    loma is definitley different for sure....but im not so sure that he would act differently given the chance at mega money...but who knows...i just dont think mega money will ever be there for him...but he will still make some good coin
    It's worth a look. Reminds me a bit of Ward in terms of a strong team behind him and willing to go to the max in training. Also some interesting training techniques on display.

      without seeing it ive already seen enough things on loma to know he has some different training techniques for sure...probably helps make him so unique....always found it interesting how his father pulled him out of the gym to take dance....of course espn was selling the **** out of him with the hat, ball and elastic thing...which i also thought was kind of neat

      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

          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.
          Yes 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.

            He did a lot better than I expected him to.

              Money's great, best of his era but this little dude is fun to watch. Stays in the pocket and don't hug. I feel sorry for any boxing fan who can't enjoy his game.

                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.
                It's incredibly faster, since guys don't have to worry about going an incredible distance, they go all out each round. Plus, clinching is strictly banned.

                There are tons of incredible prizefighters who have never gone pro.

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 dunno if GGG was ready to go 12 championship rounds in his second pro fights, GGG doesn't have the athleticism and skillset of a Loma.

                    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
                    The comparison with Floyd is ****** I agree.

                      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.
