    Corbett has the size advantage but hold on.

    Loma ushered in the revolutionary 4.0 boxing style.

    When Corbett fought we didn’t even have running electricity. The automobile was a garage experiment.

    When Loma fought, we had computers, smartphones, space exploration, AI robots, and highly advanced medicine.

    Football became a passing game. Basketball introduced the jump shot.

    Things evolve

    I can see Jimmy not taking the bout seriously then being frustrated in a short amount of time and resorting to a Carnera style bludgeoning where he just clubs Loma to near death in the corner of the ring due to just the sheer difference in mass and strength.

    I presume a nose through a nearby thread will uncover a discussion between reznick and other about "the modernistas"?

    Loma loses a clear decision to Corbett but Teofimo Lopez probably gets Corbett out of there in under 5.

    People seem to have the mindset that lomas prime has been and Lopez prime is yet to come so they feel like they can compare Loma to others from the past
