Would Lomachenko do better in a rematch vs TEO?

[Santa_]

Why are people acting like this was a close fight! LMAO. Julie Lederman had it about right. Loma made it competitive between R8-11, the rest was one-sided. It's a fight I could never rewatch because it was just not competitive.

Oh c'mon that was a clear 6-4 fight. The Loma team can work on a coupe things and win the rematch IMO.

Only if his shoulder if fully healed and he fights for 12 rounds.

I think he def could and I would actually favor him. He's going to pick up the gas from round 1 and either win a dominant decision or get KTFO. It's a rather intriguing rematch.

[STREET CLEANER]

When Loma was on he clearly won those rounds. He would have to start earlier but that will mean that he will get hit good also. The last round of the fight was very telling it what is going to happen if he engages early and often.

Lomachenko stops Teo or wins a UD but ill Teo wants the rematch by the sound of it he is going to try to avoid it at any cost.

I think he would. He gave away the first 7 rounds by running and not throwing punches. He won rounds 8, 9 10 and 11 by out boxing and out fighting Lopez. Lopez won round 12 with a great attack. In a rematch Loma knows he can't give away early rounds and must try to win every round. He also knows what tactics work on Lopez from winning 4 strait rounds.

No, Loma is too small and short for 135, he is better suited for 130. Even though I view Loma as the smarter fighter (he came on strong during the late rounds), he just doesn't have the size for 135 and I don't think his body will ever acclimate to 135.

Loma only won 2 or 3 rounds. After 7 it was 7-0, round 12 was clear, so that's 8-0, Between rounds 8-11 it was very competitive, those rounds could all have went either way, so somewhere between 12-0 Lopez and 8-4 Lopez are the only possible scores. I had it 9-3 or 10-2 I can't remember. Not fussed about seeing it again as it was too one-sided to interest me that much. Maybe if Loma has a good comeback win against someone on the Luke Campbell level where he can look magic.

Loma won rounds 8 9 10 and 11 just as clearly as Teo won rounds 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 and 12. Rounds 8 9 10 and 11 were not very competitive. Loma kicked his ass in those 4 rounds and had Lopez backing up and not liking what was happening to him at all. Maybe the memory of those 4 rounds is why Lopez refuses to give Loma a rematch. 10-2 in Lopez's favor is not correct.

I think Loma adjusted to that jab, figured it out, and so took more risks, that jab is what worried him.

But doing so he took risks and lopez hurt him in the 12th.

I see a rematch competitive, better start from Loma but not that much, I see Loma doing better but his chance of losing by KO increasing.
I see a rematch 30% Lopez decision, 30% Lopez KO, 40% Loma decision.

Teo will be better in a rematch, but so will Loma, both are great smart dudes.

Yeah, I agree....you are I are seeing the many scenarios that could play out which many fans only have tunnel vision and can't see different scenarios.

[RJJ-94-02=GOAT]

I believe so.... I think he would open up sooner and take more chances.

Problem is.... Lopez gonna be more confident himself.

Exactly how I see it man, I think both can improve upon the first fight.

Loma would obviously be much more aggressive early on but that would leave openings that Lopez could exploit.

I actually wanna see a rematch tbh.
