    You just said that Richard Commey was more credible because he has a belt. Now belts aren't credible? Which is it?

    You're all over the place on this one. Tying yourself in knots just to justify not getting a good fight.

      What am I missing then? I was disappointed in both his last fights. Did he impress you? It's not that I don't like him, I do. I wanna see him tested to the limit.

      Pedraza fight was just sad, or was that the limit?
      what if he changes his name to tank davis. then you wont care who he fights. a little fighter moving up coming off a loss? hey now!

      hes literally fighting all the best guys in the division i dont know what you want. garcia was not available for the last 6 months and probably wont fight for another 6 months if ever at 135. 3 top 5 guys in a row isnt good enough because there is some young untested guy that needs to be fought? why can't you wait until lopez is clearly a threat instead of jumping the gun?

Loma's a 3 division champ and has beaten and fought better opposition. I don't understand how Loma would enter that bout as the underdog unless it happens in 10 years and he's 41 to Teofimo's 31. Fighters look good when they fight guys a level below them, but once they start fighting stiffer competition you get a glimpse at who they really are.
        The kid’s best win to date was Magdaleno and him and his dad have the nerves to talk trash about Loma lol! Teofimo is a big 135 and wont be long until he moves up to 140 and I really think Prograis destroys him.

            Lopez does nothing for him now since he beat nobody. Let Lopez fight Pedraza first and see how he does so later if Loma wins theirs no excuses that he didn't fight no one.

            Legacy fight theirs only one at 135 and its Mikey.

            Other fights would be Tank who's team already said a Loma fight ain't happening any time soon and a Berchalt fight which is most likely or unifying which Loma plans to do. So idk what more people want from him.

              you are purposefully conflating 2 different things i said. the belt rankings are not as credible as other ranking bodies like espn, ring, etc...the other thing i said pertained to why fights are made/not made. you are trying to live in an alternate reality where having a belt doesnt matter when it does and lopez is some huge star when hes not.

              you were the one claiming the belt rankings were legit. not me. i largely dont agree with them but i do recognize the reality that belt holders are more sought out than untested undercard prospects. you were unable to keep track of 2 different arguments i put forth so i will dumb it down for you from now on.

                Pedraza's team didn't want any.

                  You said Teofimo Lopez isn't a worthy opponent for Lomachenko because he isn't top 5 and doesn't have a belt. Like Richard Commey.

                  I pointed out to you that Lopez is ranked in the top 5 by two different organizations. Instead of admitting you were wrong you went on a rant about how alphabet rankings and their belts aren't credible after all.

                  You twisted yourself up. Don't blame me.

                    if only he was as popular as you said he could offer pedraza a good purse. the fans want him to fight the best cept hes stuck on undercards because he has no fans. weird.
