THROWBACK: Cop Tells Teofimo To Rematch Loma, Teofimo Snaps

[4truth]

I'd like to see a rematch also but I'm also thinking that Loma's career was changed forever after the Linares fight. That injury might never be okay again.

[Quercusalba]

I'm definitely a Loma fan and thought the fight could be a draw going into the 12th. Lopez clearly won the 12th, however, and therefore won the fight pretty obviously to my eyes (more likely Loma needed the 12th to even get a draw. I've only watched the fight once) It was a solid and uncontroversial (to me) win for Teo.

I do think, though, the fight was close and competitive enough to warrant a rematch. If they go again, it will most likely be a good fight and a good money-maker. Teo thinks he has bigger fish to fry and that is, of course, his right. But, fans love a rematch which makes Lopez vs. Loma II the most compelling and probably most profitable option.

People here defending Teofimo so badly are so ******.

Look Teofimo wants big money and the biggest fight he can make is with Lomachenko.

But you all disregard that like the dumbasses you are and instead BRAG about how you think the fight was not close and a rematch isn't deserved.

Well damn, if it wasn't close then why isn't Teofimo take a big easy payday? He ain't fighting anyone else for near that.

Dumbass mother ****ers I tell you.

how the **** can you give loma more than 5 rounds when he gave up the first 7? i don't like teo, and i think he's been a HUGE diva after the loma win, but this fight was not even close.

Your eyes lied to you.

Lopez CLEARLY won Rounds 1-6. Period. Because Loma didn't do anything.

The only round that everyone got wrong is Round 12.

Round 12 was Lopez looking flashy but accomplishing hardly nothing except that one solid body shot and a bunch of dirty punches off the break. You don't win a whole round because you got one punch off when the vast majority of whatever else you threw missed or hit gloves.



You take Round 12 away and you're left with a swing round for either guy and five rounds for Loma.

I don't care if you want to say that you preferred Lopez's work in 12. That gets you 7-5. That's NOT a blowout. Especially since the rounds that Lopez won were not decisive either.

I had Teo also winning round 7. Round 8 was close (Loma started pushing the pedal), but I thought Teo edged it. Either way, giving Loma round 8 isn't bad. I'd say giving Loma rounds 8 through 11 is fair. That's 4 rounds.

I thought Teo was touching up Loma nicely in the final round. I never would have thought that this fight would be so "controversial". I saw a gunshy Loma who did not want to get knocked out, but when the final round came, Lopez came out comfortably ahead.

8-4, 7-5, whatever. I actually don't mind rematches. Shane got his rematch with Forrest even though he arguably lost every round. But I can't see how it's Teo's fault for not granting a rematch when Loma didn't include a rematch clause out of arrogance.

Round 7 was more of the same like Round 12. Teo looking flashy but accomplishing nothing of note, and Loma stepped it up.

You scored based on who threw more, NOT who actually accomplished something, and you punished Loma for not doing what he normally does. Because there's simply no way Teofimo won Round 8.

Yes, Loma did step it up in round 7. That doesn't mean he won. Teo landed the harder shots and more frequently. Loma stepped it up more in round 8, but Teo still did better than him.

No, Teo hit Loma's gloves harder.

Ultimately, it's clear that for some of you, the two guys were just too darn fast. You got caught up in Lopez's sizzle and gave him credit for stuff he didn't really achieve.

You punished Loma because he didn't do what Loma was supposed to do. That's fine. But if that's the case, it means even 50% of Lomachenko was able to take the best Lopez had to offer.

Which warrants a rematch.

Huh? When watching the fight, Lopez was landing the shots. Body shots, arm shots, etc. Even if they were not clean, it's a lot better than doing NOTHING.

I didn't punished Loma because he didn't do what "Loma was supposed to do". I punished Loma for doing nothing for SEVEN rounds. Oscar got robbed against Felix for "running" the last 3 rounds even though he easily won the first 8-9 rounds. But the judges punished him for it. Loma was even worse. That 119-109 scorecard was fair.

...yeah, you have ZERO credibility with that.
