Commey Doesnt want to fight Loma next.

But, bro, the kid doesn't need time. He's so loud, clear, and insulting in his callouts to Loma. He wants it now. Are you afraid for Loma or Lopez? What's the problem? Lopez is killing himself to make 135. He can't wait. Oblige him.
Don't get angry again or bring Davis into it. Just answer the questions.Last edited by BoxingIsGreat; 04-06-2019, 07:00 PM.Comment

Theofimo said in a interview he would still fight in januari,februari in 2020,but not after that.
i would prefer that so he can get some experience against a couple better fighters before they face offComment

Teofimo is very confident but he needs to be pulled back a bit. As a big fan of his I think early 2020 is a perfect time for the fight to happen.Comment

He said if he really had to. It was painfully clear from his expression that was not ideal or good. Why are we avoiding or postponing this fight? Who are we protecting?
As a Loma fan, I wanna see this now. Loma would be so motivated for this fight. Believe that.Last edited by BoxingIsGreat; 04-06-2019, 07:14 PM.Comment

who's taking or postponing, were talking about having a better Lopez after a couple of better fighters he will face before Loma,if anything he's be a better fighter for it and a stiffer test for Loma.Comment

Agreed up to a point. There are absolute limits of course, unless you think every great fighter is required to keep stacking the odds against themselves by climbing the weight classes until they lose regardless of whether there's a compelling fight to make or not.When you are the #1 p4p fighter in the world you need to fight people who present a challenge. Period. You need to find them at whatever weight class they are. Mayweather never weighed more then 153 on a fight night and fought at 154 pounds. He went after and chased the biggest names in the sport and fought them, no matter what weight class they were in.
Mikey Garcia just went up to 147 to fight Errol Spence Jr. and he started at 126lbs. That's someone who is daring to be great. That is what Lomachenko needs to do. Loma should at least be able to fight a big name fighter at 140, or meet a Welterweight at a cw. If not, there are names at 130, he should move down and fight them.
Loma is already small at 135 and finished his growing some years ago. At 140 he'd be very seriously outsized though if a real star emerges from the WBSS or elsewhere I'd like to see him try. Likewise the top guys at 130 - Berchelt, Tank (both of whom are likely to move up before long anyway)... of course Lopez at 135.
And P4P? - I think the concept is ******, but even if you do subscribe to that nonsense and have Loma at #1 as you seem to indicate, then surely the only requirement to stay there is to perform as or more impressively than other top fighters against similar level or better opposition. If you don't think he's doing enough then move him down your list. Simples.Last edited by Citizen Koba; 04-07-2019, 03:48 AM.Comment

I have him at #1 because of his skills and the fact he's fought much better opposition then Crawford. Crawford might have the worst resume in the top 10 list, name wise. To call a fighter like that #1 is ******ed.Agreed up to a point.

And if we're talking size, Mayweather weighed 149/150 on fight night when he fought at 147. Loma, if he is truly as skilled as they say he is, should be able to fight at 140 off of skills alone. He's not that small.Last edited by lolpz; 04-07-2019, 07:48 AM.Comment
