Vasiliy Lomachenko v Jamaine Ortiz

[J_Undisputed]

Before his return from "War", I said wouldn't be surprised if we never saw Loma in the ring again.. I guess I owe him an apology... I guess....

Yes, the size difference was apparent, but that's the game now. Loma was still going straight in without his footwork and eating leather. The footwork, Jab, step around, Slip under isn't going to work against these boiled down welterweight kids who have essentially been instructed to punch with him and take the body whenever he gets inside. I get it that its his first fight back, but I don't see this version of him putting in the work necessary to take what Haney has. (he needs to study tape, get great sparring, a crystal ball and a tarot deck.) He already naturally comes up short on size, reach, power and a way in.

The only thing in Lomas favor is that Haney sometimes has a habit of going straight back, but if he learns to step around and hook with Loma. He'll put this Loma on his butt at least a few times. May have to change this name after this fight from the dream to the "Mosquiter eater".

He's definitely making dig out of an early hole a concerning habit. In fairness his pacing of self and knowing his gas tank is impressive...but he looks more linear now trying to stick with the aggression. Glad the fight is coming off but that approach will not benefit him with Haney who is quickly finding his own path and expanding his toolbox. Haney isn't carrying bricks, but I now have no questions about if he will or if he will not step up the volume off that jab. Kid is growing up. Oh and he's massive.
