    It’s amazing how he stays so close in the pocket always looking to maximize offense. Beautiful to watch

    Zab is a harder match up for pbf than loma is because hes more of a natural counter puncher who could counter pbf and he had the ablility to beat pbf to the punch and he was explosive. With that said pbf lost 3 rounds to zab. Pbf fought cotto at 154 a weight hes never looked good at and still won going away.

    No need to bring in Floyd Joy Sinclair, whom is obviously a better fighter.

    Loma did well, got knocked on his ass but got back up and delivered the goods.

    ...et tu, Christian? :shakehead:

    I was definitely rooting harder for Linares than you, and yet he definitely lost the ninth.

    He lost it by like a 60-40 margin instead of the ~88-12 of most of the rest of the fight, but still.

    Linares got back in the mix by beating on those soft British boyz and everybody was raving about him. But i was

    like this is the same Linares that got spanked by De Marco, Thomson and Salgado. I always remember the guy getting cut and fade late in fights.

    This is not normal. A boxer going up in weight and defeating the top guy by K.O., without low blows, headbutts or some other $hit... I´m surprised.

    loma is at his absolute peak, where physical and technical skill is best able to help each other.

    Why do you say that? I'd have to see the un
    Who said 154? There wasn't 16 pounds difference in their appearance.

    Selimov? Are you seriously calling for Albert freaking Selimov to come into the pros and challenge Lomachenko, as if he would have a prayer of replicating his amateur success against him?!?

    SIT DOWN, TEDDY! :lol:

    (oh, you're sitting already? Then just STFU...)

    Loma was never hurt.

    Maybe if he had an IV bag he could mask the PED’s to knock out Linares in the second.

    Loma is undisputed P4P #1 now in my book. the knockdown though a solid shot threw off his equilibrium for a split second and with the way his feet were planted was enough to send him down. it's irrelevant to his extraordinary accomplishment regardless, making the far bigger 135lb champ quit.

    I gave him the 9th, as did the scene who are generally ok with scoring. It certainly wasn't a definite round either way.

    Linares had an interview on espn deportes and he said his weight was 144.5. Where did 153 come from?
