Comments Thread For: Arum Denies Lomachenko Is Ducking Stevenson: He Wants to Take Time Off; Situation Is Still Going On In Ukraine

[boxingitis]

But if Haney would have rematched him then Ukraine wasn’t a problem.

Bob Arum wouldn’t deliver a Pacquiao fight to Crawford, which could have made him a big star much sooner. Now he wont deliver a Lomachenko fight to Shakur Stevenson. Shakur should think about getting a new promoter.

It's probably Bob Arum's fault that Haney and Tank don't fight Shakur.

Bob Arum made Crawford vs Felix Diaz, Joh Molina, Shawn Porter and maybe Amir Khan who were all advice by Al Haymon at the time. But Spence couldn't, we know why. He was scared to get humiliated earlier.

It was probably Bob's fault the first negotiations between Al Haymond, Spence, and Crawford didn't go through and Crawford fought Avanesyan instead .

It's always Bob Arum's fault not the fighters.

If Loma doesn't give it to Shakur that's not arums fault. Tf you want him to do throw him in the ring?

Ive said it before loma got robbed and the guy is 35. Thats honestly the best performance he gave in a long time against a young bigger longer and stronger champion and got robbed. He not only lost but lost a chance at being undisputed. I'd be surprised if he keeps fighting

Dude stop the excuse making.

I dont think it was a robbery. Even if you do that isnt a valid excuse. Bad decisions have happened throughout history. You dust yourself off and move forward.

Besides- this wasnt a Sweet Pea/Ramirez or Manny/Bradley robbery. Hell, this wasnt even as bad as the Carterall/Taylor ir Teo/Martin scores imo.

It’s his 2nd consecutive loss trying to be undisputed. Its not time to retire just because the road to a 3rd attempt is tough.

Just remember-Had he not avoided Haney earlier and fought him, Haney wouldn’t be headed to 140 and a rematch could be next.

I knew you couldn’t handle a conversation based on boxing and facts and would resort to this once I made clear this wasn’t a robbery by comparing it to actual robberies.

Make sure you use you’re instead of your when calling someone a moron. Makes you look twice as ******.

Ukraine is about the same size as Texas.
When war breaks, it doesn't mean the whole area is affected.
War can only cover a minuscule portion in this case and the rest is relatively quiet.
But that doesn't mean it's okay because everything depends on how the country functions as a whole.

What facts? Lmfao all you said was you thought hankey deserved the robbery. That's not fact you idiot

I have been a big Loma fan for years. He has an amazing skillset. Unfortunately he is declining due to age and wear and tear. He beat Haney IMO, but he isn't beating Shakur. At this point Loma is going to beat lower tier and middle tier guys, but struggle with really good to elite. Part of me wants to see Loma whip Kambosis really good and call it a day. He will shoulder and other injuries for the rest of his career and I for one don't want to see him as a gatekeeper type of fighter.

Shakur is elite. Loma has a shot but I think he loses a UD.

[Boxing God]

What a joke! Loma knows he'll get waxed up. He was clearly pursuing a re-match with Haney and now that Haney is moved up Loma is conveniently going back to the Ukraine.

[GhostofDempsey]

Lmfao. This is embarrassing. Lying just makes it worse.

Loma had 2 tough fights in a row with Ortiz and Haney. Shakur is better than both and is better Than Teo, who outboxed Loma.

Loma would surely lose to Shakur so Bob is gonna delay or not make the fight. Pathetic.

This is the kind of stuff Floyd and Crawford are talking about. Remember this when Shakur leaves TR.

The guy who supports Ukraine suddenly wants to tell a Ukrainian when he should support his own country. Damn you are f'king hypocrite!

[Smash]

so does this mean that the war in ukraine is actually less dangerous than stepping into the ring with shakur??

if this is so maybe they should threaten to ship shakur to the war region to clear up the entire mess single handed
