Comments Thread For: Lomachenko vs. Pacquiao Still Possible For 2018, Explains Arum

Come on dude. Don't play ******. When other trainers, fathers or even promoters have expressed a guy isn't ready, the idiots start with duck, scared etc etc. When Loma's father said this, those guys said nothing. It's plain to see.

loma is ducking pac. you happy now? salty ass foo.

Of course they are. Loma's dad and Floyd are making smart decisions based on their experience. The job of a trainer is to develop a fighter so he can maximize his talent, not rush him into a fight he has little chance to win to prove to NSB denizens that he isn't ducking. The job of a promoter is to maximize the fighter's financial success.

Spot on. Just because a fighter shows promise and has legitimate talent doesn’t mean he should be thrown to the wolves. I mean, experience is a real thing ffs, and there’s only one way to get it. I commend fighters for taking steps up, but I would advise against it. Like Lubin for example. He deserves credit, but I questioned how ready he was. I would have had no problem had he passed on that fight.

And it’s as if developing a fighter only applies to someone they’re a fan of. You have to be consistent.

Yeah, Lubin is the perfect example of this. So was Fernando Vargas back in the day. Hubris may have cost both long, profitable careers.

Loma smacks old pac around.

Crawford is really the odd man out in all of this. It's crazy that Loma is going to get a shot before TC.

It will be very interesting to see what's there for him after Horn, b/c no top PBC WW will be on ESPN anytime soon. Espinoza would never approve that.

Last nan night i watch Bud vs Gamboa, and i think if Gamboa has more power, he would KO Bud! Bud took a lot of clean punch

[Tricky-Pablo]

I wanna see Loma vs a fast hands, so i wanna see this match!!

Yep. David Reid comes to mind also. When he fought Tito.
