Comments Thread For: Lomachenko: Jorge Linares is a Very Dangerous Fight For Me

[chrisJS]

He isn’t recognized cause most of the opponents he fought have glaring flaws.

Rigo was old and small and the fight was incredibly boring.

Marriaga a bum

Sosa a club fighting bum

Rocky Martinez coming off two back to back wars to Salido

Walters one year lay off

Salido he lost

Only good fight he had was Gary russel Jr.

Dude needs to move up to he finally did but so late, he needs to fight Linares, Garcia and if he wants to be in history books tbud at 147. Needs to take a risk instead of being protected or given flawed opponents

Could've swore you were one of those that picked Rigo.

Why should a natural featherweight have to move to Welterweight? You use size as a reason not to give credit to the Rigo win but wouldn't he be even more disadvantaged at 147 than Rigo at 130? Also you didn't mention any excuses or the circumstances around the Salido fight were he didn't make weight and won a controversial decision in a fight marred by low blows.

I think you have a bias and thus have set an impossible standard for him to suit your agenda.

I am not the biggest fan of loma but your kinda hating a bit.

No, he is not hating a bit, he hates a lot. He hates eastern European fighters and even called Lomachenko a "fking bum". He even group named them to insult them as a whole.

If Loma wins it will be all about Linares' losses in 2012.

Linares better win or he's a bum.

He said Rigo would win the fight and school Lom so his BULLSHT about size is pure hindsight like all haters who conveniently move the goalpost each time.

I am not the biggest fan of loma but your kinda hating a bit. He doesn't need to go all the way up to 147 to show off his talents. Now I would be surprised if he even goes to 140lb at all and actually wins. Bud would kill him at 140 and murder him at 147. I would would to see him against Bradley at 140lb. Now that would had been a boxing match.

He's hating quite a bit actually. Dude said he finally needed to move up but it's too late when this is his 3rd weight class is one of the most moronic things I've read. Considering how few fights he fought its quite amazing how he's moving up so fast actually.

I don't see him topping out at 135. After Linares and maybe Easter Jr there's nothing left for him at 135. Need to go chase Mikey at 140.

Yeah, I kind of figured he did. Makes sense.

At least he's adapted now and has the rule that he's a bum unless he goes and beats Crawford at 147 instead of keeping picking against him and being wrong like he was with Rigo and most likely Walters too.

That's not a bad rule if you really get your kicks on hating other fighters. He's not a good fighter until he moves up X amount of divisions and is at a huge size disadvantage. But then again if Loma moved up in the summer and beat Crawford he'd have to beat Canelo or Jacobs and then it would be a Light Heavyweight etc; Moving the goal posts.

Unless you have insider knowledge and amazing luck you will never make money betting on favorites in any sport because 1 loss will wipe out the wins from 5-10 gains. One way to maybe win is bet on high odds outsiders when you think that the favorite is over-favored and maybe slipping - especially if you have spotted slippage. Think Chocolatito - many even said that 115 was a step too far - which also is another reason to bet when a good fighter is going up. For every Ward who successfully goes up there are 5 who don't.

Golovkin is past his prime now. I'd say it's favorable odds that he loses in his next five fights, definitely ten idf he goes that far. Just bet against him regardless of what you think as long as you can get 7-1 or 8-1 odds or better. [obviously won't be in a Canelo fight] - but lets say a Spike O'Sullivan fight. It's just a numbers game.

Flanagan is going to 140 this upcoming fight. I don't know what the odds are for Hooker but he is undefeated at 140 so if he was better than 5-1 I would be tempted as Flanagan never really set 135 on fire.
