thats hard to say. at one point he admits that trying MMA against Conor would be a death wish but then he says sparring him in boxing would have any sense for Conor. I'm pretty sure Conor would call him if he was to fight southpaw flyweight but for Floyd?
Ellie is using Mcgregors name all the time for clicks. Its clickbate..because all his videos with no mention of McGregor gets fuck all clicks. Because boxing if fucking dying
loool you got it wrong.. there is not a single boxer typing McGregor in his search bar.. its the UFC fans that make the views :P we are here for LOMA!!
Lomachenko is such an humble guy and never has a bad word to say on other fighters skill's. Thats the sign of a true champ right there...Let's his skills do the talking.
Nothing but respect for vasyl. Since i first started seeing his performances and interviews, the dude is a beast and class act. His honesty and humility is admirable. Like i already said, nothin but respect for the athlete, and everything I've seen of the man outside of competition as well.
Keep working on your English and you will take boxing to a whole new level and take over the American boxing sene. Such a fan keep doing what your doing!!!
Glad that Vasya learned basic english already and looks much assure in iterwievs now. He is the hope and the proud of today's boxing. Very entertaining and interesting fighter. Much luck and heath to him. Cheers from Ukraine
And what a boxing you are. A true master mind of his craft. I truly wish Conor would take you up on your offer to do some sparring. An amazing offer to gain knowledge and pick his brain on strategy for the up and coming fight. Martial bow and respect.
On thing i dislike about ellie. Ellie should not say what he thinks of other fighters. His job as a boxing journalist should be to ask the questions not his oppinions
i can see a lil similarity fighting style, conor and him...changing angles, uppercuts and combos.... if wut im seeing and thinking is true then floyd better watch out or even the boxing world..
my god, lomachenko vs garbrandt or dominick cruz or mighty mouse would be sick. out of all boxers i can see loma doing the best, and shawn porter. i saw dillashaw at the gym was he sparring loma????
Lomachenko vs Garbrandt would be cool. But it's the same thing as Mayweather for McGregor. Only one result. And I think Lomachenko would devastate Garbrandt a lot more than Floyd will to Conor.
naw i meant in an MMA fight, like loma said, he knows judo, and wrestling and whatever else he said. maybe not as much but he could have an nice head start if he worked on it more, and also would have a huge boxing edge from the start on everyone. and he could mix those angles up with take downs nicely. garbrandt usually stands but he knows he would have to take loma down instantly or throw some kicks at him. haha
and by far. thats what makes floyd vs conor more interesting though. floyds smaller and its the theme of power vs defense. like all of floyds fights. but if conor were to fight canelo or GGG or any other top power puncher aggressor... he wouldnt last 2 rounds considering conors style and cause of lack of pro experience there would be a petition to stop conor from getting killed
Ahhhhhh good points my friend. And I agree, I think Loma would have the best chance in mma out of all boxers, has trained in multiple disciplines and is a real athlete. I wonder if he'd fight at 125 or 135 if he were to transition.
Conor is the best in the UFC? lol. No... he's just most popular at the moment. The real best in MMA don't have mainstream popularity and these guys have probably never heard of them.
@xristo702 - Conor got a title shot because he was ranked #3 at featherweight, and the #1 and #2 contenders (Frankie Edgar and Chad Mendes) had already lost to Jose Aldo. Keep in mind that when when Jose Aldo pulled out of their first scheduled fight, #1 ranked Chad Mendes was brought in as a replace him, and Conor knocked him out, then went on to knock out Jose Aldo. He got a fight at 155 because he was 145 pound champion, It was a super fight. I don't see any problem with Conor's pathway to the title. My only objection is that Khabib Nurmagomedov should have got a title shot first.
@MiskandarS - There are guys who went undefeated for 10+ years and had no popularity because they never talked any trash. Only the purists can name them.
ScorpionXII well can you name some of them, cuz I would really like to watch a good MMA fight. Everytime a try to watch it bores me to death because the fighters I watched had no defensive skills. MMA looks good too, but I don't know the good fighters..
Boxing is not easy but MMA is more diffficult. Is obvious, you need to train more than one art and be prepared for to many possible styles. Vasyl will kill Connor in boxing but Connor will kill Vasyl in MMA. Also, in a real figth Connor have more tools to figth Vasyl and he knows it.
Esnews keep it up bro . Theses Conor fans are deluded as fuck lmao Lomachenko is actually a classic act Conor on the other hand rents a Lamborghini lmao FLOYD MONEY MAYWAETHER!!!!
What everyone fails to realize ( to me it seems, and to Elie ) is Conor went straight to the front of the line. There's fighters that never got a fight with Floyd (Like Keith Thurman) either because he was cherry picking or some other nonsense. Either way Conor cut right through the bs and got a massive payday. Regardless of who wins, it's pointless to really argue or laugh at the guy, he's secured his lifetime 10 fold in a matter of 3 years haha.
if we make this sparring it's deffinately good for him. yeah I'm sure he'd be prepared because Floyd is southpaw flyweight right? wtf is this dude talking about?
Lomechenko would fuck up Connor in a real fight, infact if Mayweather was at least purple belt in jujitsu, hell even 4th degree blue belt he'd mess up McGregor in mma. Most boxers become champions in no holds barred fighting when they supplement their striking skills with jujitsu or wrestling. I.e. Diaz bros. Even McGregor himself started as a boxer. I also started as a boxer knocked out a lot of fuckers in the street, just would be scared when the big guys tried to grab me, but now that I'm also a purple belt in Gracie jujitsu, ill fuck up those big fuckers too
at least he is one boxer that knows his limitations. It gets on my nerves so bad when boxers act like they could compete against someone like McGregor in an MMA fight because they just can't like not even close. the same way he can't compete with them and their sport it is just as one-sided the other way around. to tell the truth it would actually be even more one-sided because there is no way that most of these boxers in his weight class would make it out of the first round. Like not even a small chance
how is it funny if he is going to make more money than any other boxers in a sport that is not his he has every right to say he runs boxing for the simple fact that he can come over and get a bigger payday produce more pay-per-view buys the greatest boxer in the sport will only fight him and no one else I don't get how it's funny as weird as it is it's true and he is just speaking the truth and boxing fans don't want to hear it or admit it
