It would be such a high level bout that my head might explode in anticipation. I wouldn't blink for that entire bout.

lamechenko gets fatigued after 3 rounds.........I've seen all of his fights without head gear & his most recent debut. lamechenko has decent footwork for the 1st 2 rounds & then he starts getting extremely sloppy,...sometimes he'll even get caught up of using his legs for a whole round and forgets about throwing one punch. he has no jab at all from what i can see.........i personally don't see anything special......and if you can't see the talent gab between rigo & lamechenko theres something seriously wrong. rigo throws a jab, pivots, throws a blazing left to the body. darts in & out like nobodies business.....can and has always been able to hold his work rate after 3 rounds. his twitch muscles are ridiculous. like i said, he looks like a little cyborg at times the way he pops you & goes back into position. example (see the 12 round of the donaire fight. watch the left that blinded donaire for the remaining of the fight) he hit donaire and went back into position so smoothly as if he was a robot..........
rigo from what I see is actually ahead of his time & special (i don't see that with too many amatuer fighters. but rigo is)......lamenchko is more of a product that arum & hbo is desperately trying to build into a superstar. i don't see lamenchko as a special fighter.
Not sure how a guy with a 396-1 amateur record and two gold medals can be a product of HBO/Arum (surely the hype is warranted?)
But hey to each their own.

Originally posted by joesaiditstrue View Postlomachenko carried ramirez to the 4th round, it was pretty obvious at least to me
he knew from round one that he could tag ramirez whenever he wanted to, he seemed to want to get some rounds in
dude is legit as much as a 1-0 guy could be lol

Byrd says he's even more impressed with him than he was going in and he was already impressed before that lol

he even says he doesnt believe in making predictions for fights, he just likes to break down the style matchups

^ This
And yep, I agree with this
you think that lamechenko carried remirez?..........i don't think so. i just think he gassed a little just like against BASHENOV and others.
skip to 12:55 to watch the 4th & 5th..........gassed.
look at how sloppy he looks after 3 rounds. footwork all over the place no defense. coming in predictable and fatigued.
how can you not see the blatant talent gap between him & rigo........

(thats been my experience)

How was he gassed against Ramirez? I thought he looked good in the later rounds. I think he might of carried him because look at the first round for example he had him in a lot of pain after the bodyshot KD (Ramirez himself said he's never been that hurt) and I believe if Lomachenko really wanted to he would of smelled blood and pounced on him and finished it. obviously he has a killer instinct and judging by how he kind of backed off and just looked relaxed and content to keep on going, I think he wanted to get some rounds in.
