According to most ppl here Lopez is not on Lomas level nor ready....

When high skills are only tested against softies, they soon become unremarkable.

Right?

So if Loma beats him he shouldn’t get much credit right because according to most here lopez is too green not ready for Loma so it shouldn’t mean much correct?

And if Lopez beats him then Loma really looks like crap because he lost to a green Lopez who was never on his “level”.

You guys better stick to what your saying come the 17th.

I don’t wanna hear crazy praise for beating a guy Loma should have beaten easily all along.

Lopez is unproven and has zero wins over elite level.

I don't think Loma is even close to being the best fighter in the world (highly subjective). For those who do, will a Lopez win crown Lopez the same? Not a chance. He can lose his next fight to a bum.

Personally, if I were talking to Lopez after this win, I'd say: "Cong****, a good start, but I need to see a lot more." Loma isn't a be-all. He should top Salido and KO this guy.

Well, there are many detractors like me who really haven't gotten the memo on Loma's 'greatness,' who think he had some careful matching at TR, along with some corrupt positioning with the crooked belt organizations. Which great fighter has he beaten?

Loma is a good fighter like Lopez is a good fighter. Nothing beyond that.

I pick Lopez by KO within 8 rounds.

Lopez is universally recognized as #2 135.

Lopez May be green but far from a bum and a very live dog.

He’s ready for the fight and if you are a world champion, then you have to be ready to fight the best or you shouldn’t be fighting for world titles.

That’s why I like Lopez. He’s not looking to take any soft touches now he has a belt. He’s been chasing this fight.

Whether he’s good enough or not is another question, but that doesn’t mean he’s not ready to try.

Yeah there's a lot of people acting like Lopez doesn't have even a 1% chance to win this fight which can only mean they think Lopez is no good. When he knocks Lomas head off they'll have to say Loma got beat up by a bum.

Nah. Honestly, I like the ones who say it's fifty-fifty or close. They are looking beyond the fanboy in them. They are the honest ones.

Lopez brings a different style and attributes than what Loma is used to, as well as a killer instinct and a strong desire to win.

[BodyBagz]

Same double standards with Wilder. Pure bum until a fan favorite beats him. Then said bum's status is elevated to ATGness

If Lopez wins then it means he is awesome and people can no longer deny it. It’s as simple is that.

Thank you. End the thread here, instead of targeting what Loma is or not is. Praise goes to Lopez simple.

Before the Commey fight I wanted Lopez to get that belt, because that would validate a Loma win over him, he went out there and did what he said he would do.

That for me validate Lomachenko as he have become undisputed on record with a win over Lopez. Collecting all the belt in one division.

No one is going to try and take away either boxers victory in two weeks time.

Thats right Kid,
After Loma destroys this kid he wont get recognition besides earning another belt.
I do not see Lopez do anything after this fight esp. when he goes to 140.
The only reason for this fight is No.1 to get the last remaining belt and No.2 Teo has been bad mouthing Loma for a cpl of years now so now that He has a belt Loma has an excuse to knock this guy out.
