    I realize u fan boys don’t know such things.
    He's 32 and 32 is hardly very old now is it like seriously when is 32 considered very old in any weight class? and all this he's fighting well above his weight nonsense needs to stop, he competed and won a gold medal at lightweight 10 years back! He wasn't too small then.

    Just excuses.

      For BOXERS GENIUS. it is old. Peak for any NORMAL man NOT a boxer is 25.
      If Loma was a car. He would have 200,000 miles on it. Look up his amateur record. HE HAS ALOT OF MILES.

        Its just fitting nobody mentioned his age or mileage or anything of the sort before Lopez beat him.

        You guys were calling for him to fight Manny Pacquaio LOL and claiming he was the damn goat and all sorts of wacky cr4p.

        ''He'd beat a lightweight Floyd Mayweather'' then as soon as he stops fighting guys half his size he begins looking normal. Guys who frankly aren't close to being world beaters. Finally he fights someone who isn't a Pedraza, Linares, Campbell - A fighter that losses every single time he steps up and he gets whooped. Now apparently he's an old man!
        How convenient the moment he losses he is suddenly shot. Just like GGG when he stopped fighting cans and looked human.

        He might have mileage what fighter doesn't?

            I hear your side well. I'm one of the guys who called Loma worn out well before the Lopez fight. The guy had almost 400 amateur bouts. That can't be good on the body, even if you are a defensive wiz.

            I personally don't think much of Lopez, boxing wise, but he scared Loma that night. Lopez wasn't there to see if he can compete with the great Loma, like the previous Loma opponents did, he was there to impose his will. He won. That loss will haunt Loma forever, especially after being put on a pedestal.

            I think he considered retirement. Maybe he still has two good fights in him.

              It doesn't surprise me. Lopez deserved the win but Lomachenko basically gave the fight away.

              I would favour Loma in a rematch, or against any other top 135lber. I still think he's the best in the division, he just underperformed and (rightfully) lost his spot as the current number one.

                Let's not pursue the bolded part above. Loma didn't give away crap. I see many Loma fans say this. That's a complete BS. This is how I explain it:

                Lopez wasn't there to see if he can compete with the great Loma, like the previous Loma opponents did, he was there to impose his will. He won.

                Let's go beyond the denial stage.

                  Bruh, he didn't throw any punches for the first six rounds. Lopez's will isn't THAT strong.

                    Just cause no one mentioned it. Dont change the facts. He’s a hyper dude. Who uses speed to beat people. First thing to go is speed. Ask ROY JONES JR.
                    Your so typical of people that need to be fed information. Can never come up with it yourself. Dumb kids.

                      Timing and reflexes, reaction timing will go long before speed.
                      And while speedy I wouldn't say speed was one of his best attributes.
                      If you are fast you're fast just like a puncher they're just born that way. Even a retired sprinter well into his forties will be lightening quick & the decrease will be rather minimal from their peak.
                      RJJ was still lightening fast well in his forties even when out of shape he had blinding handspeed.
                      I can not recall one fighter in history whose speed suddenly declined at the age of 32. Maybe Lopez just made him look slower or his timing was out a bit from inactivity.

                      Are you actually incapable of posting without silly name calling? Not that I care about online insult attempts or what someone calls me on or off online but its likely why you're in red and will inevitably end up banned at some point only to have to make what is probably your 7th account of the year already.
