    Other than Roman Gonzales, who is tiny, who's the last top 5 pfp fighter to fall off at age 31?

    If Pac was near his prime there's a good possibility Loma would suffer permanent injuries.

    I,d give davis a chance. The guy is a talent. You cant help feeling mayweather is helping to hurt his career tho. I genuinely dont think mayweather wants his guys to do well such is his own insecurities. He,ll put him into lomachenko without having the necesssry fights for it. I think davis,s strong punching is a nightmare for lomachenko. Loma does get hit. Campbell did at the weekend anyway.

    Between davis himself and mayweather....you get the feeling they,ll mess up his career tho. Davis doesnt have the temperament for it. I think he has the style tho. You,ve got to hurt lomachenko. Davis can do that imo

    Two guys with terrible lifestyles, one guy with CTE, and Tito....Tito didn't really fall off until 2005 against Winky; in hindsight, we know that he never would've beaten Hopkins.

    Odds are Loma still has good years ahead of him.

    You're reading too much into Mayweather's public character. They tried to get Davis to fight Mares, but Mares tore his retina. The greatest obstacle here is that Loma is with Arum, which is a common theme.

    I voted Loma, but understand where you're coming from. If Loma can't hurt Davis, I can see Davis walking him down and inflicting some pain. I just can't go against Loma at this point. More skilled, more experience, better opposition. No cake walk for Davis.

    I don't agree with the notion that Mayweather is hurting Davis' career. Is he truly ready for someone as experienced as Loma? If anything he's just wanting to make sure his guy is ready to take on such a great fighter.

    Gervonta is powerful and he'd have to make it a phone booth fight to have a chance. Make it dirty from the opening bell, stay on the inside for as long as possible (which is a difficult ask given Loma's elite footwork to dart in and out,) and just try to rough up Vasyl as much as possible.

    I still think Tank needs a couple fights before the Loma showdown but if he's moving up to 135 lbs full time now, I don't know what other viable options there are for him at the division. Maybe a fight with Campbell or the loser of Commey-Lopez seem like a good start for him at LW.

    Another thing that Tank Davis would possibly struggle against Loma is his stamina.

    It's true that Davis has incredible destructive power in his punches, but he has mostly fought 6-7 rounds the most throughout his career. He never faces top calibre class boxer who is highly skilled and formiddable enough to be able to force him to go to the distance. All of people who have seen Loma's fight know very well that Loma still move like he still has a plenty of gas in his tank in round 12 though having moving around a lot the whole time. This was proven by his ability to hold his breath underwater for more than 4 minutes.

    Since Tank is basically the same as Loma (if not smaller), Loma would most likely outbox him and make Tank chasing him. Loma will make figure him out, making him miss and counter him. Not easy for Tank to land his powerful shots, even Campbell who has longer reach was jabbed accurately many times by Loma.

    Not true. I said 31 isn’t old these days for “guys who take care of themselves.” You names two fat guys, a guy with CTE, and a guy who was only guilty of losing to a bigger ATG.

    I’ve always been NoNeck or N_N____

    Well yeah, Davis likely isn't ready for someone like Loma. But what exactly has Davis done since he demolished Pedraza? It's been almost 3 years now.
    The best he has done is run over Cuellar and schedule a fight with Mares. Mares who was a featherweight.

    And supposedly Farmer's side made Davis a massive offer but they turned it down.

    Davis has been in limbo for a while now.

    Tank will knock out Loma.

    Does Loma have a great chin? No. He has been put down with a straight right. Imagine what damage Tank will cause with his power shots.

    Tank is going to break down and knockout Loma doing the following:

    Loma like to come low with the head. And we all know Tank is great with the left upper cut
    Loma does not like getting hit to the body - well we know Tank likes to damage the body.

    Upper cut and bodyshots is what be the undoing on Loma. Tank will walk him down and finish him off.

    NoNeck, dude you asked for a name he gave it to you, now you are finding all kind of excuses and making yourself looks like a ......
    And its not only the lifestyle that matter how long you can stay at your prime. Once again there is a lot of other factors and most importantly genetics play huge role. How many matches you have, how many rounds, how many tough battle you was at, your style of course and so on.
    And yeah Loma look for himself, but his style is draining, he have 400+ matches, so he could very well start slipping soon.
    And once again, just like i mention in my previous post, this could be the case, but could not be. No one knows.
