    In for a quick nibble.
    Pretty ordinary fighters in the main event, but I rather enjoyed the undercard where that slow, soft striking Russian was getting popped in the head over and over again without putting up his guard, he was an unusual character, but it said he was undefeated?... are there really 14 fighters in the world worse than that?

    Correction he was a Ukrainian - but I'm not sure if we're allowed to like those ones.

    He's faster than Juanma.

    But time will tell if he's really any good.

    I think Gervonta Davis is fucked the first time he faces a guy with pop and a good chin.

    the guy he faced showed a good chin and also has good power. i am not saying davis has now passed all tests. but the guy he faced saturday was no push over.

    If I was describing Lomachenko, good chin and power would be far down the list in the adjectives I would use

    Davis looked excellent but Lomachenko fucks him up.

    130 is pretty devoid of any talent, so Davis in luck.

    I maintain that when he faces a guy who can handle his pop, and hit him back with power, he'll be in trouble. Call it a hunch, I don't have much to base it on.... but I have my doubts that his chin is great.

    We dont know how his chin is because he never gets hit. Loma has very good power.

    Loma is a sharp hitter more than a one-punch guy, but his accuracy and skill means he's going to hit you A LOT. Davis won't be able to handle that.

    Loma is a top 3 P4P fighter. It's not gonna take somebody THAT good to beat Davis.

    Walters power seemed to wane when he moved up. Plus there are the obvious question marks about him now after the way he lost to Loma. I think Davis beats him to be honest.

    Dickless certainly has the ABILITY to beat Davis. We know he lacks the heart, but I wouldn't be shocked if he could do it. Loma's an impossible target to find.... Davis isn't.

    no he is not. Loma is not a feather fisted guy, but he's not a power puncher either. As for his chin, as you say, we dont really know yet, though he was stunned a bit by Martinez (still, it doesn't mean anything since Martinez is a hitter).

    What makes him special is his movement and skills, not his chin and power.

    Has Gamboa even fought since the TC fight?????

    Prime Gamboa would beat the living fuck outta Davis. But prime Gamboa is looonngg gone.

    Gervonta likely wins at this point.

    Problem Is, When the Tough Gets Going, Walters is the 1st Motherfucker Looking for the Exits...

    Walters DOESN'T Deserve to have Another Fight Televised, Never Mind Against an Up and Coming Prospect, in What Would Be a "Crossroads" Bout...Now that we KNOW Walters Lacks Balls, he Needs to Go Ahead and COMPLETE the Transgender Process...

    Maybe Reinvent Himself as a FEMALE Boxer...

    Lettuce not squabble among ourselves, I say we shouldn't fear the cold war, rather, embrace it, get into the spirit of it, breathe in those pre-game ceremonies. Sorry about those Cowboys Reed,.. I watched, - that was a rough ending, they deserved better after the season they had.

    Perhaps he/she could challenge that broad who knocked out Rousey.

    Davis looks like Broner, the good Broner. I wouldn't let Davis near Lomachenko for a while. His style can make a lot of money in the meantime. Excellent win.

    I thought DeGale would outclass Jack. Excellent fight. Jack is better than I thought.
