It’s a bit like what they are like with the good Brazil football teams of the past, every single pass was breathtaking.
It’s not the fault of the above but these people are all human, there’s no such thing as the IP man, anyone can have an off night.

ESPN has the most comfortable seat with boxing because it’s the premier sports network in the USA and a respected brand worldwide. It will ALWAYS have boxing no matter what. Private companies don’t have that luxury

It was the media/fans making statements like, 'best p4p fighter in the history of the sport'. Telling us he's better than Duran, Pac and Mayweather.
It's irritating and creates the 'haters' who just want him to lose so they can call him a hype job. The thing is he's a great fighter that's achieved a lot in the sport but he's nowhere near what some were saying about him. Not sure that's a hype job but someone who was overrated in terms of his skills/abilities and overrated regarding his historical standing in the sport.

alot of people will tell you "dont let the media or fans influence how you view a fighter" but that usually comes when it pertains to a favorite of theirs that they want to defend....reality is when fans/media get overzealous of a guy who hasnt really earned it people will backlash against them a bit....when fans who have bashed mayweathers entire career gush over loma its going to happen.....and i happen to think loma is a very damn good, gifted, fighter.....i dont think he beats floyd at any weight....but that doesnt matter.....its when people get crazy that loma gets heat....there are many posters here who dont live in the real world...when you bash guys like canelo, andre ward and floyd every day expect your "favorite" to be held under the microscoepe too
