Anyone watching? Vargas-Demarco has been very entertaining.

I've been impressed with Vargas ability to take way too many punches his last few fights, but still finish strong. Pac would pound on him for a while. Good back and forth going on.

Demarco doesn't have good enough movement and he doesn't get his punches off quick enough. Vargas on his way to a comfortable points victory.

Really enjoyed the battle between Vargas and DeMarco - high energy stuff. Good win for Vargas.

Lomachenko fight is a huge mismatch. Vasyl is bigger, faster and way more skillfull. I am not sure if his opponent has landed any clean punches.

The movement of Lomachenko is something else. He's like a wasp round your head, you move your eyes to look and suddenly he's round the other side.

Obviously not the best opponent, but I think he's acceptable given Loma's lack of pro experience and the fact that it's a mandated bout.

He just mocks his opponent without saying anything or sticking his tongue out. Work rate is also beyond anything. Nice juices he is taking !

Loma is complaining about his hand hurting.

I love him and the way that he fought for a world title in his second fight. but I find him odd to watch. Sometimes he looks amazing, and the most natural boxer ever... but also he still gets hit clean now and again, esp in the body.

Also I notice he never holds or works on the inside. Hard to get out of that habit after 400 am fights

Loma obviously in a different class, but I still see a fair bit of amateur in him. I would've liked to see him get a stoppage and I think he was capable of that.

Seems like he hurt his hand in the 7th.

Lomachenko with one hand looks better than most featherweights in the division.

I agree. His movement is excellent and his main source of defense in my view.

Yes, he hurt his hand, and everybody including his opponent figured that out. It is hard to get a stoppage without your strongest hand.

He absolutely didn't look amateur when he could use two hands.

Hmm, Manny-looking fighter is being destroyed by a taller opponent. Not a good sign for Manny :lol:

Ha ha, me too. I only went to make a cheese sandwich and came back thinking I'd lost an hour of my life. Alien abduction? :OhYes:

Dude looks like Manny but fights like Fanny. He sucks. All Shiming has to do is sit down on his stuff and this midget is outta there.

I wish!

Algieri with the upset would be the perfect result in my mind.
