Comments Thread For: Lopez: I Expected More From Lomachenko; He Was Pretty Basic, Honestly

[Boxingfanatic75]

Loma was never hurt. He had Tep hurt bad tho in round 11

Ummmmm false. You never watched the fight.

Bare pathetic comments from Loma fans. He lost fair and square, and also fought a bit dirty. Accept it and move on. Hopefully Teo grants him a rematch. Only positive for Loma was, he looked the better inside fighter, which I found very surprising.

I think that this is a very derogatory comment to make about an opponent, however ordinary and "basic". I happened to mention a week or so ago, that the 14 month lay-off might have some effect on Lomachenko, but had not idea that it would. I believe it did.

One cant compare a 14 month layoff by a 32 year old who depends on his timing , agility and fast, onexpected footwork moves, to a 10 month hiatus by a 23 year old, who would just take it in his stride. Any 23 year old... Sneering at a beaten opponent is not what a real sportsman would ever do.

Weird because when Loma was Loma you looked completely lost and out of your baskets... Kudos on the "Unified" though...

When Loma was Loma..lol so now Loma can fight for 4 rounds and he still gets a pass from his fans?

You mean the dirty Loma in the second half, fighting out of desperation with rabbit punches, head butts, and foot steps?

I hear you but he is 23 years old and he has beaten the so called P4P no1. Everyone wrote him off and ridiculed his chances of victory including me. Personally for a unification fight he won pretty easily. If that was me I will be telling the world all Lomas 396 opponents I would beat them easily too. Was Loma a good sport too?Nobody cares when it’s all sad and done. Lopez gave him his respect and didn’t do a fortnite dance in his face, what more does he want?

Lomachenko was pretty basic in that fight. It was very disappointing. I had money on Loma as well.

Lopez impressed me. Calm under pressure when it mattered.

Lomachenko has been described as a Picasso in the ring but in this fight he waited till round 7 to get his paint brushes.

[Noelanthony]

he had the nose job hurt in the 9th, I would like to see a rematch. that was a draw.

Lol so Loma can give away 7 rounds and still lose the 12th and in your eyes it’s still a draw? Loma was hurt in the 12th also. I wanted Loma to win but what exactly did Lopez really do that the matrix couldn’t solve for 7 rounds? He punched Loma’s IQ to his legs. He has no one to blame but himself and his fans should stop whining.

I believe Lopez comes out of this fight even better. He had to learn some things in there against Lomo that he can take into future fights, not to mention confidence of beating the “supposedly” P4P former king.

It looked more like he was teaching Loma a lesson in American boxing style. He learned nothing himself, he dominated and imposed his style. Like Lederman, I've it 11-1 Lopez. I gave Loma round 11.

Lona is a skilled fighter. But he just hit a wall last night. I mean to be fair, it was apparent in the Linares fight that he didn't have the requisite size, skill, or power to go up and dominate at 135. Hes still a top 5 fighter. But he isn't nearly as untouchable as he was painted out as being.

People hate on me for saying this but it's easy to look skilled against fighters who are paid not to hurt you, I mean rigo and walters..not once hurt in the fight and all of a sudden 'no mas'

People need to stop being told who to follow and support, make up your own mind and don't let good promotion and sneaky match making tell you who you should 'fancy'

I mean we're talking about a guy here who has a 14-2 record.
