    Can we stop trashing fighters for a min...

    Just for a day can we as fans stop trashing these fighters when they put their lives on the line for legacy, acclaim, risk an reward and etc.

    Too many reads I’ve seen someone calling Loma trash or that Teofimo got a gift!

    Just call it down the middle, Lopez won a very close fight and Loma started too late!

    There should be a rematch but it won’t and now let’s talk about Lopez vs Haney

    You said it the other day people are salty. There was no robbery I had it 116-112 maybe 115-113 Lopez showed true champion status in the 12th and Lomo just gave away too much in the first half.

      Most regular people aren’t trashing anyone...the people who rejoice so much in events that really have no bearing on them, have some screws loose. There’s no point appealing to the sensibilities of those type of people.

        Wasn't close though and the ref saved Loma in round 12.

          Good fight

          This was an excellent fight. First half except 2nd round was all Lopez and then Loma had big comeback in second half of fight but had a tough 12th round. Even when getting hit at end was still going forward trying to win.

          Judges cards being crazy notwithstanding Lopez deserved the win. I was rooting for Loma but he didn’t win. Started slow and looked rusty or that may have been Lopez just really doing well from big long or combination of both.

          It’s good we were two fighters that took a chance and fought someone the unsafe fight.

            I disagree, Loma’s rounds that he won were much stronger than the rounds Teofimo won!

            There was points in the fight where Loma was seemingly overwhelming Lopez but Teo smartly clinched him or pushed off!

            Lopez showed his mettle but also showed his weaknesses!

            Lopez vs Haney is the best next fight!

                Why even create this thread? you cant control what other people do so why even attempt to try to do so with something that is trivia that it doesn't even really matter? If you had the power to control what people do go take your powers to those who hurt kids etc etc surely trolling boxers and fans should be at the bottom of that list.

                  I don't know which kind of fan is worse, the casual or the fanboy

                  Casuals don't really know what they are looking at and fanboys are too damned emotional. Almost like a creepy, one way, long distance love affair is going on.

                    The first half of the fight was a shut out. 7 and 9 were close and 12 was Lopez. Only 3 clear rounds for Loma. 7 for Lopez. Not close.
