    I've never once heard any one over the last few months want to duck Loma, heck, Loma doesn't even get mentioned cos his team don't bother trying to make him have fights. I'm sure guys like Selby would be more than happy to step in the ring with Loma.

    What makes you think he is avoided?

      Not a fan, never see him fight i dont even know his face. but it all the same, you and me know how important the bums boxer fought in their resume. they need those kind of fights to shape them psychally and mentally early in their career.

      I check his boxrec and he doesnt really fight bums, Loma need atleast 5 rod salka in this satge of his career.

            Boxing is full of divas, but Loma is the absolute worst choice you could make to personify that. His resume so far hold up in any era at any weight class.

              Vasyl wanted to be thrown in the deep end of boxing and he did so, grabbed a belt/noodle, then proceeded to swim back into the shallow end.

                    LOL exactly.

                    Track back to my posts post-Russell and I said that Loma and/or his team were just gonna start milking the title. They realised that against a rugged pro he would not be able to sustain his work rate and ability, not yet anyway. So by making a few cheap headlines with "champion in 5 fights" or whatever it was, they've gone back to building Loma like a fringe contender on his way up.
