LondonRingRules Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 (edited) Bit odd having Loma fight on a Friday that makes me think his shoulder may still be a bother after surgery, hence a fight against a guy nobody has heard of in LA. http://boxrec.com/en/boxer/659771 I expect Crolla to provide quality rds as a benchmark to let us know where Lomas health is. In his last outing he was still pretty much a one armed fighter that sorta bodes ill for his future.

Ton Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 Re: Lomachenko vs Crolla This Friday I don't think it will tell us much. Crolla is going over there to get beat. I assume it will be a nice payday sendoff into retirement for him. Crolla gave it a good go vs Linares first time round but was beaten and it was comprehensive second time round. Loma will stop him within 6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Undefeated Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 Re: Lomachenko vs Crolla This Friday Well on paper Walters and Rigo were better opposition than Crolla but I can assure you Crolla won't be saying no mas, he'll be in there 'till the towel comes in or the final bell sounds. More interesting than that this weekend is the undisputed middleweight championship bout between two undefeated P4P queens the following night, CANNOT WAIT for that one, All Access ep1 was brill, ep2 not so great but still decent.

LondonRingRules Posted April 12, 2019 Author Share Posted April 12, 2019 Re: Lomachenko vs Crolla This Friday --- About 10 hrs away from the fight, so watch for spoilers to come. Both made weight to spare yesterday, so, let's go! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WelshDevilRob Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 Re: Lomachenko vs Crolla This Friday Don't give Crolla much chance. He's a tidy boxer but it's a bit like Paul Smith going up against Andre Ward (though Ward was rusty and Loma isn't). Also, Crolla is better than Paul and achieved more. Good payday for Crolla and his chance against one of the best in the sport. Heard ticket sales are poor. Is it a Top Rank promotion? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Read that Loma will be getting over $1mill with some guarantee of over $3mill, while Crollas base split is $300k.....Hopefully there's some top up to that number somewhere! That figure isn't exactly life changing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LondonRingRules Posted April 13, 2019 Author Share Posted April 13, 2019 Re: Lomachenko vs Crolla This Friday --- Fringe contender Arnold Barbosa BTFO longtime champ and contender Mike Alvarado who ain't what he used to be. Inevitable really and sad to see. I remember when Alvarado got into a bar fight a couple weeks before a big fight and was knifed. As my dim memory recalls, he went thru with the fight. I'll look at his record to see if I can pick out the fight...later... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ton Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 Re: Lomachenko vs Crolla This Friday A devasting showcase for Loma that was! The gulf in levels was extreme, but Crolla was the mandatory so that's how it happened! I hope Crolla is okay after that, it was pretty savage. He should really retire, but I can imagine he doesn't want to end it in that fashion, might look to the domestic scene and try to rack up a home win at the Manchester Arena for a more dignified send off. Who knows. As for Loma, what can you say! He's a special talent. I flip flop between him and Crawford as to who is my pound for pound number 1, dependant on which one has just fought :haha: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
repsac Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 Re: Lomachenko vs Crolla This Friday That was difficult to watch. Crolla basically had no chance whats so ever in there against Lomachenko. Hopefully Richard Commey is next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_budweiser Posted April 15, 2019 Share Posted April 15, 2019 Re: Lomachenko vs Crolla This Friday Lomachenko is fantastic, his speed, combinations, footwork and judging his distance is a joy to watch. Crolla didn’t stand a chance before the fight and he didn’t offer much in the fight as expected. Credit to Crolla for getting in there and challenging himself. End of the third round was weird and I don’t think the ropes kept Crolla up. Loma might have got the stoppage if the ref didn’t start the count.

Cableaddict Posted April 15, 2019 Share Posted April 15, 2019 (edited) Re: Lomachenko vs Crolla This Friday I was stunned by the power of those short punches Loma was landing. He seems to be very suited to this division. He also seems to be continually refining his technique, fully embracing the mental /technical aspects of the pros. Apparently unstoppable .....
