This fight is supposed to happen before, but it's good to see that finally they are going to fight and will go for the IBF 135 lbs.
Who do you think will win this fight?
I have Loma winning in a unanimous decision here.
why do it have to be in IBF, there's WBO which the champ is also vacant. loma is getting old though, its a risky bet to root for him. 5 years ago would have been a better loma but now its like of a 50/50 chance.
he can last the 12 rounds that for sure but so is kambosos. loma can absorb kambosos' punch without prob. so this fight can play out like stealing rounds every time there just 10 seconds left.
I assumed it's not financially wise for Loma to fight for the WBO belt, who is the WBO number 2? Denys Berinchyk? We haven't heard of this fighter before. But with the IBF, it's Kambosos their number 2 and then Loma number 3.
Besides it's all money for Top Rank, and so it make sense for them to go with this fight and I think IBF is fine with it obviously. Perhaps if Loma will win this fight, he can go after the WBO belt. But for now, financial and business wise, it make sense for this two to go for the IBF belt first.
