he ran outta gas in the end, his stamina isn't that good. don' think he can stop loma if it pass the 5th or 6th round. say whatever you want but in that fight it was lopez the one hurt
Can’t understand why Loma thinks beating Nakatani better than Lopez did means something. The lightweight division is stacked with more meaningful, much higher-profile challenges. Why not challenge Valdez, Tank or Haney? Loma seems to have lost confidence in himself.
Hard to say. Lopez absolutely won the first fight but I’m not sure if Loma figured him out or if Teo got tired. I’d say it’s a 60/40 fight for Teo but winnable for either man. One thing is for sure, the longer it gets put off the better the odds are for Lopez .
Rewatch the fight and listen to Lopez Sr every time Teofimo throws a punch lol. He was making it seem like Loma was getting destroyed when he just simply didn't throw anything. I actually had it a draw. Loma 2, 7-11 and Lopez 1, 3-6, 12 but that 2nd round was very close so I'm okay with a Lopez win.
Lopez threw 338 more punches but only landed 42 more over 12 rounds, 6 of which were low activity rounds for Loma. People saying he was afraid of getting clipped are wrong, his plan was to tire out Lopez and then break him down.
So, here we go with the “rematch” b u l l s h I t. On one hand we have a lot of Karen’s screaming how rematches keep holding up the movement of divisions and how we scream fo total unifications. Then in the same breath we cry when our chosen fighter that we adorn our rooms with posters doesn’t win and demand rematches. Which is it? You can’t have it both ways. P h u c k rematches. You lose you move on and the champion works towards unification. Once unified then revisit the damned rematch.
Boxing has some of the most conflicted contractictory fans in all of sports.
