ive always believed if you want to create something unqiue you have do something unique.....im from new england..been a patriots fan my whole life....season ticket holder/diehard...i travel to alot of away games....watching tom brady still be elite in his 40's without alot of physical talent has sold me on being unique....he used alot of unique recovery methods and stretchign techniques and stresses pliability...doesnt lift weights and uses bands ...also a strict diet
for many years it was though that to survive in the nfl you have to lift free weights...our all world TE had been struggling with injuries through most of his career and just last year he began following toms regimen and played a full, healthy, year

Lomachenko beat a guy who had already been stopped 3 previous times. Went around collecting vacant titles and beating Euro bums and rematching them.
I been calling Linares a fraud since before a fight with Loma was even a possibility. Ask 1hourRun me and him went back & forth about Linares a while ago so this ain't me hating just because he fought loma.

Originally posted by 1hourRun View PostYes I confirm we had our argument over Linares grade as a champion. As Curt said, I think in the end Linares proved a lot of people wrong in his performance against the so called P4P, and deserves some respect.

while you can't compete at european or world amateur lvl if you pop out of nowhere. lots of great amateurs dont turn pro either. in some cases AMs completely better than cans from Pros. more hungry, younger, faster etc.
There are tons of incredible prizefighters who have never gone pro.

GGG didn't have the promotional force of Top Rank behind him to allow him the same opportunities that Lomachenko has been given. GGG would've happily fought for a title in his second pro fight, and he would've had a good chance of winning too.

i am giving loma full props...hes great...just think when they keep repeating that "record" thing its a bit ridiculous....like i said i realize its a selling point....but he really didnt do it any faster than floyd.....he did it in less pro fights....so when they say "Fastest" im not really buying it

I think they are different, but each very respectable, accomplishments.
Fewest fights, or youngest - both very cool, but I don't really rate one over the other.
