    Did you just ignore the part about his goal being to become undisputed at 135? I understand that as a tank Davis can you say belts don’t matter, titles don’t matter. They matter. That’s just something people say when they’re undisciplined ass gets stripped of their title on the scales.

    Enjoy your Crollas for the next couple of years.
    “Waiting him out” the novice who has never fought anyone decent gave An ultimatum of “fight me this year or I’m moving up”

    So who’s ducking who?

      Yeah I don’t get it neither, just because he calls for the fight doesn’t mean he is ready for it. I don’t mind the fight to be honest, but Lomachenko doesn’t need it. But I would rather he take that fight if there is nothing serious/bigger for him out there.

        Why would they need to “wait out” Lopez lol. He literally only came to the forefront in his last few fights, he is still a prospect at the end of the day. They are both with rank so hopefully the people that matches them up would agree to it. Am just laughing with the insinuation that Lomachenko might be ducking Lopez. That is truly laughable. The same thing happened with Canelo and Mayweather, I said for months that Canelo is too green and not ready, but nope he ducking.... When it happened schooling, then years later “Oh Mayweather cherrypicked Canelo when he was green” they should rematch now” etc

          Mandatory. OK.

            Loma is no Floyd, and Lopez isn't Canelo. Different classes of fighters. Is someone like Crolla more deserving then?

              So who’s ducking who?
              Everything you say smells of fear. There's nothing better around. Who else should he fight? Commey?

                How does Lopez deserve the fight more than Commey? Because he’s vocal? Or because he dominated William Silva? Or because he KO’d Mason Menard? Or is it because he can do a backflip?

                Everything you say smells of casual.

                  Yup. It’s going to be the exact same. People will be saying Loma is a duck for not coming out of retirement to rematch a prime Lopez at 147 or 154

                    I guess you are OK with mismatches. Cool. I'd rather be casual than think Crolla is an OK opponent.

                      Maybe you should direct your anger at the WBA. They ordered this fight after all. Loma didn't.
