but ill say this...back when most of the loma fans didnt think the fight was all that likely they were like "teo aint beaten nobody yet teo aint earned it...he better watch out or lomas gonna ruin his career...loma will beat him and ruin him"
now too spite tank davis theyre all talking about what big balls teo has......if loma spanks teo are they gonna say what a big mistake it was?
The same can hold true for Teofimo Lopez. If he loses but learns and improves then it's really a win for him.
Gervonta Davis could do the same. But instead he wants to "wait" and get soft due to fighting carefully picked opponents in the meantime. Guys that don't motivate him enough to actually train seriously.
He is never going to sharpen his blade that way.

so yeah....teo has alot more to gain and less to lose....
some of you just cant fathom that tank is doing things on his time....if loma beats teo 2021 is reasonable and acceptable for loma/tank....perfectly within reason.....yet some of you wanted him to fight loma 2 years ago and if he didnt hes some major poos/fraud in your eyes...lol.....you cant be honest...you hate him because of his affliation

The only minor setback was that one fight with the Japanese dude. Which he still won by wide margins on all the scorecards.
The point is he wants Lomachenko now at his best, like any real fighter should. He's not trying to wait him out like some suit in a boardroom scheming for the right opportunity.

I don’t want to hear how big of a “star” a guy is or how many tickets he sells etc when he’s not fighting anyone. Don’t try to spin this into some agenda driven hate...some of us just like to see talented fighters compete against the best, you know, what the sport is supposed to be about.
what you fail to acknowledge is that tanks career progression is no better or no worse than basically all but one of the top 20 p4p guys.....save for canelo....and of course teo taking on loma now would be huge....but thats exception...not the norm.....you people wilfully ignore that.....or start spouting "well when you hold a belt that all goes out the window"...but then another day will tell me that holding a belt doesnt mean alot and anyone can get one with money and connections.....wilfully ignoring loma getting a title shot in his 2nd fight through money and connections....
tank wants to make sure hes in the best possible position before he takes that fight....and theres nothing wrong with it....he turned 25 in november.....2021 is reasonable and acceptable on both sides....loma wont be too old...its just right...i dunno why some of you cant accept it all...its just everything out of your mouths is "tanks a poos tanks ducking tank dont wanna fight blah blah".....
try accepting reality....tank does headline...tank does sell tickets...he has more to lose...teo has everything to gain....so if teo wants it first let him go....thats fine...thats a great fight and matchup we all wanna see and i think the world of teo.....but bashing tank because he might want to wait till next year is just plain hating and not looking at the whole picture.....if loma wins in april and theyre both on track in 2021 and tank avoids it hard im down to hate on him and call him out for it....till then you should all stfu really

i was talking about the fight with the jap kid...which was right before commey....thats precisely the fight i was talking about.....
yeah he looked real good before that...and so has tank....tank won by a wide margin the other night too but didnt take the guy out when everyone thought he would...same with teo and the jap....that was my whole point
tank could look totally different next time out....so what?
are you gonna tell me loma is gonna be completely washed next year at age 32? lol....teo has nothing to lose.....thats great he wants the fight now..let him have it...tank will wait....someone has to dont they?

I just wish Gervonta's side had the balls to make that fight now rather than later. Like Teofimo Lopez does.
Pretty straight forward for any champ
Not all bad , Canelo improved as a boxer after loosing to Floyd
