Comments Thread For: Teofimo Lopez Plans 140 Move: Loma Fight Must Be in 2019!

[ShoulderRoll]

Richard Commey is not fighting Lomachenko next after Crolla.

It's the perfect time to make a fight with Teofimo. Instead of feeding Lomachenko another tune up level opponent.

its a trend these days, comparing Teo and such to Mayweather..and now even Tyson. trolls should be red. red k sent

stay on topic, hater

It's just a simple observation! You're using his amateur status to make a statement, and i'm saying amateur performance doesn't predict professional success, and I provided an example! Tyson beat up Marvis Frazier and Henry Tillman! Easy Work! Roy didn't win gold, Holyfied won Bronze, and Tyson didn't even make the cut!

The lopez roadmap. Continue calling out lomachenko but move up to 140 lbs before becoming a title holder or mandatory to fight him.

Exactly, thats what most fighters do nowadays, call out the big names knowing you'll not face them.

Wilder build his profile on AJ doing the same.

Teofimo is using Loma, when Teofimo actually fought somebody with a pulse and that fight could be relevant, then he will probably say, he cant make 135 anymore and Loma has to move up to fight him. LOL

Roy didn't win Gold.

Loma would have lost every one of his amateur matches if he was fighting Koreans with the same judges Roy had.

okay, we can go that route. first off, we don't talk whether he won gold or not. He didn't win a Single round in Olympics, he never even had more than 1 round there.

secondly, amateurs have more drive to win than most cans in pros. you can be a nobody and compete in the pros, at the same time - you can't just go and compete in european/world championship, not even going to mention Olympics. those professionals that Teo faced literally nobodies, cans, show up for 5k pay check, you name it.

Teo can ko them all night long, im cool with that. Let him step up and fight someone, because to me he is a Bum. he fought no one, he is nobody as a result. come on guys, have some fate in this sport instead of just..let him earn this shot, Lomo hada chance. Lomo and him on a different level when they started their pro career, and at this point as well. If Teo can get a title by end of this year and looks like Arum don't mind as well - there will be a fight. Hell he can be his mandatory and face Lomachenko.

instead we see Teo saying - we gave him a year, we aint waiting no more etc. he is 21 y.o, and as he himself claimed, we are going to move up for sure, but to stay in 135, just have to keep it real in between the fights and don't "bulk" up like Garcia did. and that applies to all athletes. If he doesnt care about Lomachenko and doesnt want to keep in shape, **** it..add few pounds of muscles and move up. just dont be running your mouth like he does along with his daddy about how they eat and sleep thinking of facing Vasiliy. his dad looks like he is doing coce during some of the interviews. I mean wtf? very disrespectful. Im sure he would of get his ass beat up if he would act like that at his home Honduras. but in US, its trendy to say all kind of **** without backing it up. all these people trying to be Mayweather. there is only one Floyd!

It's impossible to compare Loma and Teofimo because Teofimo is beating professionals at age 21, and Loma was not even a pro until he was 25. I'll wait to see where Teofimo is when he's 25, and I'll get back at you! At present, Teofimo's difficulty making weight is not because he's lazy and out of shape! It's because his body is maturing, because again, he's only 21! If Loma doesn't feel the young man is worthy, that's on him! I don't see a better fight in the near future! Teofimo is different, which is why his name keeps coming up with Loma's, and again, he's only 21!

Just making the point that amateur records don't tell the whole story!

Exactly. Can't have it all ways! Good post.

The fear I smell from the Loma Protection Squad stinks. Let Loma do his thing. Stop fearing and crying for him.

My prediction: Loma's team will wait out Lopez, or pray hard that he loses one of his upcoming fights, to say, "See, I told you, he wasn't that good."
