Loma don't want the smoke. Funny how the war didn't stop him from fighting Haney, but now he's worried about Ukraine when it's Stevenson's turn. Really pathetic display from Loma. He shouldn't get a free pass for his blatant ducking. I guess Loma will only fight if Bob gives him more unearned title shots.
TR is going to get Loma a win over Kambosos and het a belt before he fights Shakur. Makes business sense.
looking at Loma v jamaine and Loma v Haney, those were very tough fights. Shakur is better than both so most will not hive him much of a chance to win.
Loma knows that he couldn't beat shakur. He was actually offered a lot of $$$ and still turned it down, so that high risk, low reward excuse is moot. Loma is scared.
Same vein other arm, not enough reward the more they know they going to lose the more the cost is inflated.

I think a lot of guys are not rushing into Shakur, he is in a similar place as boots, nobody willing to step in so they get marketed out of fights. very high risk and no big reward in terms of the odds favor the risk will happen and they lose, they both need to get a big fight with a top guy.
Loma knows that a loss to Shakur ends his run at espn. 3 losses to the youngsters ends him at the top.
Loma is gonna fight a bum next, then Inoue at 130 next summer
Because Shakur has better skills than Haney and none of the belts.
Imagine beating Shakur and taking his 0 and you have no belts to show for it. Nah. Lomachenko isn't some gatekeeper.
Likely we get Lomachenko-Kambosis, maybe for one of the vacant titles. Maybe the winner and Stevenson end up meeting for some or all of the belts later.
Fight makes zero sense right now.
Loma vs Shakur would be for the wbc.
Kambosos vs Loma wouldn't be for anything

High risk low reward.
Coming off a fight he felt hard done by, with majority thinking he won.
Hard to blame him. If he'd got the decision he may have taken it.
It stopped him taking an easy fight for undisputed against Kambosos so it's believable if you follow what is going on there not just the mainstream media. Ukraine getting f up even with the billions Biden sends every week
