Styles make fights. Loma gives Shakur problems

[Chollo Vista]

He's probably the only one fast enough with enough movement and angles to beat Shakur

Haney will beat Loma if he can hold on late, but Haney loses to Tank and Shakur

Not sure about Tank vs Shakur

[Roadblock]

Shakur is hurtful, he is the closet thing to a young Floyd we have had in many years, I donk think Loma could hold up with the precise power Shakur has, and he is still not near his prime as he is becoming the complete package fight by fight.

Yoshino said that Shakur doesn’t have a lot of power. He said that he’s really fast, that there’s a lot of speed on his punches. He said he didn’t really feel any power. (His words, not mine)

I really like Loma, and I think there's a good chance he dethrones Haney. But I don't see him beating Shakur. Gonna be much harder to get his usual angles because they're both southpaw, and Shakur looks like he's starting to grow into power (and an aggressive mean streak), on top of being the hardest fighter to hit in all of boxing.

[Charlie Zelenoff]

Shakur will retire Loma.

[Cypocryphy]

I agree. Provided that Loma can keep his athleticism up. At age 35, things are not the same. I hate saying it, but I'm seeing a lot of my favorite athletes not able to do what they used to do at age 35. I'm hoping Loma gets on some gear to help preserve his speed and athleticism.

I suppose we'll see when he fights Haney. I think he'll pull it off. Then we can have a good idea how he'll pair up with Shakur. But overall, I think he's got the style. And if Loma were 28 - 30 years old, I'd pick him to beat Shakur without question.

Either way, it is powerful enough that Loma would respect it, even though I still think Vasily is good enough to beat Devin, the latest version of Loma we got in the last few fights will get outperformed by the physically younger and larger fighter in Stevenson.

Even if his technical ability is subpar compared to his, it wouldn't make a drastic difference.

If Loma was younger and the same size

Yeah. I agree. The size and age difference is no joke. And like you said, even though I think Loma is the more skilled boxer, Shakur's skill level is not significant lower than Loma's. It's close enough that his youth and size would give him a very meaningful advantage. This is why I hope Loma starts using PEDs (like every other boxer these days) and reduces his age a bit.

[Silence]

Motivated, well-trained and healthy Loma beats everyone.

Tank and Shakur beats Haney.

Shakur beats Tank.

All of them beat Gaycia.
