    It seems to have slipped under the radar that Teo has enlisted the services of Joey Gamache as an assistant trainer to that utterly revolting bald creep of a father of his, that's the same Gamache who was a member of Team Loma for a while

    If Loma feels someone is too powerful and dangerous, he can just change his tactic to superfast moving and only earning points, without risk.I'm sure he can do it, it will be ugly, but guaranteed win, so, no way Lopez can win.And I'm not sure he will be the one who will put Loma to "ugly winning the rounds" mode.

    Loma should win this comfortably on points, unless he gets careless. Teo is too raw right now. His dad is a bad trainer and he's just starting to get better coaching from outside. He's been getting by mostly on his natural ability and should see big improvement in the next couple years.
    But he does have a chance of catching Loma and seriously hurting him, I just don't think Loma will allow it.

    I look at Fimo as somewhat like Wilder. He's a rough unfinished product, but appears to pack dynamite that can end fights with a single shot.

    As natural Lightweights On Paper they both should beat Vasyl Lomachenko, Vasyl is the physical underdog

    Pernell Whitaker was the best at neutralizing the size advantage, the rest just gave up advantages & compensated with better matchmaking as they moved up.

    Dude said he was too big and too strong. He basically said Loma wont bite down on his mouthpiece and take my power.

    Teo was ABSOLUTELY RIGHT!!!!!!!

    Loma was afraid of his power and toughness. Teo looked like a real bad mother****er in there.

    He said he would make Loma go back down in weight. And that he cant hang with the big boys.

    Teo was right!!!!! Loma fought scared. Afraid to get hit by that power.

    He said he was bigger and stronger than Loma. And then Loma ran away for 7 rounds.

    Too big, too strong.

    All these guys here crack me up. They see Loma and see him with dazzling footwork, but dont realize it's still a damn fistfight.

    They shadow box in their mirror and imagine themselves like Loma carving up their opponent. Then you realize the other man is like a piece of iron and wont budge one inch. And your fantasy is destroyed.

    So I guess you're admitting that Teofimo who's a natural welterweight was way too big for Lomachenko? And that size had everything to do with why he beat him? So I guess that means Teo deserves as much credit for beating Loma as Spence does for beating Mikey. Making this win look far less impressive, since the much smaller man was starting to beat his ass up late.

    I never made a pick. I said I think Loma will win. But never dismissed his chances to win like 95 percent of the forum. I recognized he was was a very live underdog.

    See this post confused me

    "I think Loma will beat Lopez despite the size difference"

    I mean I'd class that as a pick.

    Way to take all context out of the equation. I never wrote off Lopez or was dismissive of his chances the way 95 percent of the forum was.
