    Loma responded with "that fight doesn't interest me"

    Whether he'd destroy Berchelt or not, he had a belt... I don't understand why he didn't want that fight.
    Because Berchelt is and always was an 'eye test' nobody.

    People just don't get it.

    Guys at the top want to fight guys who accomplished something other than a trinket, if they're not mandatory.

    You guys want your 'eye test' to get a shot before they're ready. Which gets the majority of them sparked out, as you've recently witnessed.

    Money plays a big part, as seen with Manny recently ducking Spence (a good payday) to try for Ryan (a great psyday).

    Loma wasn't going to fight a guy that can't market himself unless they threw money.

      Quite the opposite is the case. Berchelt was the one who held off on fighting him.

        OR...we need to criticize at least three of Manny's best wins (Algieri, Rios, Matthysse) and two of Crawford's (Khan, Gamboa), plus Lomachenko (Rigo).
        Algieri, Rios and Matthyse are among Manny's weakest wins since becoming a champ.

          I swear NSB has these moments of hyping guys and then suddenly crickets or down play.

          Like Yildrim. I swear people were saying they wanted to see him fight Canelo before it was announced. I have no clue why but I swear I saw posts of it.
          No one ever said they wanted to see Yildirim fight Canelo, everyone knows he's crap.

            Best wins in terms of risk/reward. Most money, least risk.
