Crazy that ppl would even watch that crap, after he looked like a toddler vs a Floyd that toyed with him to extend the fight a bit.
So nobody watched Lomachenko get schooled? I saw a lot of people elsewhere concede Loma lost but were bellyaching about the cards. I watched it twice. I have no idea where this is coming from. Giving him anything more than three rounds would be extremely generous. Loma clearly won round 11. You can make a case for round 8 and 10 but those aren't clearly his either.
lol i watched the entire thing, people was complaining why wasnt loma throwing any punches in the early rounds and as a man who has followed and studied the history of boxing, i will tell you its because Loma CAN NOT AND DOES NOT know how to fight off the back foot. That attribute is what makes a fighter like floyd mayweather the best fighter of all-time along with ali. In boxing when you move up weight classes you wont be able to overpower guys like you did at lower classes. These bigger fighters will start backing you up and pressuring you( see canelo/floyd), if you know how to fight of of the back foot you can become unbeatable because bigger fighters cant punk you with their size and smaller fighters wont hurt you( because you can outbox them). Loma as much i enjoy watching his fights would get koed by floyd, and floyd is not really a ko puncher. But if we are talking Floyd at lightweight he destroys loma inside of 10 rounds. Tonight we saw a bigger man( lopez beat a smaller man loma), but if loma could fight off the back foot like floyd did to canelo along with diego corraless and jose luis castillo for example than the size would not make a difference
a lot of great fights to be made at that 135-140 range loma is a great fighter and still one of the best p4p but its been apparent that he's not untouchable at 135 like he was at feather. I think he could win a rematch tbh but i'm not sure he wants it or that teo is at lightweight much longer. loma v berchelt at 130/135 would be great.
lmao i forgot tank was fighting and just ended up watching the inuoe fight. yea leo was always going to get ktfo. i wonder how big tank came in. regardless a fight with ryan needs to happen soon.
Davis will knockout Garcia, Haney, Farmer, Comey and probably Campbell. I want to see him fight Lopez, Loma and Javier Fortuna
I'm not sure about that. Tank did what he was supposed to do by knocking out leo, but knocking out a featherweight doesnt really move the needle. Same with his previous fight with Gamboa. garcia, haney, loma, and teo all beat him imo. all could be great fights and need to happen as soon as possible tho.
I was really surprised how small Loma looked -- he's so short/ stocky it kind of masks his actual size until he's next to someone.
Joshua-Pulev today, should be an interesting fight. If Joshua is as weak as in the first Ruiz fight, Pulev might have a decent shot.
Pleeeeaaase make this happen, most interesting fight in HW by far. Apparently match and rematch both in 2021.
I've been watching as much boxing as I can since the middle of the summer. Top Rank on ESPN was one of the first sporting events back on TV. I watched three main events on Saturday in boxing and all of the Top Rank broadcast. Edgar Berlanga is as exciting to watch as anyone I can ever remember. Nakatani come back on Verdejo was awesome. I missed Shakur Stevenson's fight when he opened up the bubble but they have been pumping this kid up the whole time. Dude looked technically sound I was hoping he finished off Clary but there was no need to take the risk. I was able to watch a little bit of the Colbert/Arboledo fight between the ESPN broadcast. Chris Colbert finishing on Arboledo was pretty impressive. Also, Joshua looked strong and I hope they get that Fury fight signed immediately.
Binged some of Colbert's fights earlier today, his natural instincts and counter punching are top tier. Still eats more shots than he should and sometimes likes to trade blows too much, but has huge potential.
