I think Tank will knock this version of Loma out.

tank was eating shots from Martin... yes, I know tank didn't really care about his defense much because he could take the punches from Martin, that's why tank was just walking him down and eating those punches up... BUT remember when Pacquiao did the same, the tank fans aka Floyd fans were talking about how pac didn't have any defense, roach need to teach Manny some defense,etc... but notice how they dont mention anything about tank blocking punches with his face!

Loma has definitely regressed in regards to athleticism and reflexes and he’s never been that difficult to hit.

I’d expect Loma to outwork Tank early and build up a decent lead but in the second half of the fight, Tank will find an opening a take him out.

How do you see this fight going?

Did you just say Loma has never been difficult to hit? lmao.

[Lomadeaux]

Pretty funny watching you guys discuss this fight and not brining up the past 6-7 years when Tank wouldn't even accidentally say Loma's name.

[Lomadeaux]

Tank was a young prospect building his fanbase. Don’t forget, he defeated Pedrazza long before Loma fought him. That was the fight Tank was not top 10 and stepped up to fight an undefeated, top 10 champion with 2 defenses.

I thought Shakur and Loma were. They are in house as well so seemingly no problem.

I think we need to keep consistent. Loma called out Tank because he is the money man in the division. Understandable. But young Tank wasn’t going to beat prime Loma.

So Tank will try to use Loma as the aging veteran win that propels him forward, as had happened throughout the history of the sport.

I agree with you, but let’s call out ducking and protecting every time, not just the PBC guys. Loma is ducking Shakur but wants the money fight with Tank:

Tank ducked Loma, stop with your bull**** fat boy.

As to Loma wanting all the belts- that imo became a fallacy when he asked to be emeritus right before Haney became the mando. If you want all the belts, don’t give one away.

I agree as well. We will see once he leaves TR. I doubt the Tank fight happens. If he goes to 140 I doubt Bob works with him since he left.

His best bet may be Matchroom.

I'm surprised that's your take on it, Teo was considered undisputed when he beat Loma and that's what Loma went for. He ended fighting an even better Haney later on so it's not like he was avoiding him, he really wanted be undisputed. That's always been his thing, it's not a fallacy.

As fo Shakur, I just want to see the best fight the best.

Your trying to read too much into nothing, Tank vs Loma has absolutely nothing to do with Floyd and Manny they are different fighters nothing alike, I don't know why fans throw blankets over so many names, just focus on the individuals in question and you will get a much more accurate to the point debate.

He gets marked up nearly every fight.

[eco1]

Most of yall think Lomachenko just beat Haney last year, but now he's too old? I don't see much decline in him. He's never been as impressive at 135 as he was at 130 and 126. Age has little to do with it.

If it is not, why did they wait so long?

[rickJen]

Lomachenko is on the verge of retiring. The Bobfather needs to make this fight ASAP. Otherwise...

[The Big Dunn]

Tank ducked Loma, stop with your bull**** fat boy.

Just like Loma ducked Shakur.

Tank might just use Loma as an aging vet name.
