Comments Thread For: Lopez To Loma: Don't Back The F--k Out; Everybody Wants To See This Fight

[emceetns]

Teofimo Lopez isn't convinced Vasiliy Lomachenko is firmly committed to fighting him next. Promoter Bob Arum planned to put on the Lomachenko-Lopez fight May 30 at Madison Square Garden in New York. Their lightweight title unification fight hadn't been announced prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, though.

Hopefully Teo keeps that same energy if and when he gets an offer to take the fight without fans present.

I certainly don't condone hate crimes against Chinese-Americans, bro.

But China is where this mess came from and who needs to be held responsible. We should never forget.

Instead of attacking little kids these idiots need to be pressuring their politicians to get in China's ass and make them pay. Whether that be with Chinese government funds or with Chinese property or businesses that can be confiscated here in the United States.

Unfortunately this country is too beholden to China in many ways. Whether it’s manufacturing suppliers or investments in terms of federal bonds or commercial property. The trade deficit is much to one sided. What absolutely NEEDS to be done is enforcing more stringent protocols for livestock handling. Much of the communicable diseases in the respiratory virus “family” arise from improper storage and handling of animals. Corporations were much too myopic when looking at the bottom line by sourcing processes overseas, it will take a paradigm shift in how businesses conduct themselves for the US to mitigate these financial risks, that starts with mentality shifts in shareholders when it comes to publicly traded companies.

Teofimo’s statement about Loma asking for a tune up a week or two ago was unfounded, and doesn’t seem to be corroborated by insiders. Seems like he’s not going to be able to make 135 and already left the tracks to exit the division “gracefully”

SARS-CoV-2 is only known as the “China Virus” to ignorant bigoted individuals.

Absolutely agree.

The correct name is Wuhan Virus.

Viruses historically have been named according to (A) the first person who caught it (which we don't know), (B) the first person who detected it (which we don't know) or (C) the precise location of origin (which we do know).

Thus why rubella's unofficial name is German measles, because that's the precise location it was detected. Didn't see any Germans up in arms about that.

How is it Lomas problem you cant make weight? Is is his fault you drain yourself and not fight in the correct weight class?

German chemists and physicians were the ones to initially observe the presentation, logically confined within Germany. It was actually an Englishman who coined the now commonly accepted nomenclature as rubella.

I’m assuming Germans weren’t up in arms because, the majority of people comprising the country are of Germanic descent... I’m not sure what your point is

Love it. Teo is the man who won't fight in an empty arena and suddenly he says he will fight Devon or Garcia if Loma can't fly in. So, he"ll fight these guys in an empty stadium? He is two faced and full of ****. Loma wants a tuneup, last week, uncorroborated. This week Loma would fight him if he could fly in. Lopez is about as psychotic as his crazy ass father. Can't keep his stories straight and makes up ****. Said he made an offer to Devon. Hearns asked, when because he didn't get it. If it were true Haney would be over it.

Lomachenko would never back out as long as Lopez is holding his belt. Loma has been very clear about his intentions to unify at LW. I can’t wait to hear the excuse train roll the second Lopez loses. I’d bet every dollar I have the first thing out of his mouth after he loses will be something about cutting weight drained him too much after spending months talking about how him being the bigger, stronger fighter is an advantage over Lomachenko.

hes already making i cant weight excuses

This is the sad trend I see with a lot of younger fighters. They drain themselves sometimes 2 weight classes lower just so they can come in heavier on fight night and bully their opponent.

This is not Loma's fault one bit. If Lopez cannot make weight then he needs to stop running his mouth and start running them legs.
