Nothing about Lomachenko’s 14 month layoff guys?

[Real King Kong]

Something definitely was off because he gave away the 1st 6 rounds.

I don’t think he realized how fast Teo would be and maybe because of the layoff it took him longer to get going.

I feel like he was bothered by speed and size of Lopez. Also Lopez wasn’t biting on his feints.

Thurman had a two year layoff and was not as timid as Loma was in the first half of the fight!

I really think Loma was afraid of Lopez. All that bs he talked about teaching him a lesson and hurting him, he was just trying ot hype himself up. He encountered a guy that wasn't afraid of him and threw punches back. He wasn't used to being stalked by a bigger guy that was just as fast as him and hit harder. He was afraid. His dumbazz fanbase are eating crow

Agreed. Lopez and his father had a great plan.

This part!

Agreed. Lopez and his father had a great plan.

and Loma's plan was to not throw punches for 6 rounds. He was seriously in there just to survive. and he was hurt bad in the 12th

Lomachenko was never the fighter he was hyped to be. He beat guys he was supposed to beat and lost to guys he was heavily favored over.

[Loque-san]

lol that's it?

Loma fought Rigondeaux who was:

a) 38-year-old or something
b) past his prime
c) a bantamweight (three weigh classes smaller than Loma)
d) very inactive - 3 rounds in 2 years! -

And people thought it meant Loma was better and gave him credit. Now imagine if this fight happens two years later, with probably a lesser version of Loma and a more seasoned Lopez...

I will never understand what he was doing rounds 1-6.

Those body shots must’ve really took something from him.

Nah. Loma's always been a slow starter.

To me, it looked like Loma waited for Lopez to tire himself out or frustrate himself into making mistakes. Which didn't happen until round 7. Which is where Loma turned it up.

Where Loma made a mistake - and Lopez's power may have been to blame - is that when Lopez was flat out tired in Round 11, Loma should and could have gotten him out of there.

Agreed. Lopez and his father had a great plan.

Loma really has a process of hand, body and foot feints that he uses to get reactions which allows him to get to positions ahead of his opponents. He was never really able to get that started so he was forced to take it to Lopez. It was an uncomfortable fight for him, but he showed heart and grit. He started too late tho.
