    It's just Teos 12 rnd was superior to lomas 2nd.
    Possibly, but the 12th showed that if both open up, Loma is going to sleep

        Has anyone revisited the 12th? Lomachenko wasn’t in that much trouble. And obviously, pressure early, is not similar to trying to force a dramatic finish in the closing minutes. All Loma needs to do is start earlier. Lopez will tire. His offense/threat of countering is his defense.

          But it was Teo who got his head snapped back with his back against the ropes when it ended, lol. Forget it.

            was this after the ref gave Loma a breather during the onslaught?

              Lopez is a very basic fighter and he is not special. He does not have power. He does not have insane athleticism. He does not have any tricks. He is simply not a HOF talent.

              Yet he beat Lomachenko. he's 15-0 without the amateur pedigree. lol Loma fans are trying to big him up like some great fighter. no he isn't. Loma lost to a someone that would be called a scrub on Pac or Mayweather's resume.

              Loma is the most overrated fighter boxer on these forums for years.
              My exact thoughts. He got beat by a good fighter. Even after KO'ing Commey nobody ha Lopez close to their top 10 P4P

                It was after, but he was already cleared by then, which is why he was able to come out blazing. I don’t think Lopez landed a punch after the left hook. He threw a lot. Landed maybe one more punch (before the break.) That’s the punchers chance. Anyway. He wasn’t in that much trouble.

                And the point stands. Final rd. Lopez was emptying the gas tank and Lomachenko was trying to force a KO or KD atleast. I think Lomachenko showed he’s tough enough to take a good few from Lopez. Starting earlier only benefits Lomachenko imo.

                    bad night for loma fixed or not he is not in himself that night.. but i saw teo got exposed a little bit.. he's been hugging more often during the last couple of rounds and got hurt.

                    loma's plan didn't work.. that's a wasted opportunity.

                      Yeah he is solid. He reminds me of Danny Garcia. The main reason he beat Loma was size. Loma's hype at LW was a bunch of BS. He was just good, not special. He was special at 130. He made Gary Russell Jr. Look average at 126. Its ok of he moves back down. There's good fights there.

                      Lopez meanwhile I'm not sure how gold he really is. If he moves up to 140.he might just be a decent contender. I get the feeling Arum knows this deep down.
