Loma never wanted to fight Tank then ducked him when Bob was ready to cash out. Nasty work.

    So now it’s “smart moves” when it’s Loma. He should have to explain it when there’s a false narrative that came from his side and said Tanks was scared to fight him. Now that his promoter is ready to take the protection plan off, it’s “I’m not motivated” lol. But you’re right it was smart because he was going to leave boxing being a highlight reel knockout.

    Let’s not forget he ducked Shakur. If he’s fighting at a less than ideal weight as u say, why didn’t he move down to fight Shakur at 130?
    You take things personally and project that onto boxers. Loma or tank for that matter Don't have to explain nothing to nobody. Loma has had 10 times the career tank will ever have whether he fights again or not. You really think Shakur is chasing Loma? I don't know how you made that decision considering Shakur it's another one trying to massage a goose egg at the expense of fighting the best.

      Creating narratives it's the new pastime... Now we have poor tank. Chasing Loma and chasing and chasing... And lomas latest excuse? He happens to be nearing 40 years old having fought above this weight for a good part of his career so he could get competitive fights. Poor tank!

        Huh? I’m not taking anything personal I’m stating facts. Loma had 10x the career Tank has? Tank is already a bigger draw than Loma. Loma has 3 losses. Nobody cares about his amateur career after he turned pro, albeit a good accomplishment but once u step up to the next level it’s a thing of the past. And yes, Shakur was chasing Loma when he was at Top Rank. Arum presented it to Loma and he chose Kambosos, that was out of Arums mouth

          Look up lomas career his ideal weight was below the way he fought at. He fought up because there was no competition. I stand by that. Again again, the fact that Loma fought r i g o with the major advantage does not mean anything to me. I grant you that.

          You have to be kidding. Loma is passing his Twilight years would you seriously take that fight if you were loma?
          Now Frank was custom made for Tank lol u keep saying Loma fought above his ideal weight for better fights. For one, there were fights at 130 that were better than his fights at 135. The only “better” fight he had at 135 was Haney. Teo was not a big name when Loma fought him. Jamaine Ortiz, Commey, Nakatani, Crolla, Luke Campbell, Nakatani are not big fights. He fights at 135 because it’s his ideal weight. So Loma being past his twilight years is a good enough excuse for him to duck the biggest fight of his career against the same fighter people said was avoiding him. LOL. Okay sir

            Bigger draw? Who cares if that is even true. Jake Paul it's a bigger draw than both of them together. So?

            Shakur never chased anybody lol. Anybody can call somebody out doesn't mean they'll take a fight with him. Let's just look at the behavior of both men to see who truly called a fighter out for a match. Loma for Haney and Teo, who has Shakur fought?

              You obviously having agenda if you think Haney and Teo we're not better fights. These two young lions were coming up. Both of them were considered very dangerous I don't know where you get this opinion that t e o was not yet a force to be reckoned with but we'll just agree to disagree.

              Like I said I would like to see if you were Loma you were hitting 37 years old fighting at a weight that is above your ideal weight taking on a dangerous puncher at this time of your career. There's no benefit for him it's smarter and more mature to simply admit that ship has passed. Everybody is such a critic when it comes to talking about fights a fighter should take. Lol. I'm not even a fan of Loma and I understand the man has nothing to prove.

              You want to talk about fighterd and fights they should take? Talk to Haney and tell him he should be fighting Ryan to redeem any respect he has left. He is a young man, lost in the eyes of so many, and obviously is set up for a rematch yet you're here talking about a veteran going against someone in the prime of their career who is very talented and able.

              Many people think Loma beat Haney. Even if Loma believed he could go the distance with tank do you really think anyone with sense would put it in the hands of the corrupt judges? Pitbull spanked tank.

              Tank is a smart operator and he knows exactly who to fight for minimum risk. That's why he wants this Loma fight now. It does not mean he's not talented. It does not mean he's not gifted intellectually when it comes to boxing strategy.

                Beterbiev just fought someone 6 years younger than him at the age of 39, and no one is saying Bivol tried to age him out. Once again, when did Loma ever say he wanted to fight Tank or Bob Arum say he tried to negotiate it? Never. Just accept that now was the time to fight and Loma ducked him. He just got his first KO in 5 years over Kambosos who went the distance with Haney and Teo, but now Lomas old. LOL

                  Once again, I never commented on what Loma did in the past. I assume Arum will co ck blk fights regardless... You are comparing apples to oranges with this fight. many reasons why... Like in heavier divisions fighters age differently, and the actual condition of each fighter, because some fighters are simply more shop worn... Davis is a cherry picker, and he saw a ripe cherry for the taking. Loma is past an age where he should be fighting a prime puncher who is bigger than him. Your desire to inflate the serial cherry pickeer at Loma's expense is laughable at this point so yes... LOL, indeed!
