Comments Thread For: Arum Believes Lomachenko Would Leave Ukraine to Compete for Lightweight Championship

[Cypocryphy]

You're making excuses for his loss, but it happened, he lost to a 23-Year old kid! I don't care what kind of "draw" he is, he's just can't be the "Gold Standard!" Joshua is a draw too, but he lost to Ruiz, and Usyk! He can't be the "Gold Standard" ar Heavyweight! Canelo beat Kovalev, but lost to Bivol. He can't be the "Gold Standard" at 175!

The judges robbed Loma, so I don't know what your point is. Watched that fight enough to know those score cards were all wrong. Same with the Salido fight. It's not that you lost in boxing; it's HOW YOU LOST.

If you can't understand that, then you're a dumbass fanboy. And that's okay. Keep being you.

You can believe what you want, Loma has 2 losses on his record! The 1st loss was to an old, fat version of Salido! The 2nd is to a young, wet behind the ear, immature kid! You can't have those losses, and be considered the "Gold Standard!" Teofimo Lopez nearly died making weight to fight Kambosos! No one is giving him a pass because he lost to Kambosos! Here you have the promoter of an "Undisputed" Lightweight Champion event, and he's saying that both fighters are beneath Lomachenko, even after Kambosos beat the fighter that beat Lomachenko! I just find that VERY disrespectful!

Okay. Let's break down what you wrote like a rational, sane human being.

The 1st loss was to an old, fat version of Salido!

Salido was not fat by any means. Coming in at a little more than 128 pounds does not make you fat. He rehydrated a ton, that for sure, but he was anything but fat. He was a two-time world champion. This is not some bum but a guy that was world champion. TWICE. And he arguably beat him, losing a split decision. It was due to bad refereeing and Texas judging that he lost. Lawrence Cole has come out and said that he "totally ****ed up" that fight. He has admitted it!

The 2nd is to a young, wet behind the ear, immature kid! You can't have those losses, and be considered the "Gold Standard!" Teofimo Lopez nearly died making weight to fight Kambosos!

If you believe that bull**** about making weight then I have a bridge in San Francisco to sell you.

Now you tell me: Does this look like a man who's esophagus exploded?

No one is giving him a pass because he lost to Kambosos! Here you have the promoter of an "Undisputed" Lightweight Champion event, and he's saying that both fighters are beneath Lomachenko, even after Kambosos beat the fighter that beat Lomachenko! I just find that VERY disrespectful!

It was obvious that he lost that fight. It's almost impossible to make a case for that fight being a draw, let alone a win for him. In fact, the score cards were ridiculously favorable to Lopez!!! Lopez had a 9/8 first round! GTFOH! As if Kambosos didn't do anything that round other than knockdown Lopez. As if Kambosos was up agains the ropes, getting a beatdown. He was firing back and landing.

Loma literally had one arm in that fight. Want to know how you could tell? He threw one lead uppercut the whole fight. ONE!!! When he usually lands like 20 in a fight. He was very limited and was trying to rely on his left almost exclusively. But Lopez is too good to fight that way, so he had to go for broke around the 6th or 7th round and turn it up. He out landed with power punches from round 6 all the way to round 12. He did. And you're telling me that those scorecards reflect reality? You're out of your damn mind.

Like I said, it doesn't matter if you lose; what matters is how you lose.

Salido was nearly 34 years old, and missed weight by more than 2lbs., and his gut tells me he was FAT! Yes, Salido was a FORMER Champion, who lost to Cristobal Cruz in 2008, Gamboa in 2010, and Mikey Garcia in 2013, before beating Lomachenko in 2014! That doesn't make Lomachenko a bad fighter, but he can't be the "Gold Standard" and lose to Salido!

Now on to Teofimo Lopez! This really pisses me off! Pacquiao says his shoulder was hurt, but that's OK! Lomachenko says his shoulder was hurt, but that's OK! Lopez says he had esophageal and airway problems, he's lying! If Lopez was lying, Pacquiao and Lomachenko were lying too! Bob Arum had to be lying too, but that should not surprise anyone!

I hate to have to speak about Lomachenko in this fashion, but I must! He's a very good fighter, but he never was on Whitaker & Mayweather's level (in my opinion), like they hyped him up to be, and after losing to Lopez, he's not even on Pacquiao's level! He's right there with Canelo and Joshua! Should be no shame in that, but somehow it is?

You're in denial bro. But that's okay.

Devin Haney is bum.

You are arguing with a deluded fanboy it's just not worth it, let them live in dreamland tbh.

[jackkeane6]

If Loma was gonna leave to fight for a title he would be across the ring from Kambosos and not Haney. Loma has proved his worth as a champion and is fighting for something bigger than belts.

Hahahaha what a Neo **** ****hole?

[Floyd is TBE]

Loma already ducked Haney once, he's gonna do it again.

[Goldie]

Which never gave a rematch because it was candid of Loma not to press.
Salido preferred to do UBER instead of the rematch! You won't even find that on a Coen brother's flick, LOL!
You know it, I know it.

And he is not black enough....

Show one example in boxing history of a 16-2 black fighter being hyped as the best of his division and still on corporate controlled p4p lists.

For all the whining about how black fans are unfair to loma there’s conveniently no mention of how the white controlled powers at be are biased in his favor.
