    Really? "Cancerous narcissist"...? It really isn't that serious. You're being extremely melodramatic.

    He's just a young guy talking trash after doing what he said he'd do and beat the guy everyone said was the best fighter since Leonidas. Athletes and sports fans both talk trash all day every day. It isn't like he said anything politically incorrect or racist. People gave him no chance before the win and they're still hesitating to give him credit even after the win in the biggest match up of 2020. I'd talk some major **** too.

    Canelo beat him twice. You should be more humble, you're lucky Lil G got that draw the first time he didn't deserve even that.

    Teo has every reason to gloat and say I told you so but lets get one thing clear - Lomachenko is not a "basic" fighter. There's nothing basic about him. Basic fighters don't have that kind of footwork, basic fighters don't implement a strategy of giving away early rounds then explode in the middle to late rounds with high energy bursts. Now it turned out to be a failed strategy, but it's still an advanced strategy none the less.

    Lomachenko is a high level operator. But he was outgunned vs Lopez and he was super cautious not just early on but for nearly half the match. But he eventually made it a fight.

    hey, the number one Loma hater chimes in! You are correct, he can say whatever he likes. It’s a reflection of his character. Not surprising when you hear his father speak.

    High level operator against careful matchmaking.

    He lost a fight to a bigger, younger guy. It happens in boxing. Most guys lose eventually. I have more respect for guys who fight anyone than guys who duck dangerous guys and fight bums.
    I was just commenting on the lack of class Teo showed in victory. It’s cool if you are equally classless. Hope you accomplish something in your life. I don’t like your chances but that’s okay. If you ever do, maybe you will show more class than Teo and his father.

    Not at all because he did not find Loma particularly difficult. He proved he was the better boxer, boxer puncher, technical fighter with superior ring generalship. I think the scorecards basically showing he won 8-4 rounds, 9-3 rounds and 10-1-1 rounds pretty much shows he found Loma a buck standard fighter he dealt with, without difficulty. For years he and his father had predicted Loma would be easy work and he proved it.

    What was your opinion of Julie Lederman's card in Lopez Lomachenko - Was it more Vegas corruption?

    :lol:
    your insecurities got you emotionally attached to a man you feel best represents you, because you got no achievements of your own. its easy to see by those that dont share those insecurities. its the same way a child says his daddy can beat up your daddy, because his daddy is who he wants to be.

    Big mouth usually dislike other big mouths... Judging by the way you describe this kid also shows there is no humility in you. It pays to be a big mouth in boxing as 50% of fans want to see if you could back it up when time comes and the other 50% want to see you get kill... It translates to money... Kid was humble after the fight and gave Loma a hug.. what else do you want ?

    Theres nothing wrong with confidence. If you dont feel that way about your skills then youre in the wrong sport. Hes looked humble to me.
