Lomachenko vs Campbell on Saturday

I would pick Loma at 135 taking the size advantage into account. Crawford might be too big for him, but I would still make Loma my pick. Maybe I’m missing something but Crawford looks very ordinary in the ring and has never impressed me. Yes he wins but I can’t tell you one thing he does exceptional while I could come up with a laundry list for Loma.

 

Crawford would have walked Loma down and beat the ever living shit outta him.

 

I think the gap in skill and talent between Crawford and Loma is huge.

I also don’t get how you can think Inoue is the best in the world when the guy is still sort of unproven. He could lose his next fight by first round KO and it wouldn’t be that surprising because he just hasn’t reigned long enough to be given that credit yet.

 

When I see Crawford beat up on an Olympian who enjoys the same sort of physical advantages that Campbell did over Lomachenko then I will be impressed.

 

Some people just don't understand the importance of competition. And it goes both ways - they overrate guys just because they walked through weak competition and then underrate guys when they don't win every round against top competition.

 

inoue, lomachenko and crawford have all been world champions for about the same length of time, all spanning 3 divisons (10-12lbs).
