Comments Thread For: Lomachenko Might Not Realize It, But He Needs Teofimo Lopez

[Letmaku]

Loma vs Tank or Lopez at 135 if Loma is afraid of Mikey or Pacman at 140.

The big question is whether Lomachenko will get any credit for beating a 21 year old who's best win is Edis Tatli. I would rather see him fight Berchelt next if not Commey.

This right here. I like Lopez but the people calling for this fight will give Loma 0 credit if he wins. They will throw Lopez aside and find someone else to say Loma is 'ducking.'

Not to mention that Loma has a habit of breaking a guy's will in the ring when he wins. Walters was hyped then after that fight is non-existent. Russell lost a lot of shine after that loss. The list goes on.

I'd like to see the fight and would give Lopez a decent chance with his size but a lot of the people saying it is a dangerous fight for Loma would give him next to 0 credit if Loma won.

I give Loma a lot of credit beating Russell, but that’s about it. Lately (many years) it’s been nothing but Cans.

He ran from his career defining fight against Mikey, let’s see if he’ll oblige Lopez.

Wow this is honestly one of the worst takes I have seen on this site lol.

Loma in 13 fights already has one of the best resumes, maybe the best, of any current fighter. Just because he dominated the Walters and Rigos etc, I guess some people try and say those guys suck? That's crazy.

Those fights were 50/50 going in and I've seen people make excuses after the fact, but I have never seen someone say Loma hasn't been fighting the best lol. He's one of the few guys who does.

I would give Lopez a shot against Loma due to size, but no more of a shot going in than Rigo Walters Russell Linares Pedraza had and Loma won all of those decisively. So if you can't give him credit for those wins how can you call Lopez a big fight lol? If Loma wins you would just say Lopez ****** and was too young and would find someone else.

And saying he ran from Mikey, I mean that's crazy. That's literally the biggest exposure and money fight for him with great upside and fairly limited downside. Lol man most posters on here are so tribal.

Definite possibility if Crolla got bitten by an exotic spider.

HAHA!! Spider-Man with boxing skills

Loma needs Lopezto become a big PPV draw and be the one everyone wants to fight. Like Wlad, Mayweather, Canelo etc.. Even Tank would be begging for the fight lf that happens.

Loma doesn't need him to prove his skills. Yes, it would add to his resume and move him closer to the #P4P position, but that's a subjective list and everyone has their own criteria. Like Roy Jones, he makes it look so easy that there will always be someone saying he wasn't tested or doesn't deserve to be in the P4P discussion.

Good post. I just read someone on here say Loma hasn't fought anyone since Russell lol. I mean wtf. Lopez would be a great win but some people will never give Loma full credit and I don't think a fight should be forced right now just to appease people who aren't fans of either fighter (a lot of people pushing this fight just want to see Loma lose but would be the same people saying Lopez ****** if Loma made it look easy).

Idec is really becoming worse and worse lately. Just another clickbait article where he is trying to ram his own extremely biased US cheerleading agenda down our throats.

Maybe let Teofima beat somebody with a pulse first? Dude is 21 and of course calls out the big names because he knows that his own promoter is not that ****** to let him in with Loma yet.

Always ****riding the US fighters, even when they have done absolutely nothing yet and calling Loma not marketable, not wanting to do whats "needed" to become a star? What kind of utter degenerate bullcrap is this?

[Boxing_1013]

He was a grown ass man.

Imagine how dominant Lebron would've been if he stayed in college until he was 23 years old.

Imagine how dominant Zion would have been if he was allowed to play his first year in college and not go to the NBA...oh wait

[Boxing_1013]

Both the guys that Loma fought for those gold medals were 5 and 4 years older than him though...

Facts don't matter to some...they start with the conclusion in mind and throw out stories, regardless of the veracity, to support that pre-determined narrative

Loma is one of the biggest stars in the sport and the biggest of any of the little guys probably. Only 2 guys can do a PPV these days against almost anyone. Not Loma's fault that he can't, that model just isn't really there anymore.

I think l0m0 beats him but the kid wants it. I say put the kid in there.

Did you take your meds today? I have never seen a somewhat normal post from you on here. Are you feeling OK?
