That's shit.

So much for Arum saying last week that Loma WANTED it in the UK.

 

[dkos]

I thought Hearn and Arum did a deal where Hooker-Ramirez would be on a Matchroom show, with Loma-Crolla promoted by Top Rank?

 

[mjhealy]

Basically that statement reads. The money offered to fight in UK was not very good.

Well Eddie isn't winning a purse bid is he.

No point in following Loma's career closely any more, he's wasting his prime on pointless fights and I don't know who's to blame, but his team should be giving him the advice to bin belts if it means bouts that will do nothing for his legacy. It's a step up from Crolla, but it's a waste of time all the same.

It’s alright saying this, but you can’t deny, boxers like the belts! And you can’t really blame them, they put their life into it, so probably understandable they want something physical to show for it, beyond a healthy bank account?

Legacy is great, but you can’t really nail it to the wall to show visitors how good you were can you? And I doubt that many guests want to sit down and read through your boxrec to prove how good you were?

28 votes, 28 to Loma. Kind of indicates this will be an exhibition.

Deal was done 3 weeks ago for 31st August at the 02 , Loma on holiday at the minute hence the delay in announcing and spin fro Eddie to make it look like he has pulled it out of the bag at the last minute. Looking like Kell on the undercard

Looks like the reason the announcement to this is being delayed is down to Hearn worrying that it will hit ticket sales for the Whyte fight which aren't selling well apparently

Luke's gonna give Loma a better fight than many think, I think. A good counter-indicator is pedders.

 

[Zico]

Great to have Lomachenko fighting over here, cant wait for Usyk to light-up some Heavyweights too.

 

[Celtic Warrior 2.0]

Loma will dominate him, on what basis do people think it will be difficult for him? Campbell is a good fighter but a long way off an ATG like Lomachenko
