There’s still talent and time. But I’m just disappointed at this point with all “4 Princes” at Lightweight. Tank went life and death with a tough but limited Cruz. And likely now, no real dangerous fights anytime soon. Haney is talented, but his lack of power is glaring. Teofimo and Ryan have a lot of issues swirling outside of the ring. Lomachenko may still be the Lightweight by default at this point. I think Kambosas is more Buster Douglass than Bernard Hopkins (an older spoiler).
This is why you can't listen to the hype from the promoters no matter what they call themselves. This is why these guys are in NO Hurry to fight each other or anyone close to a dangerous fighter, keep building a name by telling people you are the best no one can challenge you blah blah. It is all noise. The more fights a fighter has the more he is exposed to the truth in the ring. Nothing wrong with that just don't charge my $ 80 to watch it happen. Hype it, talk it up just keep your hands out of my pocket.
Great fight to watch, its time the top dogs in this division fought each other so we can have a fighter who is unarguably the No.1 Lightweight and thus the World Lightweight Champion. Out of handful of fighters with valid claims to be the no.1 Lightweight ,the only fighter operating at lightweight who looks like the full package is Vasilly Lomachenko and his only issue appears to be his natural lack of size. He looked so much smaller when fighting against Teofiimo Lopez, better skill can carry you far but eventually if your opponent has enough size advantage its a bridge too far.
Hi Dan. I'm not sure if you score the fights yourself anymore, but it'd be nice to include a "Fight Freaks Unite scored the bout XXX-XXX" line in your articles. I was always interested to see your scorecard featured in your articles.
