Lomachenko believes that the judges were bribed when he lost to Lopez

For 2021, I'd like:

Pacquiao-Lopez
Pacquiao-Lomachenko

 

So, I guess he was in it the fix himself ? It was he himself who contributed the most by doing nothing and letting Teo bag the early rounds.

 

I'm not sure what you are responding too. Even if what you say above were correct, it has nothing to do with Loma accusing judges of actually taking bribes. He needs to tip his hat to the superior fighter *on that night*.

 

How dare they not give him rounds where he didn't even throw a punch

 

Had it a draw personally but 7-5 is fine. The cards were way too wide which is what he's referring to.

This isn't a Wilder situation. He feels he won a close fight, nothing wrong with that.

 

Its a pure excuse. Lopez was the better man that night, give him his credit and if you feel you can beat him, do the rematch.

 

This. If Loma wants to blame someone for his loss he should look in the mirror. Lopez won fair and square. Loma took too long to start throwing punches. Not throwing punches and retreating too much looks very bad to most judges.

This reminds me of Lamont Peterson when he fought Danny Garcia. Lamont barely threw a punch for first 4-5 rounds, but at the end of the fight was completely shocked when he didn’t get the decision.

 

This. Loma’s claims of the judges being bribed makes no sense.

 

Lomachenko is far from being a good person, to be honest. He can't stand beign criticized by anyone except probably his father. Few years ago he was talking in a live stream with his fans and one of them said he admires Vasyl's technique, boxing IQ and his overall skills but thinks that Loma should work more on improving his punching power. What did Loma respond to him? Something like "Oh, I'll work hard to make sure I'll be at my best at everything", you think? NO! Loma said: "Come to my gym, I'll hit you a couple of times to the head and to the body, and then be sure you'll say the same words you just said to me here"

 

You said “ he’s going down the Wilder route”, imo that fight was being billed as the passing of the torch, nobody Loma has faced has received as much attention in the build up as Lopez, it was all about him, I thought it odd. Then you look at the scorecards an one is really dodge. I think it was a masterclass by Arum, hyping the life out of Lopez coming in, if it was tight Lopez was gonna get it. Loma hasn’t been 100% for a while, Arum would be privy to Lomas injuries an act on it. No way Lopez gets the hype from Arum 3-4 yrs ago because Loma was on fire, even 2 yr ago

 

Wow... that's very disappointing. Really gives a new light on Loma as a person. Can't say I'm surprised though.

 

It’s hard to take advice an not feel a little insulted with what he’s done as an amateur an pro. I’d of ignored it, perhaps a bad day Loma was having

 

When the cards are too wide it has the familiar stench of a rigged fight for the home/money-brand fighter. He's perfectly right to bring attention to it. The fact he gave away too many rounds or that a points loss may be reasonable isn't relevant, doesn't mean corruption isn't at work.

The overly wide scores are what give the game away, just like the 117 Canelo card in the Golovkin fight.

 

If he wants to blame someone he should blame himself for the slow starts and lack of offensive output.

 

I hate excuses you lost fair and square get over it and move on. Bad look from Loma.
