Comments Thread For: Josh Taylor Has Requested That There Aren't Three American Judges For Teofimo Lopez Fight

[tkoboxingscene]

The beneficiary of the biggest robbery in recent times is worried about judges? I suppose he wants Kinahan to pick the judges

[Oregonian]

Boxers should always aim to make the judges opinions meaningless. Deliver a whoopin' that no one can deny. Otherwise, you gotta live with someone's decision.

Not always possible to KO, but boxers can always drop a guy. If I couldn't drop a guy, I would never complain about a decision. Gotta be focused, in shape, trained and aggressive.

What’s the old adage we hear all the time? It looks easy from outside the ring until you get in the ring.
Every single guy that has fought anyone says exactly what you said until they get beat.

It would have, and I expressed my distaste for Tank doing that when it was announced. That little move Tank did led me to root for Garcia. Although I also had Tank winning by KO with or without the clause. What the clause did for me was led me to stop being neutral for this fight and root for Ry instead of being ok with either guy winning.

But, imo, Tank winning was a foregone conclusion regardless. There’s nothing Ry does better than Tank.

It was a money grab for both.

Don't you think the fight would have beem more interesting if their was not rehydration clause. Tank fought Barrios at 140 with no rehydration clause. Tank is the better fighter as it is, then add the weight issue. If doesn't make it a 50 50 fight. Imagine if Loma had given Haney a rehydration clause. That would have been bull****.

Loma could've done just that when he had the belts and Devin was his mandatory. He chose to duck him, and lose his leverage. His own fault, nobody else's. Have no idea why you'd bring this up here, because it's not relevant. Your catchweight king clenelo is the biggest user of rehydration clauses - take that smoke to a thread about him

Im not Canelo fan. Loma was busy fighting for Undisputed. Haney struggle with an Smaller Older man. Imagine if Loma was any younger and didnt have a long layoff. No one Duck Pitty pat, Clinching Haney.

I dislike when any A-Side does catch-weight/rehydration clauses, especially for titles. Canelo did it against Fielding. Davis did the same when he fought Barrios, but boxingitis wasn't aware that Garcia wasn't Davis' first opponent who had to deal with weight shenanigans. It's good to keep track of the situations in which A-sides abuse their power.

How is a rehydration clause an abuse of power? Fighters can avoid all this ****** whining by fighting people their own size. Y'all keep b*#ching about this, but y'all do realize at some point there were same day weigh-ins? A rehydration clause is actually still more advantageous to bigger guys compared to same day weigh-ins. Think about that before whine about this nonsense

Loma never fought for undisputed until last week, dumb@ss. Loma Relinquished the WBC to fight Lopez. Haney was elevated to WBC and subsequently made the fight for Undisputed with Kambosos. Actually look into what you're talkinf about before you spew nonsense on public playforms and expose your ignorance

Loma signed to fight the winner of Commey vs Lopez, THEN after that WBC elevated Loma to franchise champion and made Haney champ.

By chosing Lopez Loma was going for the 4th belt, his team thought WBC would wait and they were wrong, as usual.

So I think That's what Dude meant by saying Loma chose to go the undisputed route.

You've got one thing wrong: WBC didn't take a unilateral decision on the situation lomachenko petitioned the WBC to give him the french friez belt - it's a decision he made.

Yes but why Haney wasn't fighting someone his own size last week?

Because boxing rules are circus and the A side can manipulate those rules as they want as long as they pay the commissions.

Boxing is the only sport with garbage catchweight, sanctionned youtuber pro fights, rehydration clause, or 36 hours weigh in.

You say Garcia should fight people his own size, talk about same day weigh in but you defend Haney fighting Loma with 36 hours to rehydrate.
Double standard...
