    Q: who else should he be fighting ?

    Campbell is the No.2 Ring rated guy (Commey No.1), he got a gold at the Olympics, and took Linares to the trenches (who took Loma to the trenches), so why so dismissive of Campbell ? Loma wants to unify 135, and Campbell is in the way, I don't understand what else you expect Loma to do.

    (1) Tank won't fight him, Mayweather came straight out and said that the big fights for Tank can be later on. What do you expect Loma to do about Tank exactly ? How could he make that fight all by himself ?

    (2) Campbell/Commey - which one first doesn't really matter, but timing seems good if Loma can get Campbell now, as TR has co-promotional with Commey so should be the easier one to make - so take the harder one to arrange first if it can be made right ?

    (3) Mikey - that ships sailed to 147.

    (4) Berchelt - he's at 130 right now, and Loma is trying to unify 135 where Berchelt doesn't have a belt. Loma already said he would consider going to 130 after unifying at 135 if the fights are there, but he's on a mission at 135 right now. Unification is legacy.

    (5) Teo - Teo doesn't have a belt and has self-admitted weight problems at 135. Why would Loma opt for a 21 year-old noob with weight issues over the legacy of unification ?

    (6) going to 140 ? - business at 135, and I'm not sure his father (who calls the shots) would even let him go there while he remains small at 135 (he's already basically a 130 boxer fighting at the next weight class up).

    ok, lets play a game, if you are Loma's promoter ,what would your advice to him be ?

    Loma beats all te guys you mentioned, I understand he has to stay active. You presented a formidable argument, this I like. If I was his promoter, I would either get Easter, Gary Russell rematch, or if that little herb Teo wants it he should give it to him..Tank has been missing without action..he is currently under bum status.

      He's fighting Campbell for the WBC belt and gets flack here, imagine him fighting Easter or Russell again. I imagine he wants Commey after Campbell then he's undisputed, then he can do whatever makes the most money, Mikey/Tank/Teo if any of them step up.

          Floyd announced the Loma vs Davis fight in 2019 last year live on Showtime!

          What happened?

          Floyd announced himself VS Manny in 2019 live at some concert in Japan last year.

          What happened? Manny retired Oscar, Mathysse, and now Floyd!

            Russell is two divisions below. You want to wake Rigo fight critics? They've become quite for a while. Don't make hateress of Loma easier

              It's an OK fight. I'll watch it to see how Loma's doing from his injuries. I want him to be 100% for Davis when the fight happens next year.

              What interests me about Campbell is his southpaw style, something Loma had big issues with against Pedraza, if you know what you are watching. I don't think he's that comfortable against southpaws. Not saying he can't beat a subpar southpaw like Campbell.

              Truth be told, Campbell is a Linares leftover, like Crolla was. Some say Loma's going on Linares' leftover tour. Well, that's not how boxing works. Everyone's someone else leftover.

              I wanna see how Loma handles the southpaw style again, before squaring off against a highly skilled, powerful southpaw, with bombs in both fists, like Gervonta Davis.

              Loma was uncomfortable and clueless everytime Pedraza turned southpaw.

                Loma dominated 11 of 12 rounds while only throwing punches with one arm.

                Rigo and Russel Jr are also southpaws. Loma dominated both.

                So where are the challenges? The one round against Pedraza?

                  Keep watching, bro. Campbell is a semi-can but he's a real southpaw and strong. He has some skills too.

                  Rigo is an ancient and Russell too.

                    Russell Jr. fought Loma two weeks after he turned 24. In what world is that ancient?

                      I meant now he's ancient, with his inactivity and all. Those were small guys, too, not like what's in store for him against Davis.

                      How do you see it going, Rexy? I mean Loma-Campbell.
