[Boxing]: Lomachenko vs Nakatani June 26

Lomachenko vs Nakatani June 26

Ok, so Lomachenko will be making his comeback fight after his devastating lost against Teofimo Lopez. And he ain't taking easy opponent as he will be fighting Masayoshi Nakatani. For those who are not familiar with Nakatani, he also fought Lopez for 12 full and hard rounds.

Nakatani is tall, this is a dangerous fight for Loma. But I think this will go to distance as well with Loma winning by UD.

Thanks for posting Nakatani's toughest fight video link we have now an idea who Loma is going to deal with in the ring, Teofimo Lopez is a huge resume for Nakatani, the guy can fight toe to toe and not afraid to exchange blows even to a big puncher like Lopez, this is going to be a very interesting fight, after Loma's loss to Lopez he needs to get back in contention and he is up to a very dangerous fight.

Yes, I remember his name, he has given Lopez the biggest and toughest fight and even Bradley says that Nakatani exposed Lopez that night. Even his father acknowledge that Nakatani was the most difficult fight Teofimo faces in his career.

And then Nakatani come back and fought another highly touted fighter, in Felix Verdejo, Nakatani was dropped in the first round, behind the judges scorecard and then knock Felix Verdejo cold in round 9th. So this Japanese is as tough as nail as you can find. So I agree that this is a dangerous comeback fight for Loma.

This is indeed a dangerous fight for Loma, I watch one of his training clips and he's also training hard either preparing himself for the fight but it hard to choose who'll be the winning of the upcoming fight since they have both fights with Teofimo Lopez and lost to him.
Having said that, I think this fight is Loma's own preparation for the Teofimo rematch.

Yes, and this is what I'm thinking why Loma take this dangerous fight,

[1] given the fact that Nakatami give Lopez one hell of a fight and Lopez wasn't able to finished Nakatami, I'd say that Loma will try to finished Nakatami much earlier that Lopez did and say that he beat Nakatami more than Lopez can do.

[2] If he beat Nakatami that way, his name will be in the discussions for the best 135 lbs and would chase or get back his belt again.

I believe that with the loss that Lomachenko had last October, he is in it to regain his reputation and his spirit in the game. The return has been expected by a lot of people and they are probably going to enjoy that fight as well. It can be a turning point towards his career if this doesn't come in his favor.

The contender, Nakatani, on the other hand, has been well praised and attention during his debut so I think there is potential here.

I think Nakatani would be rising on top of this one.

Loma has always been the winner, he had a injury during the Lopez fight (no excuse), but I think if he is 100% that time it could be a different outcome. But since that lost, for sure he has regain his confidence already and has his shoulder operated. So this is a must-win fight.

I think Nakatani would be rising on top of this one.

Nakatani is a decent fighter, but I think he will almost be a that gate keeper. Similar to what Josesito Lopez during his career.

Here are the quick boxing records for these boxers.
Masayoshi Nakatani got really the huge advantage here, height and reach, and even total bouts advantage.

For sure, the odds will be favor on Masayoshi Nakatani here because of the advantages. This will be an exciting fight too, Vasyl Lomachenko got also beautiful records.

[FinneysTrueVision]

This will be an interesting fight due to the size difference. Lomachenko has to look better than Lopez did against Nakatani in order to set up a rematch. If Lomachenko starts off too slow like he did against Lopez then he could end up digging himself into a hole that will be difficult to get out of. Nakatani has shown a great chin so this will probably end in a decision.

I just watched the video OP has posted and it was a really hard fight between the 2 of them.

Just looking the boxing records of these 2 boxers, Masayoshi has a height and reach advantage and he might use this to his advantage to a smaller Loma. Now for Loma, this is the time for him to regain his reputation after his lost against Lopez. Still 2 months from now but I will wait for this.

[Fundamentals Of]

Nakatani is a new name to me but it looks like he has what it takes to give Loma a good fight. He's got knock out power. He is taller than Loma. Furthermore, he has 14 centimeters reach advantage. He just needs to keep Loma at a very comfortable distance with jabs and straights and avoid Loma to get inside. Of course his best move is to knock out Loma but if he cannot manage to do it he has to maintain a good endurance keeping a good distance and making points.

Lomachenko will have a hard since Nakatani has a reach and height advantage that is considerably high against Lomachenko's height and reach, not to mention that if we remove Lopez's defeat for both, Nakatani is undefeated, I would probably favor Nakatani on this one.

[crwth]

That's true. I don't know what he can do against a tall man but if he knows what to do with that then the fight could be in his favor. Maybe close-fight to prevent the reach advantage by Nakatani? I can't wait.

Nakatani is a decent fighter, but I think he will almost be a that gate keeper. Similar to what Josesito Lopez during his career.

He'll get there soon enough. More popularity?

[mu_enrico]

Damn, I think this is going to be an even match. Nakatani is not like Lopez when his actual weight is not lightweight, but get dehydrated and then rehydrated before the match. That's why Lopez's power is way above his weight class. Nakatani is not that powerful, but his reach can annoy Loma as it shown on Loma vs Campbell.

If Loma can have 100% fitness, then he will win this fight, perhaps by unanimous decision.

[Viscore]

Nice one for LOMA, he lost on his last fight, so I think it's time for him to bounce back with a big win.

Junto Nakatani is also undefeated, LOMA really like fighting with undefeated fighter, but honestly, I'm not familiar with his opponent, so hopefully, it's a quality boxer so we will see a great fight coming this June 26.

It's expected because he will be the favorite to win this fight.

Actually, Nakatani is not an undefeated fighter, he lost against Lopez, the same guy who beat LOMA.
here's his record https://boxrec.com/en/proboxer/573607 for your reference.

There are no available betting odds yet, but basing on their individual record, I think LOMA will come out as the favorite.

[ReiMomo]

I will be waiting for the odds and where would the sportsbook will I guess favor the match.
But honestly, I’ve been eyeing Nakatani since before I was able to watch one of his fights. And I think I am not alone with this. Almost everybody will be placing their bets for this guy. However, on the other hand, Lomachenko has been training really hard for this match. I was able to see one of his video where he trains with his crew. You can see his dedication right there like a lion who’s ready to regain his throne.

Besides, Lomachenko has been rated better than Nakatani but I think it still my guy who will get it. Good luck the you people! Let’s see what will happen here on 26th June!

[mirakal]

Lots of big fights are coming in June, what's the big deal with this month?

Anyway, if there's a voting on who will win, I'll definitely cast my vote for Loma. Just FYI guys, I voted for Loma to win in his last fight but he disappointed us, therefore I think he will come back strong here just to say that he is still here.

[TopTort777]

Fight in Vegan, interesting. It means there will be spectators. Fights like that, and specially in Vegan, does not happen behind closed door.
Hope they will handle all the covid19 security measures. They can get some hints and lessons from UFC. This weekend they had an event with 15k fans.

This will be an interesting fight due to the size difference. Lomachenko has to look better than Lopez did against Nakatani in order to set up a rematch. If Lomachenko starts off too slow like he did against Lopez then he could end up digging himself into a hole that will be difficult to get out of. Nakatani has shown a great chin so this will probably end in a decision.

This is a good and interesting fight let's hope that there is no delay or any reason to postpone this kind of fight since this will be their only way to fight for another championship bout again in the ring. The Japanese fighter cannot be taken lightly and Loma should take his opponent seriously this time, old champion shouldn't loss in the ring in 2 straight loss or they will be forgotten and cannot be given another chance to have a good fight such as this one.
