Reasons why fans are AGAINST Lomachenko vs Lopez

[Curt Henning]

lopez IS without question one of the top 3 most interesting fights that that loma can make at his weight class...the other two are tank and garcia...and garcia is probably a longshot at this point

when you are p4p certified you dont need belts for anything..you need interesting fights that look somewhat competitive on paper....lopez has the size and skillset on paper that make it look interesting.....id guarantee you would get a better price on loma vs lopez than you would against any belt holder in lomas weight class that isnt tank or mikey garcia...meaning lopez would be a smaller underdog than anyone else....

if loma wants the belts he can still go get them after he dispatches lopez

and lopez def wants the fight...he isnt just talking....if he was bob would tell him to pipe down...but its loma that has been fanning the flames on teh fight and lopez keeps running his mouth

Surprised that not so many of these Teo-hopping Loma haters have responded in this thread.

Let's not fool ourselves, you and I both know Lopez won't be able to even touch Loma right now.

When Loma fought Martinez instead of Walters they said he was cherrypicking and avoiding Walters. When he fought Marriaga instead of Rigo they said he was cherrypicking and avoiding Rigo. The pattern continues and when Lopez and Loma actually do fight in the near future (which I hope it doesn't happen because I want Lopez to develop still) Lopez is just going to be seen as yet another fighter that "wasn't competition".

But SURE, I guess we should have this fight happen either this year or next out of sheer curiosity even though it's going to be a wipeout. It'll at least give a lot of people a taste of reality when Loma whitewashes Lopez, if they were to fight so soon.

Your scared he would touch l0m0 that's what it is.

I think most loma fans would like to see a teo fight but to be constantly told u are scarred for not jumping on the bandwagon and calling teo a prospect who hasnt fought anyone decent and wants a shot at a p4p guy, its just a bit weird, crybaby stuff

You know what's weird? Its when you dudes flip flop & didn't say anything when l0m0 got his shot in his 2nd fight but its not okay for Teo to get his.

Green K... Put me down for number 2 and 5 on your list. I actually like the kid. Those using him to deflect from whatever their agenda is are shameful. They know themselves.

Because they have nothing to offer, they are not fans of Lopez, they probably never seen him fight, they probably follow another fighter whose is a rival of Loma or his network. This guys are cancer for the sport of boxing and this forum, they pretend as if the good of boxing is their main concern “What are they scared of” “He just want the fight” “He is better than Crolla” etc

The same posters that would defend another boxer ducking a fight over money, the same posters that would rejoice over a fight not happening... Disgraceful

Agree 100% with OP. I don't think Lopez himself or these people demanding the fight believe what they are asking for they just don't think it will happen because he's a very green prospect and very raw. I've seen people say he had the better amateur career, has better pro credentials and is more skilled. It's obvious trolling.

I want the fight to happen maybe at the end of this year or the first quarter of 2020. If Lopez looks good with his first "credible" opponent Saturday then IMO some of the talk is justified. Loma said it best "When I beat him nobody will care or give credit" it's just like the Rigo and Walters situations when these people said "He'll never fight him" then "He will get destroyed by I won't front if he wins I'll give credit" then their criticism got more intense when those predictions were made to look beyond pathetic and more one-sided than even Loma's hardcore fans thought. How does that happen?

If Commey and the IBF belt is available then you do that otherwise if he fights Lopez then right after it these fans demanding Lopez gets his shot will say "He cherry picked a green fighter he's ducking Commey". I guarantee that would happen. 100%. If Garcia stays at 135 then that fight is #1 priority otherwise the WBC belt will be more worthy for now and also Berchelt is more worthy right now given he's #1 at 130 and more proven than Lopez. If Lopez had a belt then he could call whatever bluff he thinks they have but if he moves to 140 without the fight happening then it's highly su****ious and his motives were clear. There was never any talk of 140 until he mentioned Loma and then put an ultimatum on the pound for pound best whilst having zero credibility in the sport.

My take is that the people demanding the fight have either never seen Lopez or at best only saw and heard of him when he last fought and opened his mouth. In the minds of a sane boxing fan should Loma get credit for destroying him like he would? NO. He shouldn't and wouldn't but the people (fake) demanding the fight should be held accountable and would have to admit they were wrong on Lopez and Lomachenko or their credibility goes (even further) down. I think Loma would make him quit after winning every round (I could see Calzaghe-Lacy type action) and these people will fill the forum with hate, cries about Lopez being green, too young and Loma will be even less of a fighter in their eyes and they will say Haney is the next guy then it will be Garcia and then maybe back to Verdejo.

Your full of shet chris. l0m0 DIDN'T EARN A SHOT IN HIS 2ND FIGHT SO GIVE THE KID A SHOT. Its only fair l0m0 return the favor he got. And stop talking bout joke calslappy.

[j.razor]

Nahh **** all that, that paisa wants to talk and be all up on twitter like a batch he need that and Loma will gladly end his lil career in a brutal tactical beat down I want to see inflicted.

Good for you, these other l0m0 fans are shook! LOL

ON PAPER this match up seems interesting, same as with Loma vs Rigo. It's the same crap that we had when a fight with Rigo became talked about after Rigo and his followers kept running their mouths. Loma had no choice but to oblige and look how that turned out. Unlike Rigo though Lopez doesn't have the same amateur pedigree nor the boxing skills. Other than size and power Lopez will be easily neutralized by Loma after the first minute of the fight.

F#ck it, let the fight happen if that's what everyone wants. Just know that when the same results happen the same people that flocked with Teo will immediately turn their backs on him and spin it, claiming that he wasn't all that.

[Flo_Raiden]

Your scared he would touch l0m0 that's what it is.

LOL not at all. You saw how easily Loma neutralized sharp shooters like Rigo. Imagine what he'll do to Lopez. I know for a fact that Loma will be like a mongoose to Lopez.
