Dude, it's right there. We all saw it. Lopez threw 100 more jabs through 5 rounds... He ran away. Period. This content is protected
And Lopez ran away from the rematch. Hmm, it’s almost as if he knew he couldn’t beat a healthy version of Loma. Not going to argue with you because it’s not worth my time. You are free to hate any boxers you wish.
How can he be a bully when he's a featherweight fighting as a small lightweight? I agree teos power made him hesitant in their fight. Teo Lopez is a big lightweight.
**** Loma, he insulted the kid (dude was beaten by a green 23 year old), was condescending and arrogant like he'd beaten Pernell Whitaker. And then he refused to put a rematch clause into the fight because he thought so little of Teo and his chances. There's just no way he should grant him the rematch after the way Loma treated Lopez.
Lopez is a coward and headcase. He showed his true colors when he refused the rematch. He’s a classless punk along with his father. Big mouth punk who I will never respect. It’s no surprise you like the guy.
Right, he has so much self belief that he avoided a rematch - like the plague - with Loma after a close fight. His actions say more than the words that come from his big mouth. Keep supporting coward punks and puffing them up. Teo is classless and ran like a coward from a rematch after running his mouth.
What's good for the goose is good for the gander. That Lopez loss was a life lesson for Loma. Treat people with respect or what goes around comes right back around.
Imagine thinking that someone who is natural 126 pounder, fighting at 135 much bigger and stronger guys - is a BULLY
I knew that it would be unpopular with the people who are wearing the massive Loma love goggles. But if they just took them off for a brief second, they would see how wrong they got it.
Loma has never acted with anything but respect for opponents. You are delusional. I’m tired of interacting with guys like you, to be honest. Say whatever you wish, we will just disagree. That’s cool but I’m not wasting time responding further.
A frontrunner is somebody who starts strong but gasses later in the fight. With Loma in regards to the Lopez fight he fought the total opposite.. So is he a laterunner then?
This is one fight in his third division, one he has no right being in, and he is facing giants who weigh just under 2, 2 or even 3 divisions more than him, and big punchers and massive punching KO artists who are way bigger, longer and heavier than him. He's a natural 126 pounder facing very big/massive 135 pounders who look like death on the scales. He looked healthy on them down at 126. Giving away 8-15lbs of weight and often just under 6'' in reach is a huge amount for a natural 126 pounder to be giving away Loma is a three-weight champ Beterbiev is a one weight champ and is big and very strong at the weigh Loma has fought way better opposition and way more world champions than Beterbiev Loma was a much better amateur and that's saying a lot because Beterbiev was an excellent one Loma is very rarely the bigger guy and he's very often the smaller one, often by a significant or huge margin in terms of weight and reach Beterbiev isn't outweighed by 2 or 3 divisions ever, even by lower weight class amounts He's tiny for 135 and he was often giving away significant or big amounts of weight, reach or both even down at 126 and 130, let alone up at 135 Loma was the much lighter man against He's only had 18 fights Linares Pedraza Teofimo Commey Campbell Nakatani Salido Martinez Crolla Ramirez Piriyapinyo So that's 11 of his 18 fighters he was at least 1-3 weight divisions lighter He was 3lbs lighter against Sosa So that's 12 of his 18 fights he was lighter He was 0.5lbs heavier against Russell 1lb heavier than Walters 1lb heavier against Koasicha 11 of his 18 fights he was 1-3 divisions lighter, 12 he was lighter, and 3 he had a 1lb weight advantage of less So that makes 15 of his 18 fights Marriaga would've at worst weighed 1 or 2lbs less than him if less at all So that's 16 of his 18 fights where he was way lighter or 1 or 2lbs max heavier That just leaves 2 fights where he had a big weight advantage more than 1 or 2lbs max Rigo and Rodriguez and Rigo had a 2'' reach advantage on him Jermaine Ortiz is a big 135 pounder who has been talking about moving up to 140 for a while now Here's 7 prime world champions or top contenders Loma has fought at 135 alone who are way heavier than him, most 2 or even some are 3 divisions heavier than him and most of whom have big/huge reach advantages on him Linares Pedraza Commey Teofimo Campbell Nakatani Crolla With the exception of Crolla and Pedraza all are either big or huge punchers and Pedraza whilst not known as a puncher was much heavier than him too so the power is magnified Number of world champions fought and when you add the context regarding size, punchers fought, and fighting prime champs it gets even better for Loma Canelo in 19 in 61 fights Loma 11 in 18 fights Inoue 9 in 23 fights Crawford 9 in 38 fights Tank 7 in 27 fights << pure PBC smoke & mirrors Spence 7 in 28 fights Usyk 6 in 20 fights Taylor 5 in 19 fights Beterbiev 4 in 18 fights Haney 4 in 28 fights Jermello 4 in 37 fights Bivol 3 in 20 fights Jermallo 3 in 32 fights Wilder 3 in 45 fights Shakur 2 in 18 fights And Loma is one of the most aggressive fighters in the entire sport He sports some of the very best plus minus stats in the sport, despite fighting against the level of opposition and number of world champions he's fought, whilst often being the smaller/much/way smaller man and and fighting all these giants and so many big/huge punchers, many of whom much bigger and heavier than him The fact he's one of the best defensive fighters when you factor all that in an his aggressive style is astonishing And if you want to cite Gvozdyk's win for Beterbiev make sure you don't forget he was considered the weakest and is the weakest out of the big Ukrainian 3 behind Loma and Usyk, both amateur and pro
Murderers row right there. Anthony Crolla will put the fear of God into any Lightweight past, present and future.
