    Wow - just knocked his opponent out in the first 30 odd seconds of the first round.

    Looks like he's made adjustments - ferocious.

    Can't take anything from that fight, it was a staged comeback fight against a fighter that was always just going to be knocked out....

    Did his hands look fast, yes
    Was he challenged, no
    Will he fight Brook, don't think he has the balls

    Disgusting behaviour by the Lord Mayor of London.

    Wonder how much Lo Greco got paid for his 40 seconds of fame?

    Amusing.

    Why do they always get some cannon fodder on their return

    To be fair to the lad he's a former WBC world champion and has won 28 out of 32 pro fights.

    I've got a record of none for none personally.

    Lo Greco is an absolute ham and C level fighter if that. It'll be interesting to see how Khan does when he fights someone remotely decent.

    Can’t see it myself. Linares is quality but Luke Campbell gave him serious problems. Loma is just a freak of nature. Reckon he walks through him

    Phil Lo Greco

    32 Fights 28 Wins 15 KOs 4 Defeats

    Not really 'HAM' as you put it. He's still ranked in the top 10% of the Super Welter Weight Division.

    If top 10% is 'C' grade - what about the other 1,700 + ranked below him?

    I assume you're being purposefully argumentative. Phil Lo Greco, in professional boxing terms compared to the top tier fighters, is absolute ****e.

    There are few truly world class, A+ boxers like Lomachenko, Uysk etc. Then a good crop of A-/B+ fighters after that, then basically young starters or fodder. Christ, many boxing aficionados I've seen or spoken to reckon there's about 5 good heavyweights and the rest are ****e. The A-level talent really is that thin.

    It's like comparing a Real Madrid player to a Scunthorpe player, both would obviously be incredibly better than most footballers and the general public but one is obviously a lot better than the other.

    You seem to love taking the contrary point, regardless of what it is, when it comes to boxing. Therefore you're either A) On a massive wind-up which is pathetically sad or B) One of those blokes who watches a boxing match once a year and reckons he's Freddie Roach.

    All four losses were in his last seven fights, he's finished.
