Lomachenko v Walters

Another big one this weekend troops.

Who have we all got for this??

Lomachenko probably the most complete and skilled fighter on the planet up against a big punching Axeman Nicholas Walters.

Lomachenko has been pretty perfect since becoming pro apart from his 1 loss to Salido in his 2nd ever fight, lots of controversy surrounding the decision mind you, he was at his eye catching best last time out against Martinez and there's no better sight in boxing than Lomachenko going to work on his opponent

Walters drew his last fight against Sosa but before that had looked very capable when smashing Donaire and Darchinyan, he's got all the attributes to stay at the top level but I think he may of found his match against Lomachenko.

Thoughts?

is it BoxNation its on?

Gonna be a great fight to watch... you just know these styles are gel.

Loma should be able to do a number on Walters, however Walters does have a massive size and reach advantage and bangs a fair bit harder IMO. There is a good chance that Loma will take a lot of the rounds but very well might get dropped a couple of times, then again there is also a chance the he will dance circles round Walters leaving him swinging at shadows. To have any chance of beating Loma you need to be able to spoil his work and rough him up on the inside and Walters doesn't really have the tools to do that.

Also Walters isn't that much bigger than loma only 1" although his reach is a lot longer

to be fair its hard to assess Loma the same as most other boxers, due to the length of time he spent in the ams. Besides its all subjective many fans could lay down a valid reasons for a number of different boxers being the GOAT similar to P4P. Boxing can be like rock paper scissors were there can be an achilles heal for a particular fighters style.

I may get some stick for this but it could have been possible that Amir Khan could have the tools to beat someone like Mayweather (again im saying possibility !!) even tho he is clearly not on his level. Some fighters on their day can do things considered way above and beyond on their capabilities, where as some great fighters can more susceptible to "bad days" or not as consistent if that makes any sense .......

Walters has the same size advantage over Loma as Kovalev had over Ward. Don't think Loma needs a gift to win though, and he didn't need two years prep time and the home advantages and all Ukrainian judges

I believe Khan would've gave more problems then anyone else although after the Algieri fight I changed my mind!
