How do you see this unfolding, bro?

At least past 10 rounds. Decision probably goes to Tank. MD or SD.

I hope so. I really don't like fast, blowout fights.

What? You meant older, tiny Rigo? How old was Rigo when Lomachenko fought him? 38?

I wrote younger Rigo. That means ...younger version of Rigo. When Loma asked for him being at 126 lbs and when Rigo refused because 500k wasn't enough for him and Arum didn't offer more.

One, Davis IS NOT 2 DIVISION World Champ.
Two, Loma's desire for specific opponents NEVER had effect on who he fought in his fights (Salido rematch, younger Rigo, Mikey, ALL chanpions at 126, 130 etc.) but he assured Davis is on his radar recently. Loma said that he doesn't believe in Mikey fight in 2019 due to weight jump to 147 and hopes he fights too-much-talking Davis at 130 or 135. He added that 135 looks big as boxers are so bigger than him so he doesn't reject fighting at 130 again.

Wow. That contradicts the post Pedraza statements he made. But yeah ok. Oh and good catch on the weight division. Two time champ not two weight division.

How old was that younger Rigo? 36/37 then?

How experienced Loma was back then? 5-6 pro wins? Also 4 pounds lighter. Who did you pick to win back then?

He should’ve dared to be great and fought Lomachenko!

His chances were very slim but he does have that equalizer in KO power in both hands and he also attacks the body which I suspect is Loma’s weakness besides bringing constant pressure!


So he at least would’ve had a chance likely put up a better fight than Walters, Russell Jr and Rico!

He loses a close competitive fight Or even drops Loma once or rocks him badly he could ante up a rematch at 135 for more glory!

Now he’s stuck with Haney and Easter jr!

Don’t see the other fights happening due to no money or fan interest thru different networks like a Loma vs Tank fight would!

I agree, he should've taken that fight, even though he was young as f**k! I think Arum should let Teofimo Lopez "dare to be great," and fight Lomachenko in 2019! Honestly, I wish Lomachenko had dared to be great, and turned pro before he was 25, but hindsight is 20/20!

Tank is a thick guy! I think he could fight Mikey Garcia @ 135 or 140! He'll probably make more money fighting Mikey Garcia than Lomachenko! Tank vs. Prograis @ 140 would be a great fight too! 140 is on fire, even Teofimo Lopez is planning to move to 140 in 2020! Tank's future is bright, if he can beat Abner Mares!

Huh??? What does this have to do with Loma???

I got Mares all day in this one (unless Davis comes in overweight and gets another advantage). He's far from a shot fighter as some people are implying and he's been wanting to move up for a while now. Maybe 126 was a struggle for him.

This is Davis's first A level opponent and I think it will show. It's gonna be good.
