Loma did fight rather appenhensively and with caution. Gave Teo too much respect and was intimidated by his power

We can thank Mayweather for that. Too many fighters are trying to emulate his style and protecting their record.He isn’t a fraud and I’m a Lopez fan. You’re the exact problem with boxing today that I cited in an earlier post.
want to know why boxing is going down the s h i t t e r? You’re looking at it square in the mirror.
This is also why MMA is slowly taking over boxing. Why? Because they don’t care about a “0” that boxers and its mentally stunted fans these days are hung up on. All they want to do is fight fight fight. It’s because the best are ALWAYS fighting the best and when you fight the best you take a loss.
Once upon a time boxing mentality was that of MMA. “0” meant less than mixing it up with the best and sorting out who was the top dog. All knew that win or lose they were all going to get paid. I place a large amount of blame on the fans of the sport who happen to be the most venomous of all sports.
Today “boxing fans” are a cancer to the sport. Now if you lose a fight you were “exposed” you were “garbage” you fought “tomato cans” you were “over rated” all along. This gets pasted all over social media because know nothings who waste 90% of their time doing nothing but trashing don’t know the sport. Today not a single fan can spot an iota of talent because if that fighter doesn’t have a “0” he’s trash. Even PFP greatest of all time SRR would be called trash. Fans need to get a gripComment

We all know the Lomachenko was not the same. The real question becomes...why?
A case could be made that it was...- Loma's shoulder needed surgery.
- Too much respect for Lopez's power.
- Terrible game plan.
- Teofimo is simply too big and too fast.
Time will tell.Comment

Leave Arum and make peanuts? Why?Lomo has the talent but
1. He was the most privileged fighter ever by getting a title shot his 2nd fight as pro.
2. Losing his 2nd fight to Salida and getting ANOTHER title shot a fight or two later.
3. Being rated no.1 P4P all while being beaten in 2nd fight, being knocked down by jab to his body and only having 13 fights at the time. That was very insulting to the all time great fighters!!
4. He just got exposed by Lopez and has 2 losses in 15 fights. That's what happens when ur too hyped by networks and biased writers.
Shakur is a baby faced talented,competitive sharpshooter who I hope leaves Arums top stank so he can get the notoriety he deserves.Comment

Maybe Loma gave Lopez the exact correct amount of respect. He felt his man out and accurately sensed when Lopez’ foot injury was going to keep him from scoring a spectacular second round Commey type KO. Guy stepped on the gas and won a few rounds from then on.
Or hey, maybe I’ve accidentally won thousands upon thousands of dollars this year over the course of many bets.Comment

Who's the fruad?
Lomachenko takes a loss and he's a fraud? Coming from the guy that pushed metal packed gloves, heavy costume, tampered gloves, spies and spiked water.
Hypocritical, no?Comment

It is easier said then done.
Teofimo was staying behind that strong jab against a guy with a much shorter reach. You would be a fool to try and mount an offense before figuring out how to get past that jab first. Because if he can measure you with that jab then he can land that right hand or hook off that jab.
I think Shakur is getting better each fight. Still not sure what his ceiling is because he still has not fought someone who can accurately define as being this good at least. I do get the feeling that he is thinking that he is Andre Ward and Terence Crawford in terms of skills and capabilities just because he hangs around them. That is not how boxing works though. When he puts in his work and builds his resume then he can begin to start critiquing fighters that are on the championship level.Comment

Since you seem to pick them, who do you have Teofimo vs Prograis or Taylor?Maybe Loma gave Lopez the exact correct amount of respect. He felt his man out and accurately sensed when Lopez’ foot injury was going to keep him from scoring a spectacular second round Commey type KO. Guy stepped on the gas and won a few rounds from then on.
