All these fights make tank Davis look very good and a killer and they make lomachenko look average

Ummm Stank caught Pedraza with a lucky punch, i do agree, that he was beating him. Loma schooled Pedraza in his OWN weight division (with post surgery elbow)... Thats the difference

[angkag]

Pedraza comfortable at 135 and talking 140, I believe him when he says he was drained at 130 for Tank.

Loma remains small at 135, and if we care to remember, was coming off that shoulder surgery.

To compare Tank vs a 130 Pedraza to Loma vs 135 Pedraza misses a few important details in my book. A fully healthy Loma at 130 (his more natural weight) would have cleaned a drained Pedrazas clock at that weight like Tank did - how would a 135 Tank do vs a 135 Pedraza ? There's the better question

Pedraza looked more like he was sparring and trying different stuff out for most of this fight, not really sitting down on his punches until late - a good workout for him. If other fighters need to be named, its Verdejo...

The truest post here. Gervonta dealt dismissively with Pedraza en route to a vicious KO.

You guys are exposing yourselves as either casual boxing fans or fans who forgot what actually happened in the Tank Davis vs Pedraza fight.

Loma's performance vs Pedraza, despite still not being 100% physically, was much more impressive than Tank's. Both Loma and Tank got Pedraza to the same exact spot in the fight. Once that happened, Pedraza was saved by the bell vs Loma, whereas vs Tank, the ref stopped it, but it was the same exact situation for Pedraza. The only difference, the ONLY thing Tank did better than Loma, is that Tank got him there in 7 rounds, while it took Loma 11.

That's the one thing Tank did better. The only thing. And when you understand that Pedraza came to fight Tank, and tried to be a pressure fighter, whereas vs Loma he boxed to his strengths, then even that is not really more impressive than Loma. Getting a mover that hurt in 11 rounds is actually more impressive than getting a mover trying to box like a pressure fighter hurt in 7 rounds.

Then you add in that Tank was healthy, Loma was not. Then you add in that Pedraza was an unhealthy 130 pounder, while Loma beat the best version at 135. Then you add in Loma got hit way less than Tank. Then you add in that Pedraza laughed when a reporter asked him who was better, Loma or Tank, and said Loma without a second thought. Then you add in that all of Pedraza's best performances besides I guess Farmer (who is overrated) have come at 135, vs Beltran, Loma, and Lozada.

All these things are hints to a hardcore boxing fan that Loma's performance was much more impressive, and that Loma is a much better boxer than Tank. If the opposite were true, than Al would make Loma-Tank and let Tank beat Loma and make a ton of money, but Al is a hardcore boxing guy, and he probably employs pro matchmakers who tell him how fights will go, so just because you guys think Tank is better doesn't change the reality that Al knows otherwise and that's why he refuses to make the fight.

What a ******ed comment. How does Pedraza beating guys make Lomachenko look bad? Did you forget that Loma kicked his ass as well?

He ain't no verdujo!!!😠

Pedraza drew a masterpiece in there last night. I was blown away by his fluidity and changing styles mid round. He went from sniping away with counters on the backfoot, to toe to toe slugger who's accuracy was unmatched by his counterpart, then punching in between his enemies wild combos. Timing, accurate and sizzling combinations. He was focused, stood in front of Lozada while he was unloading and managed to slip the flurries and respond beautifully.

What a great showing. Pedraza shows glimpses of greatness when he is on point.

Pedraza showed a lot of wrinkles. Very entertaining fight. Lozada never stopped coming.

Nah I'm on this site all the time and I've never ever seen anybody pretend Pedraza won that fight (and I hope I never will). Lomachenko dominated Pedraza
