Why is everyone saying lomo getting surgery is an excuse?

[boogbx]

Loma was the one who said he would punish Lopez. Loma was the one who said he was the best and Loma said he was 100%.

Loma is also the one who was upset and he is the only man to blame
For starting late.

That said I’m still a huge fan and would Love To see him
Down at 130 against the best. Berchelt and Stevenson are top rank fighters, make it happen Arum!

Throw him to the sharks for real, sink or swim.

I’d favor Loma over Stevenson but not Berchelt. I believe Berchelt is the best at 130.

Try fighting with a bum shoulder . Can a running back perform his 100% with a bum knee just use common sense

[QueensburyRules]

How is one magnanimous in defeat when he leaves the ring and doesn’t congratulate his opponent?

To be fair, a number of fighters, Including Lopez, none of who have an “agenda” against him, talked about he shouldn’t make excuses.

- -Recall Lopez going over to his corner post fight.

Repetition not needed.

[BodyBagz]

It's a fact he got shoulder surgery after the fight. He never once said that was an excuse for his loss. Yet, i see many saying he's making excuses because he got shoulder surgery. Did he fake the shoulder surgery?

There were no signs of an injury that required surgery anywhere in that fight.

Athletes who engage in contact sports are rarely 100 % or stay 100% throughout.

I think he beats Berchelt and Stevenson. Steven didn’t have power at fw so why would he have power moving up?

Loma don’t like it downstairs at all, showed that much against Salido and Lopez.

Berchelt is all relentless body attack.

Berchelt bullies Loma decisively.

just some statements made by team lomachenko after announcing the shoulder to the public.


“We lost one week of training. We lost one week of sparring because the doctor forbid him to do much for a week after the injection,”

Anatoly, “Wanted out of the fight,” Klimas said. “We didn’t want to look like we were looking for excuses or something.”

"that an MRI didn't reveal a significant injury to the shoulder"

Those statements coming from Loma's manager after the fight makes it seem like they're making excuses. Loma even listed past injuries/problems he had for other fights and implied that he no longer has these issues so we should see him fully fit against Lopez.....this was during that espn build up show (whatever it was called).

Now they're saying he had a shoulder injury and missed a week of sparring and a week of training? You come up with that type of stuff after losing clearly, it looks like an excuse.

[Ca$ual Fan]

In general I don't do excuses. You got time to pull out of the fight if there's a problem, it's a nightmare to do it but it's a nightmare to lose. You step through those ropes then you are saying you are good to go.

Ppl on here got a serious problem with certain fighters, I'm not pointing any fingers here but all the hate seems to be coming from 1 particular direction. Oh fkk it I am pointing fingers, it's Americans, some Americans hate to see none Americans do well and will throw shade on anything deemed great that isn't American.

Lol you’re being too particular. Cmon bruh, you’re 1 step away from getting to the red alert zone. Careful there

[HewJohnson]

Loma was in sore loser mode as soon as the decision was announced, the shoulder excuse was a way for him to murky up a one sided ass whooping

He might not have verbally said it but, I kind of feel like he’s subliminally trying to put his shoulder surgery out there as an excuse...he did have a bs attitude after he lost.
