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

[DumpkinsPlus5]

The most surprising thing was Loma's inability to adjust. When "Be patient. Just be patient. He get tired, we drown him" didn't work, Loma had no answer. Loma's good at attacking a wounded animal. Teo was in shape and never exhausted enough to be pity patted to death. Loma did the same thing he always does when he goes on the attack. Throw the jab, straight, jab with the occasional body shot. He don't know how to work a hook upstairs into his combos?

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

Why did Loma choose to stop being Loma in the 12?

The people's are still stunned! Especially the fans of Loma who's talk so weird and ****** thing.

Lopez finished that fight like a true champ in the final round, he hurt Loma. Teo deserve all credit and respect for that tremendous victory.

damn!

low blow

I disagree, Lopez learned tough gamesmanship from his pops but Loma was definitely rattling off flush combos to the head an snapped Lopez’s head back!

Lopez needs to work on his defense late in fights cuz even Nakatani was landing on him late too, at 140
Those guys will hit just as hard if not harder!

14 month layoff for Loma plus the size of Lopez. Of course Loma wasn’t gonna look like Loma. Cong**** to Lopez tho. I thought he looked a little lost and tired in the 11th but came out really strong in the last round. Wide score from the chic judge was crazy. I wonder which round she had for Loma

It felt very Fury vs Klitschko like to me. Teo & Fury were so effective at making their more distinguished & experienced opponent look inefficient that it took the fight away from them in a way we've never seen before. In fairness to Loma he eventually made a more serious attempt at turning things around than Wlad did, but still giving up those first 6 rounds put him in the situation of a best case scenario of a draw.

He fought like a stiff, euro bum

It's because some fans and some media see a fighter show a bit of fast hands and moves against ok competition, next thing they are calling him the next best thing since sliced bread. Fact of the matter is Loma was and is a talented fighter but was never at the level that they wanted it to seem, he never fought extremely great competition, fought some good fighters not the cream of the crop. He never avenged the loss to Salido, so I tend to believe Lopez, and how can you argue, he beat him soundly.

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