    17-3 His record is abysmal. How will he be rated when he retires?

    Nah, he's hanging tough with guys that have size and age advantage. All his loses were razor thin.

    Some of these idiots really think people in the future won’t see and read all the controversy that came with his ‘losses’ and go watch for themselves. Lol :lol: “But Loma got three losses! See?! It says right there!”

    By that same token… you agree that they’ll see Floyd and Roy won silver at the Olympics and FAILED their countries at winning Gold. So they should be viewed as only 2nd best at the games right???? I mean it’s right there IN THE BOOKS!!! They were defeated in the gold medal matches! :) Right???

    But you know who NEVER was defeated at the Olympics…

    :biggrin:

    He should only have one loss as a pro and one loss as amateur, so 2 losses in 423 fights amateur and pro and one of them was avenged twice and the other in his third division, one he doesn't belong in, is his weakest one, and where he is routinely giving away huge physical advantages in that no one in the P4P 10 is, against a massive weight bully who weighs two divisions more than him, when he was coming off 14 months of inactivity and was injured. He couldn't avenge that loss which he signed to do because they ducked it.

    He only has three losses due to corruption rearing its ugly head again and he's been on the wrong side of it a lot whereas many others never are.

    It's the Mayweather effect on these idiots that think being undefeated is so prestigious. I admit Floyd was a great fighter but he wouldn't be undefeated if he wasn't a cherry picker a luxury Loma didn't have or want. Loma has also never been soundly beaten despite being 35 and 2 weights above his natural weight class. Loma has more balls than any US fighter of the last couple generations.

    I know I will get hate for this but truly believe Loma is undefeated. 2 robberies and fought Lopez with basically 1 shoulder which I thought was a draw.

    all that's left is a record, and in a few years people will think Haney won. Look at Twitter right now. people are saying after rewatching that Haney won.

    That’s perfectly reasonable though! Also add to the fact Lopez weaseled out of a rematch with Loma. So did Salido. Multiple times.

    The Salido fight was atrocious. Came in obnoxiously past the weight limit. Hit Loma over 50 times low, HELD… I mean the fact they actually gave Loma a loss in that fight and Salido didn’t get DQ’d… really tells you all you need to know about corruption in the sport.

    I haven’t researched it yet… but as far as a COMBINED record both Amateur and Pros… does Loma have the best one of all time??? I know Floyd lost like 6 or 7 times in the ams.

    Sugar Ray Robinson lost 19 fights, i guess you think he is really **** too right? Look at who Loma has fought, top guys the entire way through. He isn’t like the american fighters who duck everything, he’s a real p4p king
