    Lomachenko is amazingly talented. I also think he handles Walters...and I'm a big fan of Walters too.

    But will Walters' team want the fight? Walters is compromoted by Top Rank and Leon Margules..who is one of Haymon's puppets, so if the rumors are true that Walters want to leave TR for PBC, I believe he would be "advised" not to face Loma first.

      He definitely is a handful for anyone at or near his weight class. I really like his angles of attack, they are not predictable at all. That and his natural reflexes and speed, are fun to watch.

      What impresses me the most about him though, is he has the Floyd like ability to know what his opponent is going to do before they actually do it. Very high ring IQ and Awareness.

No one else at 126 can touch him... Walters has power but in every other dimension Loma is superior... speed/footwork/technical skills etc etc...

        The biggest fight in boxing is the waiting...
        Walters destroyed a seasoned Champion in Donaire after knocking darchinyan out in 5 and lomachenko is just now learning to foul back.

        I think Walters is a very dangerous fight for Lomachenko. He can't do to Walters what he did in has last 2 fights.

        Walters is a dangerous fight for anyone at 126. If I was managing lomachenko I wouldn't put him anywhere near walters for a little while.

          But Donaire was moving up in weight, right? Loma is a real 126 pounder... Walters has serious power no doubt, but Loma has incredible defense let's not forget...

          If I were Arum, I would make this fight ASAP before Walters vanishes under the protective umbrella of Haymon forever.

            He already won a title at 130. I think he had adjusted to the weight at that time, he was killing himself to make 122.

              The way he adjusted after the first couple rounds was impressive

                Agree, hope this fight will happen this year.

                  Lomachenko is a master at his craft, and is a thing of beauty to watch. The sky is the limit for him. When he starts speaking english, he will transcend into the upper echelons of the sport. He is simply a phenom. I don't see anybody beating him at any point. Salido is lucky he fought him so green, and got away with fouling the entire night. That will never happen again in Lomachenko's career.
