Comments Thread For: Teofimo Lopez Sees 'No Point' in Having Rematch With Lomachenko

[Sid-Knee]

Lopez destroyed the fraud p4p. He decides what he wants now. If a rematch happens, Lomachenko better not run like a bytch for 6 rounds

At no point in the fight was Loma "Destroyed". You have to ask yourself why you want to imagine this delusion as reality?

It was a draw. Loma had his titles stolen. And now Lopez wants to run. Like Ruiz did. Like Rahman did. Like Salido did etc etc...

Is it a duck? Why, of course!
Am I cool with it? Why not? After what happened with Rigo, I am happy to see Lomachenko get the B-side treatment

Rigo was offered the fight for a Mill at Featherweight. He turned it down. Nothing Loma could do. But fans still wanted it when he moved up to Super Feather and claimed he was ducking. At no point was he. He was happy to fight him at any time. They did, Loma won. The end.

You seem to think it went another way? How did it go another way like you're insinuating?

He's turned into a diva, he won the first fight convincingly in my opinion but perhaps he knows it was just a 1 off bad night at the office got loma. Its the easiest big name fight to make at the moment. If he fights Davis, haney or Taylor after his mandatory fair enough. If not its a duck

Lomachenko is a total re-tracer/copy cat artist. First he went after all the guys Mikey Garcia already beat (and salido kicked his ass), now he’s going after Lopez’ fallen foes. If he wants to corner Lopez into a rematch he should take on Haney and try to get his hands on the WBC belt, which is the only thing that might keep Lopez at 135

lopez schooled the fake arse injury circusclownchenko until he owns that defeat move on let bumchenko fight for belts you vacate

The fight was close, Ward on show had it a draw for a reason, let's not act like it was one sided.

Any boxing fans would love a rematch btw chose 2, they might the 2 most skilled fighters in boxing.

Fck Haney and Tank until they beat someone with a pulse

Good thing Ward was not the judges. Ward is my guy but he scored the fight horribly. He had Loma winning going into the 12thround wtf.

Hahaha. This the most obvious duck language I’ve ever seen. His dad was at Loma’s last fight, he himself started warming up to it cause he realized it made financial sense and was a fight the fans wanted to see…. Look Teo very clearly won the first fight but that has become more and more to look like Loma lost that fight more than Teo won it. Loma came on in the second half. Figured the kid out, hell even started man handling the larger Lopez…. Too little too late. Then Teo saw Loma absolutely destroy a fighter that gave him fits. He don’t want the smoke. Honestly I don’t know who wins a rematch if they fought, but Teo doesn’t wanna risk that the run he’s on right now. He loses to Taylor he will still have a boat load of big fights and nothing is lost. He gets smashed by Loma after running his mouth like this and he starts to look real Flukey. I love what both fighters bring to the table. Shame they’re not coming to the table. Bad for the sport

"Loma came on in the second half. Figured the kid out".....so now we're gonna act like round 12 wasn't part of the second half..... laughable

Loma was seriously battered in the 12th.....not to accept this is delusion

I had to agree with the brilliant plan that Teofimo shared with Timothy Bradley on this weeks Toprank telecast, a catchweight with the 'Tart-Tomato' Josh Taylor at 137½ for the jr. welterweight undisputed championship sounds more promising for Lopez ; a fair point in using Gervonta Davis vs. Leo Santa Cruz fighting at 130 as a good example

-- Although Josh Taylor wont be able to claim the lightweight championship as 137½ is beyond the lightweight limit. However, I'm sure WBC president Mauricio Sauliman would create a 137½ Franchise title for the special occasion and maybe even a whole new division like Bridgerweight.

But if Teofimo Lopez leaves lightweight for good, Vasily Lomachenko can have his pick of Teofimo's vacant belts against a ranked bum and then try to beat Devin Haney in a unification on DAZN. It would be a fresh start for Lomachenka, I know that avenging losses has not worked out well for Vasily, so in essence Teo is actually doing Vasily a great service.

Avenging loses has not worked out well for Vasily......how so?

Teo ran his mouth so much in the build up to the fight that i wanted Loma to knock him out. that was his chance instead he didn't even want to engage in 7 rounds. That was puzzling to watch. What are you talking about that he figured him out ? he just started to throw punches as you should in a undisputed fight. In any case Loma nearly got himself knocked out in the 12th that was the closest he came to being stopped on his feet. He doesnt deserve a rematch. So what if he beat nakantani. styles makes fight. He has to wait his turn. Dont get me wrong he is a great fighter but TEO fighting Davis makes him more money. Teo fighting Haney removes doubt about undisputed and Teo fighting LOMA only benefits Loma and his adoring fans. If it was the other way round and Teo was a deer in headlights for 7 rounds, no one will be calling for a rematch.

No better way to put it
