Vasyl Lomachenko vs. Jorge Linares - 12 May 2018

[rab]

That fat guy in the background looks a bit sinister man

He's got a rapey stare

All I see in this photo is two little blue bikini bottoms.

Is there something else?

the one on the right looks as if she has chunky gammons My favourite type of flap......... Either that or a small cock

i would be on her until i had a heart attack, a stroke or my cock fell off.

[KiwiRider]

Oh dear. I didn't realise how huge the height disparity was

The size of the knuckles on the one on the right should make up for that a bit

Yeah, she is a solo mum from South Auckland with 3 brothers who all fight. I would say growing up that way, there would have been a lot of punching going on before the gloves did.
She is really up against it here though. I don't expect her to go easilly. They breed them tough

[Ruthless-RKO]

Might take a power nap.. reckon he'll be out by 3am?

Hope so but I heard 2am

loma fight is on after the adames-barrera fight on now, which is in the 6th round of ten

If lomachenko takes Linares to pieces this will be his coming out parade; #1 p4p and serious discussions regarding his GOAT potential.

Linares is poor defensively. Lomachenko should have very few problems taking him apart.

[jamamb]

i can see it taking a few rounds for loma to get going. he often starts slow the first round or two and linares speed + length could take a bit to get timed, but i think loma should have him down eventually

[jamamb]

fight up next. should start soon.

[brilo33]

should be a cracker

you might be too late - wake up !

[coneye]

What a good fight that was ,

[Ruthless-RKO]

A lot of close rounds but before rd 19, I had Loma up 87-83

At the same time, the officiak 3 judges:

86-84 Linares
84-86 Lomachenko
85-85 Even

[ElJefe]

Very enjoyable fight. I gave Loma most rounds but Linares was in all of them, did himself no harm at all tonight. Still a brilliant fighter. Felt like the commentators were on Lomachenko's ball sack a bit too early. Their socks went brown when he got dropped! But Loma did great to get up and stop the bigger man. The shot to finish the fight was perfectly picked.

I had Lomachenko up 86-84 at the end of round 9.

[jamamb]

i had loma up 86-84, i dont know how anyone could possibly have linares ahead though he did fight well

loma is excellent but i dont think 135 is his best weight and i think garcia beats him

[happyNY18]

Loma's accuracy is incredible

[ElJefe]

The judge that had Linares up by 2 points (Robin Taylor) gave him the 4th round. Wtf!? Just off the top of my head I thought that was the clearest round for either fighter up until that point, and I gave it to Loma.

awful card, theres no argument for having linares ahead.

Last thought on this fight before I fall asleep - I've lost a lot of respect for Ismael Salas during this. He chose to be part of the Haye-Bellew circus, no doubt knowing full well the condition Haye's body was in, instead of being with his fighter of 6 years who was going into the biggest fight of his life against the best boxer he'd ever stepped in a ring with. Linares is a brilliant boxer in his own right, but brilliant boxers still need brilliant trainers. The outcome of Haye-Bellew was decided before the first bell, Salas' presence in London was irrelevant. He could have made a difference had he been with Linares. Maybe he wouldn't have won anyway, maybe he still would have got knocked out. But for Salas to prioritise Haye, who he's worked with for less than a year, is very poor form IMO. Complete mercenary!

[Taansend]

Full fight. Not sure how long it will be here. I'm watching it now

[jamamb]

reported by boxing scene that linares was 152 to lomas 138

[Srebmun]

Full fight. Not sure how long it will be here. I'm watching it now

Cheers for that

Great fight. How the feck the judges had their cards up to that point is incredulous + the compubox stats were ridiculous.

I didn't score the rounds but Loma was easily in front by several/a few rounds. 3 weight Champ in 12 fights, wow.

As an aside, Oscar is starting to look like Wayne Newton.

[jamamb]

ya the punch stats were bizarre

[Ruthless-RKO]

[Yes We Can]

Good fight to watch. I gave Linares 2 rds plus the knockdown I think, but he certainly wasn't embarrassed.

Lomachenko is so easy to watch. I'm not sure if he could beat Garcia purely through sheer size but it would be Razor close.
