Comments Thread For: Lomachenko Warns That He'll Punish Teofimo Lopez For Big Talk

[j.razor]

Dude. We all know you're a Lomachenko hater through and through. Let's not lie to ourselves.

Lomachenko got a lot of hate because he was catapulted into P4P list after just 11 fights. Your point is literally why he gets hate and probably one of the reasons you hate him.

The other point above though is that hes P4P higher on a lot of peoples lists because he, unlike Canelo, has absolutely dominated nearly every single champion and fight he has been in as a pro.

He just has what 14 fights and literally 13 of them were world championship fights. Take a look at MIKEY Garcia's resume. Over 2/3 of it is padded absolute garbage. Lomachenko didnt pad his record like these other guys and a lot of people had him in their top 10??

Look at Canelo. While the guy is great what has he done to exactly separate himself from the pack? More than a few questionable decisions? More than a few questionable score cards?

I'd like you to count the number of rounds Lomachenko has lost as a pro and hopefully that makes sense to you

Let's just take his last couple fights.

Crolla 3/3 - Weak opponent
Pedraza 11/12 - struggled
Linares 6/10 - Got put on his ass
Rigo 6/6 - Afraid of the weight so had to move him up 2 divisions
Marriaga 7/7 - Weak
Sosa 9/9 - Weak
Walters 7/7 - Was on retirement

Do we need to continue? Lomachenko dominates his competition.

Nelo has a better resume & lost only to The Best Fighter Ever which is no shame cuz l0m0 would of been stopped by T.B.E.

You forgot about Gary Russell which I think is l0m0's best win but Gary hasn't done much in the game either.

Floyd was a defensive counter puncher. Loma is a defensive and offensive tactician. Eyes don't lie. 1 for Loma.

That's not what showed in a few fights with l0m0 like the Salido & Pedraza fight. You must be legally blind. 1 for Nelo.

“They are businessmen, they are not athletes,”

Sorry dude! He was talking about both Floyd and Tank! Maybe he should bring an interpreter next time! I think you don't want to accept what he's saying! He's basically saying the same thing that GGG said about Canelo! This "I'm not businessman," BS is getting old!

there's nothing insulting that was said by lomachenko! Stop being a fragile little snowflake! Loma spoke the truth. ellerbe and gayweather jr have come out and said they want to make stank davis into a ppv star which is hilarious since davis won't fight anybody who has a pulse how will he be ppv fighter? Also ppv is dying.

Retirement while undefeated ?

He was retiring to his private island ?

To Jamaica.

Your just a PBC racist shill.
Your just a joke.

So I'm "racist" cuz I support winners? You dumb ass shet.

[j.razor]

It’s not dumb we just disagree. Floyd is for me second most technical boxer of this generation right now, and he is P4P above Loma in ranking on my overall list because of he had more power until he was unable to deliver it with his fragile hands.

But I believe Crawford will prove himself to be a step up as an all rounder before he retires because even Floyd couldn’t switch hit the way he can.

Stop it. T.B.E. for a reason.

Not sure I understand your comment...if you're asking why Lomachenko is higher up most p4p lists I'd say it's because of what he's achieved in such a short time period...can't speak for other people but I'd say it's a combination of that and the fact that (warranted or not) there's been quite a bit of controversy around some of Canelo's biggest fights. If you reckon it's because Canelo is Mexican, I think that's your own issue, besides look at Canelo he's as Irish as I am

Anyone of the top fighters of yesterday & today could of done what l0m0 did with the same chances & opposition l0m0 was givin' & no not cuz Nelo is Mexican. He does look irish too but Nelo has fought tougher fighters than l0m0 has.

[j.razor]

If Loma is ducking someone which only 10% of fans believe he can win, you think it's a big deal?

See how your logic breaks apart?

No it doesn't cuz 10% of the people think Teo would win (which the poster was trying to act like EVERYONE saying Teo would win) but there are no fights for l0m0 & the kid is there calling him out under the same promotion so what in the world would l0m0 not fight him for, cuz he doesn't have a belt?? But meanwhile he's fighting lesser competition as he did in his last fight..lol

See how your trying to break common sense apart?

Fair enough, think we'll have to agree to disagree on that. While past boxers may have been able to do what loma has done, I don't think many would have been able to do it in the way Lomachenko did, i.e so emphatically.
You've pointed out the main issue I have with the whole p4p concept, and that is that there are differences in quality across the different weights. That's why I don't put much stock in the whole p4p conversation. That said, when I do think about p4p I don't base it on who a boxer has fought, I look at how he's gone about his business in the ring and try to compare how he would do against any other boxer if they were fighting at the same weight. All things considered I don't think anyone would best Lomachenko at the moment with all things like weight being equal, and when you consider the related changes in power etc that comes with a levelling off of the weight issue.
Saying that though, you could argue that if the weight applied for p4p was middle weight Lomachenko would suffer from the loss of speed that he relies on so you'd have to favor canelo in that scenario...
See this is why I don't get into the whole p4p thing, it's such a mind f**k when you start to go down the rabbit hole, lol.
What I would say though is that, having boxed since I was 8 and being at a decent level within the Irish Amateur set up for the next 14 years, all things being equal I'd rather get in the ring with canelo than Lomachenko, as I believe I'd receive a more embarrassing beat down from Lomachenko...that's how I tend to rate boxers when talking p4p..hope this makes sense if you haven't fallen asleep reading this epic

You were trying to refute when he said Loma should be given CREDIT should he beat Teo. A huge credit for beating a huge talker and a huge hypejob. Then you suddenly went to 'only 10% of the fans believe he can win'. If you follow logic, I think we know where this is going should Loma fight and beat him. He's not gonna get credit, he's gonna be criticized more.

I'm seeing 2 standards in here
