Too late now. Lomachenko has announced retirement in the Kambosos post fight presscon.
How do Gervonta Davis fans feel about him avoiding prime Loma?

A tweet really? Loma’s Shukar Stevenson now. lol everyone knows the best way to make a fight is to go on Twitter.
The blame lies where the blame lies
Loma himself had even contacted floyd directly in 2017 to goad him into making the tank fight
The feeling still isn’t likely to be mutual, but Vasyl Lomachenko wants to fight Gervonta Davis. Lomachenko made that clear Tuesday by sending a Tweet to Floyd Mayweather Jr. that referred to Mayweather’s reluctance to match Davis against him. Mayweather, whose company promotes Davis, has repeatedly indicated that Davis won’t fight Lomachenko at any point in the foreseeable future.Comment

How many fights do cross promotion? Floyd Manny, Fury Wilder 2 and 3, Tank Ryan Garcia just off the top of my head. And all of those fights had big cross over potential. Not necessarily Tank Loma. That’s why neither side really entertained making it. The only way they could’ve made the fight is if one side allowed their fighter to go over and fight on the other network. Neither side was willing to do that. So my point was why does one side take all of the blame while the other lies blameless?Originally posted by IceTrayDaGang
because at the time, Loma was the guy to beat! he was the star (kinda like how tank is right now)... there was no mention of any interest of fighting him from tank... just because they are promoted under 2 different companies doesn't really mean anything.. fights got made in the past from 2 different companies... and at the time, Loma was is his prime, are you saying Arum doesn't believe Loma could be tank during that time? you know arum don't have any problems co-promoting fights when HE knows HIS fighter will win and at the time Loma had all the advantage to beat tank!Comment

THANK YOU! The people on this site really make me want to punch them. Bob Arum has always said he doesn’t care for cross promotion fights unless they’re big. Tank just became a real star a few of fights ago. Loma was bigger than Tank, so if anything Lona should’ve been pushing for the fight because he was the A side. Did he? NO! It’s not Tanks fault he’s older now. Even in the post fight interview he didn’t sound enthused to fight Tank. IDK why people on this site start hating on fighters when they become a draw

boxing is an amazing spectator sport, there is no black & white just many shades of grey

In boxing there’s too much dck riding so you will never get an honest assessment. If you like it fighter then people will always find a way to justify their decisions. And people will find a way to blame the fighters they don’t like.

....and he loses his fights occasionally. That slows up the process.
Both fighters on opposite sides of the boxing political spectrum. So why does all the blame lie on Tank and why does Loma get a pass? Loma has the best promotion company and the biggest sports network in America on his side. Why wasn’t there any pressure on him to make the fight? He’s the higher ranked more accomplished fighter.Comment
