I'm not posting on NSB until Loma fights good opponent

Do you really believe Loma doesn't want to fight Rigo? Of course he wants to fight him. But both fighters are going to want big money and where's the money supposed to come from? And I'm not even a Loma fan. I'm just keeping it real with you because we've seen this sort of situation in the past. Arum needs to try and tap into Haymons stable of fighters. Definitely not. The guy asked for a title shot as soon as possible, that was the part of his contract with Top Rank, he faced Salido in his second fight, so I'm not blaming him for "ducking" or some other ****. I don't like calling fighters ducks, because they don't have upper hand in making decisions and we don't know 90% of the stuff behind the scenes. I just don't like this whole situation when a talented fighter can't face a better challenge and nobody can do anything about it. We all know there's a lot of options would be better than Marriaga for ESPN debut. Crawford has much better fight on the horizon. The stuff that Top Rank is doing giving Lomachenko haters more opportunities for disrespect. You won't see the end of these threads about Lomachenko ducking Rigo now and you can't say it's not deserved. You have to make some moves to show people you're not scared and Top Rank was hesitating in this situation and made his own fighter look bad in the result. Salido wasn't reliable option from the start, they were supposed to have plan B in case Salido fight isn't happening Personally I don't think you post enough. You always have a different insight on certain things and have made me look at things differently Man that's because 80% of NSB is dumb as ****. I don't want to spend my energy on bashing fanbases of fighters I don't like or some other stupid **** that NSB posters doing on daily basis here, I see no point in it. I don't dislike a lot of fighters and I don't pick sides - Canelo/GGG, Floyd/Pac, **** that. Arguing in heated debates about the outcome of upcoming fights, that's not for me too, I'll see the result when it happens. If I have something to say, I don't bite the tongue.

Like I said in the other thread, I will join in the criticism of Team Lomachenko if he fights another showcase level opponent after Marriaga. I promise I will. But here's what's going on. The reality whether we like it or not. Bob is just beginning this new platform -- this new ESPN/Top Rank venture. THIS fight in particular, is purely a showcase. He wants to introduce Lomachenko to all the non-hardcore fight fans who wouldn't get premium cable channels just for boxing, but will watch if it's on ESPN. He wants it to be a showcase. Thus Marriaga. Davis/Garcia/Linares/Rigo are all big fights. Mikey already has a fight lined up (and doesn't Davis too?). If it were to be Linares or Rigondeaux...I don't see how it's possible to get a contract done and having a fight of that magnitude take place just some THIRTY-FIVE days from now. It's not possible. Like I said, I will reserve judgment, because I get this from a business standpoint. It's natural to want to showcase Lomachenko here to a largely new audience. We'll see what happens next. If dude fights another Marriaga/Sosa level guy then I'll be the first motherf**ker on here questioning Team Lomachenko. I swear. The problem is that Mikey, Linares, Davis, Rigo, Coralles aren't with Top Rank and are promoted by GB, TMT, Roc Nation, and Mikey with Showtime. There's is no way Arum would put Loma in with those fighters. He wouldn't want to pay those fighters without them giving Arum options on future fights in the case they beat Loma. The question is would Arum allow Loma to face those guys if their promoter was putting up the money and asked for options on Loma? Would Arum allow Loma to fight Mikey on Showtime with him co promoting with Shaffer or DiBella? Loma's gonna be fighting in house fights or against fighters who are promoted by small companies who will give Arum options on their fighter.

This has some validity I wouldn't disagree, but I'd argue there are times when the business side makes more sense & times when it makes less sense & this to me is a time when the business angle makes less sense. Loma COULD be a star in this game. But he needs the fights vs the tip top elite guys + names & he needs to be more active. I don't believe Top Rank has maximized Loma's abilities vs tip top + name guys nor his readiness to fight. Thats a problem when you are trying to get a almost 30 year old Ukrainian in the US in the sport of boxing known to the mainstream sports fan. I don't disagree with that but I don't know where the money for a Rigo fight is going to come from. He needs Haymons stable of fighters where he can come in as a B side fighter. Go to LA and fight the Mares', Santa Cruz' or maybe a Frampton or Shelby fight across the pond.

If fighter has to spend his prime years on fighting Marriaga or having 2 fights in a year against Piriyapinyo caliber of opponents, then **** the way how that business side works, it doesn't suit me in any way, shape or form. It suits me only when I see competitive fights. Tell me how the **** I'm ignoring it? How the fact that fighters with a lot of potential like Rigondeaux or Lomachenko wasting their years can suit me? Do you really believe Loma doesn't want to fight Rigo? Of course he wants to fight him. But both fighters are going to want big money and where's the money supposed to come from? And I'm not even a Loma fan. I'm just keeping it real with you because we've seen this sort of situation in the past. Arum needs to try and tap into Haymons stable of fighters.

