It was for the 'champion' to put in the rematch clause. Loma was too ******ly confident. He has a crappy manager and a know nothing. Lopez should still be around. Maybe fight again later?

Loma is still in the mix now. Let's see his intentions after the loss. Someone should ask him. That Russian chick interviewer should follow up.

I know he's not going to 130.

Manager might have played part, but I saw several interviews with Arum, where he was very dismissive of rematch clause and even attacked Hearn for having these. Hearn protects his champion- that's the value a promoter brings. Probably Arum's way of thinking was: if Lopez wins, I've got myself a super star who has at least 10 years in the sport and I'll bank on him. Loma should have pushed through the rematch clause. And now nobody among 135 lb champions mention his name - he is still very dangerous. Sadly, but I see Loma is being shut out from the championship fights and he might be out of his prime in a year or two. This is when his name will be called out again. So yeah, to me Arum has screwed Loma over, whether it was intentional or inadvertent, who knows. But Bob is too experienced to make amateurish mistakes like this...

You would be a fool to argue that boxing has the best fans in all sports. Boxing fans are dumb, they couldnt even tell you about the unified rules of boxing ( I know some of you reading this part are going to have to google that ). You come into a thread expecting to talk about the subject with these goofs of the boxingscene and you leave thinking about unrelated topics, like time-travel.

Boxing fans suck.

We can keep the fool out of it. Many will have to Google unified rules, but not me, nor many others here.
Stand down, leave it alone. Good talk. When you wanna have a real convo I'm here. Until then....

How are those good examples to cast doubt on my knowledge? Tyson Fury literally said he was KO in the 12th round vs. Deontay Wilder. Regis Prograis was on the verge of stopping Josh Taylor in the final round, in a competitive fight. Taylor had to go to the hospital!

Giovanni Segura vs. Ivan Calderon, Mauricio Herrera vs. Ruslan Pruvodnikov, Sonny Boy Jaro vs. Pongsaklek Wonjongkam, Marcos Maidana vs. Adrien Broner, Krysztof Glowacki vs. Marco Huck, Sadam Ali vs. Miguel Cotto, George Groves vs. Chris Eubank jr. Murat Gassiev vs. Yonis Dorticos, who called them?

I don’t doubt your knowledge! I come to boxing scene to air my views and I stay to see your gifs! Anyone with as low an opinion of Terry OConnor as you have is alright in my book.

Ignore the haters and race obsessed children. Keep calling it as you see it!
