    Lomachenko's come back

    As with all great fighters, they can lose and they must come back. If Lomachenko wants to be great, this is what he has to do. A bit curious why he didnt talk of a rematch instantly, heck look at how WHyte recently handled his defeat.

    I know Lopez afterward stated that there was no rematch clause but there doesnt have to be, this is now the biggest money fight in the division. That should be LOma's goal, if no immediate rematch then he isn't willing to risk everything for greatness.

    What say you?

    It's not up to Lomachenko if he gets the rematch or not. Lopez will have to give him a rematch and I don't see it happening. The kid is going to move up to 140 either in his next fight or the following fight and Lomachenko likely moves down to 130.

    Lomachenko can prove his greatness at 130 fighting some more young studs like Stevenson or a proven champ in Berchelt.

      He cant win a rematch Teo is too big and strong for Loma so there is no point in a rematch just another loss, he has to move down to 130 he is not big enough and has not enough pop at 135.

            He needs to revisit 130 imo. There are plenty of great fights to be made. Betcha Lopez moves to 140 asap.

                Lopez can run like a thief with this win and go to 140, but it will taint his legacy if he doesn’t offer a rematch. A rematch would be lucrative and if he wins he removes all doubt. There isn’t a bigger payday waiting for him at 140. He will end up regretting his refusal to rematch much like Canelo is now with GGG. He played hard to get and now DAZN can’t pay him is $36+ per fight because no one cares about Canelo fighting scrubs at 160/8.

                  130 is where Lomachenko needs to go. Don't get me wrong, wouldn't mind one bit if he fights Haney or Garcia if he gets past Campbell, but there are more than enough challengers at 130. If he feels more comfortable at that weight class, then that's were he deserves to finish his career at.

                    130 he had a decent little run going up in weight his skills helped him bridge the gap but he hit a wall

                    time to go back down and find a good challenge
