Comments Thread For: Mikey Garcia: No Credit, Lomachenko Doing What I Did Years Ago!

[therealpugilist]

I don't think Mayweather-Maidana is a fair comparison.

Maidana done some dirty work over the fight, sure, but Salido pulled more dirty tricks in single rounds than Maidana did over that whole fight.

I've never seen anything like it: Salido didn't bother making weight, he was headbutting like a mountain goat and he was literally throwing low blows like they were perfectly legal body shots and the ref just stood there. How that fight didn't end in a DQ remains an absolute disgrace.

Lomachenko was genuinely punished for fighting clean. Instead, they rewarded the headbutting, weight cheating, low blow merchant.

have you seen Pep-saddler 2?

Maidana threw elbows, threw knees lol...low blows, hip shots, floyd adjusted

their are so many examples...id have to see loma in with another rough guy, but an elite one, then he'd be in real top p4p conversation...regardless of the factors, he still lost

he isnt the first boxer who had to overcome a bigger, stronger, experienced, dirty fight...wont be the last

[.!WAR MIKEY!.]

I can dig it.

I was surprised they going this route, Lomachenko trains out of RGBA in oxnard but it looks like Robert Garcia cut all ties with that place and is only attached to it by name now. I did think it was strange how Robert did say he was rooting for kovalev cause he trains out of their gym and mikey said he rooting for ward so should have seen it coming the signs been their the entire time and I cant say I hate it, NO FRIENDS IN THIS SPORT! One thing I respected about Mayweather was dude was a fighter he didnt play that friendly shit. Cant stand fighters like ward who says they will never fight dirrel or xyz because of this and that blah blah blah STFU and fight.

have you seen Pep-saddler 2? every illegal tactic in boxing was used in that fight...saddler was the type of fighter who'd hit the bottom of your shoes, if it was something available to hit

You know what that sounds like??? EXCUSES!!!

The DUDE had over 350 amateur fights with only 1 loss. How the F are you NOT ready??? No amount of crying or making up excuses is going to get that 0 back.

Did you know the salido loss never actually happened? to some posters that is, here's the thing, his career best win vs gary russel jr was only what like 3 or 4 months after his loss to salido, of course he was ready salido just has the style that gave him problems

It wasn't the style that gave him problems, it was the ref allowing Salido to punch him in the balls every 30 seconds and headbutt him. It's the worst case of constant cheating I have seen in a boxing ring.

Walters is a better win than Russell.

100% true.

I remember when Gary Russell was known as "TBA" all those years on NSB, suddenly Loma beats him and Russell is taken seriously lmao

and lets stop the bullshyt of not counting his WSB pro fights, the guy is almost 30 years old. He's a great fighter but his resume and accomplishments are severely overrated.

Walters looked like he mentally checked out of the fight, he probably lost his passion after getting robbed against Sosa.
Walters was landing quite a bit of Loma but suddenly decided to give up when he started getting hit, dude has some problems outside of the ring that sort of behavior is not normal.

He checked out because he was starting to get annihilated.

Walters didn't land anything big in the whole fight, he was getting more confused with each round and quit because of how badly he was dominated in the 'final' round.

Nothing big but he was still landing, I had Loma up about 2-3 rounds, it was a very competitive fight and far from a shutout. I don't think that was the best version of Walters in there, not after a 1 year layoff fighting in just his 2nd time at that weight coming off an L.

Holy sht!!! Well said. I forgot about that??? Soo Loma could beat Russell but not Salido a few months earlier?? He not ready doe??
