    Yeah he beat him I'm not dis*****g it. I'm just pointing out why I think he won. . The state commissions should do something serious about referring like this. Hate to see a fight spoiled because the referee didn't do his job. That goes for all fights not just this one.

      You're trying to excuse why he got beat but the reason is simple...he was not ready for someone like Salido.

        Because it came across my feed and I've never seen it before. Why are you even commenting if you have a problem with it?

          and after that interview Spence got a call that his new eyeglasses are already waiting for him at the pharmacy.

            Nobody cares about Loma beating up teenagers. The amatuer record **** is some new **** people started using when the Eastern European came along. I guarantee you can't name the amatuer record of any of your favorite fighters from the 00's and back.

              This is basically my point. You can't say Loma is a good fighter. If you say that you're a hater. You have to claim he's the greatest fighter ever.

              I've always said Loma is a good fighter but he's nothing we haven't seen before. We've seen better over the past decade.

                Obvious racial bias being displayed by Errol. Par for the course.

                  Lol I have to agree on this, a lot of guys on here won’t accept any criticism of Lomachenko and will regard said criticism as being racially fuelled. I think he’s the best in the sport along with Crawford (slight edge to Loma for me) but he’s not some deity that is otherworldly but a damn good fighter he is for sure.

                  He’s not untouchable, Tank will trouble him quite a bit if that fight happens. I just fear that if the fight happens in the next year or 2 and if Tank is competitive or even wins then it will be dismissed as Loma being over the hill.

                    Move up to 154 unify and then move up to 160 and unify since you walk around at 170 lbs. Then compare yourself to lomo.
