He went after a legend in Hopkins twice, beat him, then instead of pulling a Stevenson he agreed to DROP in weight to fight the number 2 pound for pound fighter. After that he came back up in weight to fight a guy in Stevenson who everyone hates but has to acknowledge the devastating power. Instead of commending him for trying to shoot for the hall of fame, people just made fun of him. It was unfair, like god damnit he was the first one to clearly beat Hopkins in like twenty years.
    thats how it works on this site. unless you are top elite level, you are a bum. theres no middle ground.

      if he follows through, that is demanding greatness

        then he will knock crawford crying back to momma
        Loma can beat Garcia but Crawford is a bit too much for him. Loma cant trouble Crawford and any other 140 pounder with his poor punching power. So the only chance to beat Crawford is to outbox him which is a very hard task.

          Loma P4P is FAR superior to Crawford but Crawford is way too big and would crush him.

            It might not be other fighters won't fight him, maybe it has something to do with Arum only allowing Top Rank fighters to fight other Top Rank fighters 99% of the time. Lomachenko is great, but the only big fight for him with TR is Crawford. And Arum don't want them fighting anytime soon, they are his best fighters.

              I have a feeling that people are going to give him the credit for just saying it, which is annoying. All sorts of fans do that these days. They give credit for fights that never happened and try to erase their losses. But, these same people are always discrediting the guys who've actually put in the work and gathered the W's.

              I'm not doubting Loma. I think he'll follow through. I just know the extremist fans won't wait that long.

                I really hope that doesn't become a problem

                and not just with Garcia

                      I like Loma's thinking! I think Garcia @ 135 is the biggest fight he can make! I don't understand why he's talking about Crawford @ 140, because Arum has already offered him Pacquiao @ 140. I love Crawford but if i'm Loma, a fight with Pacquiao @ 140 is a bigger fight than Crawford @ 140.
