Comments Thread For: Andre Ward: Lomachenko vs. Mikey Garcia is 50-50 Super Fight!

First, there's nothing Andre can say that I care to listen to. Another sh it HBO analyst that's as biased about fighters as they come. A more articulate RJJ. Second, Loma beats Mikey as easy as anyone else.

But half of you picked the midget to ko Loma I have the names

I love you man!!!

Lomachenko is a phenomenal talent and skillswise is up there with elites due to his unorthodox footwork, shifting and always creating angles and throwing decoy combos to open up a target!

But Garcia is another level of talent, he's so fundamentally sound that he rarely makes mistakes in the ring! He's as disciplined as they come and his jab is one of the best. He showed in the Broner fight that he can fight as a pressure fighter instead of the out boxer behind the jab looking for counters!

I would pick Garcia to win, Loma is very good but i think timing and fundamentals plus enough power cab offset Lomas footwork, speed and ability to use different angles constantly!

Gonna be a great fight, and if Loma wins then he definitely takes pound for pound number 1, he would have arguably the best resume in boxing if he can somehow take another belt at 130 and move up an beat a champ there then beat Mikey.....that would be nuts!

Loma IS P4P #1.

I would love to see this fight. I am a huge Mikey fan and I think Loma is a very special boxer. I think Mikey, Crawford or Spence are the only guys from 130-147 that have any chance to beat Loma.

Hope they make this fight.

Same guys will pick Ortiz over Wilder see who they are

Hmm that's an interesting point

[Eddy Current]

True, I really want to see that fight though, I’d pay for it

It was on ESPN this past Saturday, bro

At 135 Loma will still have a substantial speed advantage. Mikey has the power advantage. I think Loma will frustrate Mikey. He won't be standing there in front of him like Broner. I favor Loma to win this one by UD.

I kind of feel the same way. Mikey takes a while to set up. Loma is moving the whole time and is really hard to locate. He doesn't have any power to speak of, but he boxes Mikey pretty easily imo.

Mikey is my guy, but I think power is the only edge he'd have in the fight. Is that enough? It's unlikely. But you never really know lol Can't wait to see it.

Lol Loma would be pity pat slapping Mikey if Mike doesn't cut him off. Still wanna see it though. Good fight.

[TheSlickster]

Loma would probably beat Mikey imo. As good as Mikey is, Loma is just on a whole different level and would frustrate him. Although the Broner fight Mikey dominated, I feel Mikey was a bit hesitant when trying to unload on Broner. Lomachenko would exploit that. Crawford would definitely be Loma's greatest challenge though stylistically

this is the fight to make in 2018!! if more people starts talking about it, maybe we might get to see it.