See what I mean? Floyd didn't hand pick each of his opponents because he did IYO in those 4 cases. Calling it race bait to avoid it is the same tactics I pointed out before. I am asking you directly why the difference in opinion. Look at the difference in ages when they started as pros. So age is your excuse now? Tyson was a world champion at 20 years old, fought everyone, and didn't have anywhere near the amateur career that Floyd had. Floyd had over 100 amateur fights, yet look at who he fought for his 9 pro fight...a guy who was 1-13-1. No doubt you'd be all over Loma if his 9th opponent had that kind of record. Fast forward to Floyd's 24th fight and his opponent had a 22-16-4 record. You going to allow Loma to get away with that for his 24th fight? Fast forward to Floyd's 37th fight and his opponent was 43-9-6...will Loma get the same pass from the race-baiters like you? Why are you even bringing Floyd into this thread anyway? You manage to puke his name out of your mouth in every thread. Is your life that desperate and empty that you've dedicated it to defending Mayweather even when no one is talking about him? I presented some facts as to why Loma isn't fighting any of the names mentioned by the OP. Floyd did indeed hand-pick his opponents. Haymon had Thurman, Garcia, Porter and Khan under his control could easily have made those fights for Floyd. Hell, Floyd himself asked fans to vote for his next opponent...Maidana or Khan, and they voted in favor of Khan, but Floyd CHOSE Maidana instead. The guy Khan already beat. GTFO with your race-bait, Floyd c*cksucking routine.

and he never returned...

No one was ducking Floyd, and I mean no one. Floyd was allowed to hand pick each of his opponents, and instead of fighting Thurman, Garcia, Porter, Brook, Khan, he chose Ortiz, Guerrero, Maidana and Berto. Get off the d!ck with that race-bait nonsense Dunce. Loma is a different beast from Floyd. Look at the names on Loma's resume thus far as opposed to Floyd in their first nine fights. See what I mean? Floyd didn't hand pick each of his opponents because he did IYO in those 4 cases. Calling it race bait to avoid it is the same tactics I pointed out before.

Shut the **** up. Nobody approves Marriaga. He was beaten by the guy Lomachenko dominated. I'd even approve someone like Sosa who was top 10 at that weight class. But not Marriaga. If I want to see Lomachenko's resume to get better, there's nothing wrong with that You're taking it a bit too seriously

This is the only thread where I'm posting for some time because I have to respond to some retarded messages that's adressed to me. After that, you won't see me here, don't worry...Until next Lomachenko's fight because I'm sure his next opponent gonna be worthy aww oh noes dont leave us! farewell comrade :(

I think a guy with 9 fights should get a little less criticism. It's been quite obvious that his competition has been excellent for someone with that number of fights. No one knows rigondeaux's reason for not making the fight on his end, I also think salido not taking 720k is pretty stupid.

go and put your tampon in and log out you mentalist. I thought you're going to stop posting ?:lol1: This is the only thread where I'm posting for some time because I have to respond to some retarded messages that's adressed to me.

This ^^^^ Except Davis, Floyd has said he won't rush him towards Loma yet rest all are damn good fights.. Can't green k you Mike, so sent red instead..

Fake because I don't like Kovalev? You're retard mlac saying that everybody who doesn't like Ward (for example) aren't americans now, according to his retarded logic Yes because i definitely said that, stop making things up you emotional weirdo ' im not going to post anymore until loma fights someone i approve of' you are a freak :lol1:

Funny but when stuff like this was happening to Floyd, you blamed him. Now you blame everyone but Loma. Remember the other day when I was telling you how you do the exact same thing the alt right, white power racists do. This is a perfect example of what I mean. Come on dude. You find no fault with Loma or his team? No one was ducking Floyd, and I mean no one. Floyd was allowed to hand pick each of his opponents, and instead of fighting Thurman, Garcia, Porter, Brook, Khan, he chose Ortiz, Guerrero, Maidana and Berto.

It's not as though anyone is in a big hurry to fight him either. Floyd won't let Davis anywhere near him even though Davis is a title holder with twice as many pro fights. Rigo has been talking catch weights for two years and prices himself out of fights, Garcia just jumped to 140 to fight Broner, Linares is at 135, Corrales and Salido turned down an offer to fight Loma, and Berchelt has a mandatory versus Miura next month. It's not easy to make fights when opponents don't want to fight. They can say they want to fight, but if they price themselves out or move out of the weight class it's difficult to take them seriously.

Remember the other day when I was telling you how you do the exact same thing the alt right, white power racists do. This is a perfect example of what I mean. Come on dude. You find no fault with Loma or his team?

He's not fighting those guys within the next 12 months. This isn't really a problem of time. Did Rigo turn down the fight? Was he even legit offered the fight? That I don't know. But Arum and Rigo aren't really on working terms ever since he knocked off his future potential cash cow.
