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

[1hourRun]

The "Tart-Tomato" as you call him is undisputed, unified 140 lb champion of the world in less than 20 fights. He clearly beat your boyfriend Ramirez who you said would smoke him. Your credibility is gone out the window long ago.

But did you know that I called Teofimo Lopez to beat Vasily Lomachenko tho? I made numerous upset picks throughout the years on the boxingscene, my track record in predictions lends credence to my deep knowledge of the sweetscience. You cant win them all.

There are some things wrong with your post here. I'll correct them for you:

First, Teofimo did not school Loma. He was gifted with a unanimous win by the judges, as far as I'm concerned. Not saying that he didn't win, but I had it a draw and could see a scenario where Loma won.

The internet unanimously agreed when the verdict was read by the judges in Lomachenko vs. Lopez. If you could see a victory for Vasily Lomachenko, then there went any desire I have to debate the outcome with you, I could entertain a 'draw' but that is far as I'm willing to go.

I feel no other boxer has neutralized Vasily like the way Teofimo done, that is why I considered this a 'schooling'.

Second, this is the other point. Taylor does not stand to win the lightweight titles because he would be fighting above the lightweight limit. Teofimo could potentially capture Josh's titles, however. And that's why it's a ***** ass move.

Josh Taylor does not even care about winning Teofimo's 135 titles, apparently some of my humor went over your head.

It's a good option, if it were available. As it stands, it's extremely premature, especially when Taylor has his sights on a bigger challenge for his legacy, which is Crawford. And because no one is lining up to fight Crawford, and those that are will be outside of the TopRank umbrella, Taylor is Crawford's only real option. That's it. Teofimo has other options, and his best option is Lomachenko.

Josh Taylor has been dropping names from the lighter-weights, far more than welterweights. Recent quotes from the 'Tart-Tomato' suggest that he is looking to fight little Gervonta Davis, Teofimo Lopez ; and more recently even the weak link of the 147 pound division Yorenis Ugas.

Of course there's reason for a rematch. Teo gassed in the last few rounds, started getting touched, got busted up, and at the rate things were starting to go, was probably a couple rounds away from getting stopped. But that's why they don't see the point of a rematch

I see someone attempted to respond to my statement with a question that in all reality makes absolutely zero sense in the context of Lomachenko vs Teofimo Lopez. What does Lomachenko granting or not granting rematches to men he fought in the past ( men he thoroughly dominated and thrashed)have to do with the fact that you had a noteworthy fight where the champion and a high profile challenger engaged in a bout that most mature and real hard-core aficionados of the sport are demanding a redo?
That comes across ignorant in narrative and its also deflection from the core argument that a GOOD majority of boxing fans with the exception of biased Lopez supporters, want to see a rematch. I have no horse in this race per say because I put the sport FIRST before cheerleading a particular fighter. Most hard-core sincere fans respect that credo. Unfortunately it seems this new generation of " fans" practice a different mentality.

Loma has a lot more to lose in a rematch than Lopez, especially if he get sparked out. If Lopez loses he is young enough to recover and still have an amazing career

[Billevans]

All we can hope for is that the Vergil Ortiz attitude/ approach wins out.

Are you one of those casuals that believed ESPN pro-Lomachenko propaganda, did the 'undefeated' graphics of Vasily's record that ESPN published, fool you too?

maybe bro.....that's why I'm asking na sincere question, you said "avenging loses......." for this claim to hold , Loma must have avenged a loss, then we can come to the that conclusion.......the thing is, I don't remember Loma being in such a situation, hence my question, I know he lost against salido....I'm talking about avenging a loss

I do remember you called the Loma vs teo fight correctly back then

This is laughable, you saw teo a couple of rounds away from getting stopped, but you didn't see Loma about getting stopped in the 12th

Davis would smoke that bum. Let's stick to Lopez, someone that lame can be competitive with. Gervonta would straight up fuck up Taylor.

[Walexhris]

Not sure how Loma's fans or Team Lona can be upset at the path Teo is taking. How many rematches has Loma given after he won ?

Great question

[Cypocryphy]

Great question

Who has asked for them? That's an even better question.
