

 

:rofl
Are you serious? Things are hard on the lower back when you don't have your TA, Multifidus, QL, Erector Spinae, Abdominals, obliques, glutes and other muscles working and you have poor posture. He's an extremely well conditioned athlete, you have back problems when you're poorly conditioned and you have muscular imbalances. I don't think you have any idea how injuries happen or how the human body works.

 

Tszyu wasn't a smart trainer, as you say he had an excellent work ethic. In fact too much, he tried to work too hard for too long. That means he trained at a lower intensity and never periodised or focused on a certain aspect of fitness at any particular time. He lost speed and stamina because of his overtraining and to make it all worse he would often only have one small meal a day, he starved himself of the nutrients to perform. Tszyu thoroughly believed in 'more pain, more gain'. He could've had a longer career and looked far better in fights if he was smart about training. He regressed as his career went on.

 

If he was African-American and you knew anything about boxing you'd think the same :good
