    id be the first to admit he hasnt done anything special....but what im saying is overall hes ahead of the curve for a guy his age......

    what had spence accomplished at his age? or crawford?

    davis is already making money comparible to loma....who was still fighting with headgear at tanks age

    tank has a belt...tanks supported a huge ppv..he headlines cards on showtime.....his resume isnt anything great or special....its ok...barely even good.....but his people have a plan...the people that are behind him have done big things in the sport and know how to get it done....

    stop being one of those guys that hate on everything the pbc or haymon does....take a look at it for what it is...the kid is 24....crawford never sold out his hometown at 24...he never headlined on hbo at 24....he was never main support for a ppv that sold over 2 million.....he makes money comparible to loma right now....hes doing ok....

    stop trying to compare a 24 year old to a 32 year old....as much as wed like to make all things equal and have everyone be the same we cant.....we cant compare canelos life to golovkins because they are at different stages...

    lomas resume is good...its not great...its good though...im not mad at him.....but davis and his people are in no rush to make that fight ....but what loma does is what a guy that started late should do with his pedigree.....stop holding a kid that turned pro at tanks age to a guy that stayed amatuer till 26....we cant make davis and loma equal in age or freeze time or whatever........davis is doing well for his age...and loma is a p4p guy thats doing well for himself....

      I don’t blame tank for going this route, but I’m not gonna celebrate it. It doesn’t matter how old he is...if they wanna promote him as one of the best in the sport, then he’s gotta step up and fight the fights. Like I said, is he gonna campaign at lw without fighting for any titles? Is he gonna face leftovers or nobodies on ppv? He can be built into as big of a “star” as they can make him, but if he isn’t fighting top competition, it’s all smoke and mirrors.

Let Ryan Garcia say something on twitter now, and Loma gonna be ducking every lightweight prospect.

          Age goes out the window once you fight for a world title. That's the problem with boxing now though, you have all these useless ABC titles, that you will have prospects win a ****ing title, then refuse to defend it because "he's just young" Davis, Munguia, there seems to be one in every weight class, and it's constantly defended due to their age. If you're not ready for world level, fight for regional titles. if you want a world title strap, it's time to fight the top guys.

            he's going to get a gimmie belt in his first fight (Vacant WBA 135 against Gamboa) then they're going to bill him as a world champion, fighting all the "top lightweights" while Lomachenko is ducking him.

                Wow! I've been trying to describe what Loma is and you hit the nail on the head. That's why they're always releasing videos of him doing what I can parlor tricks. Things you'd do in a bar to impress people. When he's in with an overmatched opponent he can perform those parlor tricks. But you didn't see them against Linares, Pedraza, or Campbell. Campbell ain't even that good

                  If he wins the interim title Loma is supposed to fight him. Loma decided to step in and grab the belt Haney was fighting a 4 man eliminator for. If he didn't want to defend the mandatory he should've let those guys fight for the belt & unified the right way

                      It was Lopez who backed out of the 4 man tournament though, not Loma.

                      The kid who’s trying to back out of his IBF title shot.
