    I don't know who gave him six rounds.

    If you're telling me you'd rather Loma remain a bum beater for the remainder of his career vs. rematch and get a definitive, decisive outcome against the one guy other than Salido to tarnish his record, I feel for you. That'd be a WAY better fight than anything in front of him right now besides Tank - and that ain't happening anytime soon.

      Didn't you know Hagler lost to lesser fighters than Salido when he was coming through? And not in Hagler's second fight either...

      Actually i was talking about Crolla, not Loma and i was using Hagler as an example, not a comparison. I wasn't saying was anywhere near Hagler obviously. My point is that Crolla having 6 or 7 losses doesn't mean he is a bum. I was saying that some fighters have losses on their record from early on when they weren't padding their record.

      I was making a point that even supposed ATG's like Hagler lost fights on the way up, so it can happen to anybody and it doesn't mean they're a bum.

      Learn to read properly my friend, your mind is very simple if you cannot read in context and realise it was not a comparison, it was an example. You're the only ****** here, you cannot even read in context. You must have the reading age of a 9 year old.

        Marquez, Hopkins, Pac and Salido all had seven or more losses. Would it be a big deal to KO them? Yes.

          One of the judges gave him 6 rounds.

          Also, I want to see Loma fight the best. I was hoping for a Garcia fight, even though I think Loma would lose. He's a bigger threat than Lopez despite getting his arse kicked by Spence.

            It isn't! Loma was in there with a former overmatched, diminished champion, past his prime and on the decline. He had nothing to prove against beating up a washed up and shot fighter.

                Fact remains that Crolla is a former world title-holder, and is universally regarded as a current top-10 ranked Lightweight (TBRB #7; Ring #5) so it's a pretty decent victory for Lomachenko. Crolla was a mandatory and everybody knows that he was supposed to fight Commey before his injury. Loma should be getting no hate whatsoever for dispatching Crolla within 4 rounds. He did what he had to.

                  And I see you neglected to confirm him as a former world champion who went 24 rounds with Linares.

                  The way he dominated and despatched him was special.

                  It doesn't matter that the opponent wasn't elite. He was a world level fighter.

                    And Crawford now wants to KO a guy with 5 losses who got blown out by a bum in 1 rd.

                    Let Gary Russell fight Tank

                      Yet "TILL THIS DAY!!"...people call Marquez's KO of Manny a lucky punch, Manny was off balance, he tripped, etc.

                      Yet Crawford got flack for facing Horn when he was the mandatory.

                      See, nothing but hypocrisy around here.
