    All signs show that Loma wil embarass Lopez and stop him. I think Loma's on a mission to stop Lopez (jdeally make him quit). It's Commey's blowout that makes people talk up Lopez. You are as good as your last fight, and people naturally overrate punchers.
    I had similar thoughts. Nobody brings up Walters and Loma put him in retirement. Walters was the boogey man of the division and had a huge reach advantage over Loma. Walters could hit hard and Loma stood in front of him begging Walters to throw.

      When Loma takes it personal and has something to prove to himself things become interesting. I expect Loma to display the best defense to date with Lopez landing 5-10% of his shots. Loma will use his footwork to run circles around Lopez keeping him guessing and eventually frustrating him. Lopez will gas out and Loma will start to really punish him. Lopez either gets knocked out or quits. He ends up crying and his dad is raging in the corner trying to fight Loma and his father. Loma will be like Volg and the true beast will be unleashed in the ring and afterwards he will look at Lopez with pity.

        Literally you can see the influx of alts rolling around this forum right now just to push their agenda.

        Like ****. If you need to pretend to be someone else just to get your point across then you're already in the wrong.

        But thats my problem. These guys don't care about being wrong, they only care about be right when they can. Sucks to be me thinking that people have humanity when in reality they're straight up pieces of **** who use this forum as their safe space! And no! I dont feel bad for saying that because its the truth.

        How many people "rooting" for Lopez has actually given a sufficient boxing response? NONE.

        They all just want Teofimo to win because they're the same color. Or they want him to win because they hate Lomachenko. Or they want him to win because then they can brag about their guy.

        How many of these dudes have even watched ONE of Lopezs fight? I probably couldn't even count on one hand.

          Tyson Fury, Canelo, Crawford, Golovkin, Bieterbiev, Gervonta Davis, Lopez, Spence, Usyk, Wilder (not technically, Obviously) Joshua, probably a few more but I can't be bothered to look it up. I'll change my mind if he beats Lopez and put him into the top 5.

          I've got £300 on Lopez winning at 3-1, so I have some confidence in it happening. I think Linares showed weaknesses in Loma's game, they were neck and and neck for skill, and Linares is only a moderate puncher and he completely flattened Loma.

            Agreed 95%. How is Canelo a hype job? He’s been picking up steam since his first real fight (against Floyd). He got beat by GGG and arguably lost to Lara but he’s stayed on track all the way to the dismantling of Kovalev.
            I am not the biggest fan but I recognize that he’s got plenty of skills and still has time to make up for the hype that he was before he got beat by Floyd.
            Overhyped because hes not as great as people make him out to be. Hes a very good fighter and a great talent but I digress.

            In near all of his toughest fights he's never truly been able to win convincingly despite all the skills he showcases.

            Compare to guys I would consider higher p4p Lomachenko/Inoue.

            Both these guys are head and shoulders above the guys they've previously fought and dont need shady score cards to make their fights competitive.

            For example does Canelo get KOs or win wide decisions against top talent in his weight classes? Is he fighting the best available guys?

            The answer to both of those are no.

            Canelo has a very good resume but just like Floyd its more hype than truth.

              Yes. It's a garbage undercard as you would expect.


              Lomachenko vs. Lopez - More Undercard Bouts Announced
              The breakout star of the Bubble, “Cassius” Clay Collard, is back for more. Collard, the MMA pro-turned contender for 2020 “Boxing Prospect of the Year,” will fight Quincy LaVallais in an eight-round middleweight bout on the Vasiliy Lomachenko-Teofimo Lopez undercard on Saturday, Oct. 17 from the MGM Grand Las Vegas Conference Center. It is a rematch of their June 2019 fight, which was ruled a draw.

                      And also he didn't even attempt to make weight and blew up four weight divisions over night.
