He's got to win these big fights a lot better by tko or knockout. I think he needs a new coach or something, someone that can teach him how to do his style better or something. The whole times table training he does just ain't working out for him. I saw greatness from Loma in rounds 10-11, but he just took the speed off the gas pedal, and lost the twelfth, which I still had as a swing round. Maybe Loma is just too old.
If Loma wants to be a superstar

I'm just saying if Loma wants to win these big fights; he's got to do way more then what he is showing. At this point; I don't even think he's great. He looks like just another one of the guys if that make sense. But I will give him credit for fighting at 135, which is like 2 divisions above his natural weight class. And he's like 35, so that is pretty impressive right then and there.Comment

What is this "If Loma wants to be a Superstar" nonsense , Loma has been a superstar his entire career and according to many who witnessed last nights fight he deserved to win against a guy that's close to 15 years younger . Loma is the ultimate superstar .Comment

Loma was still way faster especially on his feet than I expected. He was gliding as per usual for a lot of the fight. Haney is of a high enough calibre to deal with the weird angles, but he was getting caught a lot with unexpectedly timed shots a lot. Loma isn't shot, Haney is just good.
Technical boxers fall down when they go KO hunting. It's volume of punishment that leads to the stoppages usually, but naturally as you get more and more elite opponents, the TKOs naturally fade. I don't think this is something you can chase, outside of the heavyweightsComment

Simple to learn difficult to master for sure. But, all I'm saying is loma needs to be more hunting for the knockout like he used to be in the lower divisions. If he's gonna lose a gift decision, he might as well go for broke and try to win everything.Comment
