Comments Thread For: Lomachenko: Lopez Jr. Is Excellent Puncher, Has High Boxing IQ

[PRchamp]

I love Colombian food and I'm Puerto Rican/Cuban.

Fire as well. Nothing beats una bandeja paisa or mojarra Frita with coconut rice when eating Colombia.

Cuba my abuela could cook any dish on Cuban cuisine menu. Puerto Rican food to me is good not great my honest opinion haha

I am looking forward to see how Teo will deal with Loma's footwork, how he strikes from different angles, and how he brings Lopez into deep water as the fight goes the distance. Can't wait!

damn that's messed up.



Want to know what's underrated ? Peruvian food.


Ceviche I'm not a fan. I don't like sea food.


Lomo Saltado

[Rusty Tromboni]

I agree. There's a lot of promise to this kid. Even if he gets owned and slaughtered by Lomachenko, as long as he can get himself back on the saddle, he should have have an exceptionally successful career.

My girl is Peruvian and hands down they have to be on the pound for pound list of gastronomy. Seafood is my favorite but they have so many dishes as well that are amazing.

Lomo salteado never fails. I introduced my co-workers and friends to their dishes and they eat it almost every day haha

Honestly I do not understand the level of hate and vitriol Lopez has for Vasyl. He says he genuinely dislikes and hates the man yet Vasyl has never done anything negative directed at him. Lopez is proof that hate is not born into it is breed. Hatred does not know how to be humble. By the end of the fight Lopez will be a millenial crying for his participation trophy.

this is what happens when people take everything a little too seriously

lopez knows that talking this fight up and winning it is his ticket to a higher level.....take a look at gervonta davis....kid is 25 and about to headline his own ppv..hes been chief support to a floyd ppv and has sold 12k in tickets in multiple cities already......teo wants to be there...teo wants that.......without this fight its a much slower road to that and maybe never even getting it....heck loma is 32 and hasnt done a ppv yet......teo doesnt want to wait or want a slow route....he believes in himself......i believe he genuinely knows, and respects, what loma is

i dont know where youre from or whether or not you follow the sports of baseball...but let me share a story...cc sabathia pitched for the yankees...the red sox have long been heated/hated rivals...the heat of the rivalry has died down over the last couple of years to a degree....sabathia had a disdain for a red sox player named jackie bradley....well sabathia just retired and they had him on a podcast and asked him what his "beef" with bradley was....his answer? i didnt have one...i just made it up for competitive reasons to keep my "edge"...he said he was friendly with more red sox players than he wanted to be so he needed someone to hate to maintain his edge

Good response. There are far better ways to hype up your career than just randomly trash talking some guy who you have never met. I know Jordan used to make things up just to psyche himself to generate that hunger and drive. But he never went out of his way to just trash his opponents family.

I do not mind trash talking like how Gary Peyton used to do it. What I find useless is when you make it personal for no apparent reason and attack someone's family etc.

Lopez is gonna feint Loma into a game of freeze tag and once Loma gets caught into it then the matrix will get deleted by a virus like right hand from Lopez!

Lopez by KO in 10

Hard to predict how Lopez style will match with Loma's.

Lopez has been fighting flat footed one/two type of guys in Commey/Magdaleno or that japanese guy.

We have never seen him against a boxer, let alone a boxer like Loma.

The kid look like a beast but Loma's style, with his angles, pressure, feints, southpaw stance can be tricky sometimes.
Some fighters looked like **** versus Loma due to his weird boxing style.

Style make fights, and I haven't seen enough of Teo to know how they will match.
Sure Teo has serious power, but he ain't no Floyd Mayweather.

[TheReadyTimeBoy]

It's gonna come down to Lopez's power. If Loma can handle it then he wins this fight comfortably. If it bothers him then we get into far more interesting territory.

I don't think its random trash talk, I think its intentional and believable in some respects (not that I agree). I didn't hear anything about Lomas family (his dad is his trainer so he is fair game).
