Relax man, I can see what the OP means. I love Loma, but I love competition more. Just like Mikey Garcia, I was a huge fan but the fact that his opposition was mediocre at best made his career uninteresting. I really hope Loma doesn't go that route.
His career is treading water. I applaud him for taking out the trash, and Crolla was trash last night, make no mistake about it. Loma hasn't fought a guy that bad since Koasica. It was a mandatory, but he owes the fans a fight now, that would be viewed as a challenge. Move your arse up, beat Garcia, take Ramirez, and Hooker's belts, and have a showdown with the Rugaroo. The man is skilled enough, and has the motor, to do what the **** he wants from 130 to 147. Will he choose to stay where he is, and let Arum continue feeding him baby food, or does he want to enhance his legacy, and find challenges = to his skill level. Saying he's too small is a ****ing excuse, let the man develop the balls to be great.
He's also 31 years old. That's not young for smaller fighters. He needs to stop wasting his time fighting gimme fights and start doing something incredible that will cement his name alongside the greats.
Do you know what happens if he said no to Crolla ?? Most people would be moaning " he never unified" or the haters would have that ready to say
Why does he have to go up multiple weight classes to appease you? That’s such a garbage opinion. He’s already moved up twice.
Because I'm a paying fan, and he fights for the fans, so that we can pay him. He could also move down and fight Miguel Berchelt, which he should have, but ol Bob Arum likes to have his fighters move up and pick up titles but not against the top dogs in the division.
Russell, Walters, Rigo, Linares. One of the very top resumes in boxing with those wins. We are witnessing a legend.
Nonsense posts in here as per usual. Crolla's a former world champion and was the mandatory to his belt. Loma will never watch one of his belts vanish because he didn't find a mando. And let's be clear, he's never moving up to 140 or 147. The haters calling for that just want to see him get his shiet pushed in like ole Mike Garcia! Not gonna happen! If anything I look forward to him moving down to where he belongs at 130lbs. Berchelt and Tank are there.....though let's be honest, Tank wants NONE of that ever. So bring on Comney, Lopez, Cambell. Excellent, excellent fights.
im seeing a lot of his "resume is ****".... Lets compare his resume to some of the other top "P4P" fighters.... Resumes Loma > Crawford Loma > Spence Loma > Garcia Loma > Lopez. But hey, Loma is EE so pick on his resume.
He doesn't. I just have higher aspirations for his talent, than most other Lomachenko fans. I find it odd, and somewhat humorous that some are so protective of him. Most of you are acting like he didn't fight his best two opponents five years ago. Five years is a long time.
