Great Win but Loma Not Better than Floyd

[daggum]

Would have been a great fight to have seen.

Floyd had Castillo at 135 who gave Floyd hell and won the first fight imo. Loma had Linares who gave Loma hell and Loma KO'd him.

castillo is a slow come forward fighter. linares is a great boxer who has never been outboxed. his only problem is his durability and loma is not a power puncher and yet he still outboxed him. floyd went cherry picking and just miscalculated. loma took a risk pitting his skills against another highly skilled boxer while moving up in weight. also floyd wanted no part of stevie johnston so you can see the type of opponent floyd wanted

Everyone who actually believes Floyd ducked Stevie Johnson please speak up. Idiot

Loma won 2 gold medals on two weight classes, Floyd won bronze.

Floyd never made 4 consecutive opponents quit.

Floyd never faced an elite opponent in their prime.

Floyd never put himself at a disadvantage.

Go look up Floyd's 12th opponent while we wait.

Loma fought in the amateurs well into his 20s while Floyd turned pro at 19. Floyd faced plenty of elite prime fighters. Corrales, Castillo, were in their primes and even Hatton was younger with more pro wins and more kos than Floyd.

Floyd came from 130 pounds all the way up to 154 pounds. Let's see Loma even try going to 147. I can guarantee Loma will get beat again by the time he tries to go up that high.
