    Those ratings are BS, what ever you think of Mares how the hell does Rodriguez get in above him? That one i DO NOT UNDERSTAND.

    You're all the same boxing fans that shout BS when a fight you hate, normally of a particular nationality or ethnic background, fights an unworthy opponent and then claim rankings are ****...now you're using those same rankings to allow excuses for a fighter you like. This really is a telling thread, exactly what I expected lol.

    Be fight fans, not fighter fans.

      I agree. Lomachenko (4 fights) has a similar professional resume to LSC (29 fights). Quite sad for LSC.

        When have I ever discriminated based on nationality?

        It is what it is. They are paying bottom dollar on the undercard for May vs. Pac, Arum wanted Lomachenko on there as a showcase, and he happened to have an easy/cheap fighter near the top the rankings.

        LSC hasnt faced a threat in ages. On top of that he hasn't shown any interest in fighting the top fighters in his division.

        Like I said if Lomachenko is still fighting Rodriguez' of this world in a couple fights then I'll join you in criticizing.

          This undercard was doomed from the beginning because of how popular the main event is. Loma/Rodriguez is an HBO BAD co-main at best, but the opponent could've been much worse. Was there anyone else on the table for him to face?

            We know Loma will fight better fighters after this. This is a gimme to make him look good on the biggest PPV ever so that he will have hype going into bigger fighters. The plan is clear, it's decades old and proven.

            Quacker Cruz is fighting awful opponent after awful opponent. He deserves to be criticized.

              To be fair Loma says the same, in a interview he said he never understood the rankings when he fought Piriya or w/e his name is because he thought there were fighters below him that were better, and he wants to fight the best. His manger already said there working on a possible Walters fight later this year.

                  So let's not ***** about LSC only then (God knows I hate him) but we gotta treat em both equally.

                  LSCs promoters say the exact same thing all the time....Loma is gonna hog that WBO belt like there's no tomorrow. He's skilled, he's quick but he doesn't have the physical strength to fight guys like Walters or Donaire or if Frampton ever moves up in weight.

                    Loma shuts out Donaire whos not even a legit feather. Isnt he moving down? Its also most presumptuous to think Frampton would be too strong for him.

                    Its also silly claiming Loma gonna sit on the belt when hes got the best 5 fight record in boxing

                      Are we talking about the same Lomachenko that does multiple one arm pull ups with either arm?
