    Top Rank just released a live press conference for this fight and god... I'm so sick of George at this point. Dude is such a lame. He gets a robbery decision from Maxi Hughes and still think he's a top guy. He also can't keep Teo out his mouth but when Teo calls him out Kambozo and his team then declines it smh

    I hope Loma beats his brains in

    I love Geroge Kambosos Jnr. One of my favourites. I picked him to beat Teo. I would love for him to beat Loma but unless he get's that one good shot in, he has no chance. No hate, just honesty. One of my faves.

    But Loma will school him. It's like level 10 up against level 6.

    I love Kambosos as well I also love Loma. I have a feeling George might be getting Loma at the right time I think the robbery loss to Haney has taken a toll and his heart isn't in it as much, he might've lost the hunger. Crazy stuff seems to go down when these older legends come to Australia. Would love for George to get the upset but there is no shame in losing to a legend like Lomachenko. May the best man win.

    Loma might well have lost the hunger but I don't see that as enough for Kambosos to win, to be honest.

    Didnt Kambosos beat Teofimo who beat Loma?

    Sometimes boxing can be a strange sport because, if as you say Loma beats Kambosos then it would be another case of Duran beat Leonard who beat Hearns who beat Duran or better yet, Mayorga beat Forrest twice who beat Mosley twice who of course, beat Mayorga twice.

    And Perth is really that bad? Funny it doesnt look that bad on the photos...

    He did mate.

    And yes, it is a funny sport and different guys beat each other obviously like any sport. I think Winky Wright beat Forrest twice as well?

    Perth's just not my cup of tea. I'd prefer Melbourne, Brisbane or Sydney. It does have some good attractions if you go it's actually ok. Just better places to have it. TBH The RAC Arena is shithouse imo. Not suited for a boxing fight I've been there to watch tennis and BBALL a couple of times. The Crown hotel is good but that's about it really lol.

    Nah sorry man I'm not going to sweet talk ya. Not the worst place, but far from the best.

    He lost to Maxi Hughes. outpointed, outgunned by Haney although Haney is a legit boxer.

    GKJ changed his game plan in the second fight, for one round. He was moving this way, that way, slipping and then throwing. Then in round 2 he was moving this way, that way, slipping, but not throwing. He just wasted all his energy through movement and no end product. Wasted footwork=wasted energy. He said after the fight '' everytime I was trying to come in, you'd jab me. I'd have to re-set '' der. No ****. He was just devoid of idea's and had no extra game plans. Again, Haney is a great boxer he's the future. But again Loma beat Haney. That's how good Loma is. He beat him at 35 or 36 years of age. Loma looked like a million dollars and has the i.q, movement, game plans to beat GKJ quite handily.

    Take nothing away from MP he makes valid and solid points too. But I will look at what Loma has done and what GKJ has done and I'll go with logic and probability. And I do hope I'm wrong. I am a GKJ fan I like the way he's always believed in himself and he has a hard worth ethic. He really is a Greek Trojan.

    Great post but..it's sorry WOman...lol

    I began transitioning after registering here. Long story short, Im lucky: my mom looked like a Puerto rRcan Marilyn Monroe when she was young, and i got half my genes from her lol..now, I model for a porn site as my way of earning my beans. But this site's mods right here still havent answered my email about changing my name here.

    But I don;t get offended like my nephew who will get aggressive if you remind him he was a woman once. So, don;t worry, I know you did not know and IM not offended.

    Anyways, back to the topic....I heard the fight will be on ESPN, if so I pray its not on their streaming service. As much as I love the NBA, id much rather watch a good, quality boxing match. Specially a Loma fight. I dont neccessaryly think he is an all time great yet but he is among the best we have today. I wonder if he will be the next Davey Moore/David Reid.

    Sort of unrelated but only sort of, I was talking to the gas station dude right now, and he loves the former Gervonta Davis,. We agree he is one of the best in "men's" boxing these days also. Id loved to keep talking boxing with him but it was 5 AM at a drug infested corner lol so I had to go.
