Comments Thread For: Lomachenko: I Am Not Happy Teofimo Lopez Lost Because I Understand What He's Feeling

[fourtheboys96]

Spoken like a real class act, good on him. On the other hand Kambosos is a real schmuk, praising his own skills and performance and talking himself up as being the top dog. All he did was barely defeat a hopelessly ill Lopez. I fully expect Kambosos to not last a single defense of the titles.

WTF are you saying? Kambosos was a gracious winner against an arrogant Lopez Team.

Always respected Loma, he fights the best even though he takes some losses and handle this w class

I did not like the way Lomachenko handled himself after his loss. He never really gave Lopez credit, declaring it at worst a draw, and that he "dominated" the middle rounds on. It bothered me because Lomachenko never came off that to me. Very bothersome as a fan.

But this was class. He did not kick Lopez while he was down. He related the 2 losses, which honestly was the first time I heard him accept the defeat and he did it to show respect to the man who himself had his first career "L". I appreciate that a ton as a fan. So, I will give Lomachenko a pass on the aftermath of the Lopez fight. Anyone can handle something poorly. No one is perfect. This was a high class man handling that question.

Agree, except I think he had a good case that the fight was a draw but he didn't dominate 6 rounds at the end of the day, you could have found 6 rounds for Loma, but you also could have found 8 rounds for Teo, fair score at the end of the day, def not a robbery

Go listen to a few interviews and hear the shmuk talk about his own “amazing skills” and what not. Lomachenko is watering at the mouth for a shot at this guy. As is everyone else.

People fail to understand here that Loma's arrogance is really just being European.

There is this song, a girl artist sings this question: "is he gay or is he European" because of the way this guys dresses.

Its a different culture type of demenear, Kambosos has it a little too. Being European, but living 25 years in US (im 35) i see what Americans see as Loma's arrogance, but he's just a confident European dude.

One thing is for sure, you will never see Loma verbally disrespect another fighter. Call them names or something like that. He is not Ryan or Teo.

You will also never see Loma say that he is going to beat the guy, he always says im going to try to put on my best performance.

I honestly wish more young American boxers were like him. It kinds of hurts to see so much disrespect for Lomachenko because people are not picking up on his subtle demeanor difference of being European.

Loma is a respectful dude. He's a little ****y, but he's not disrespectful.

Honestly, I had 6-6 and it was easy scoring for me for 6-6. And the later rounds Loma simply won with class. Teo's wins were just really good "stay the F away from me" boxing. Even round 12 (that Teo won) its obvious that Loma was engaging Teofimo in very risky ways. But that whole fight was Lomachenko's fault, injury or not. If you decide to fight, injury is not catalyst anymore.
