    It's time to let it go my man you've been repeating the same argument over and over for god knows how long just let it go, Loma lost legitimately end of most fans believe it and most importantly the 3 judges see it that way aswell. And you analyzing the fight in slow motion isn't going to change diddly squat because who in world watches rounds in slow motion in real time ?

    Loma simply didn't do enough in the 1st half of the fight with an abysmal output its that simple, what judge in their right mind is going to award a fighter a decision for averaging 13 punches thrown for half of the fight ? no fighter in history has won a championship fight by decision averaging 13 punches thrown a round for half the fight.

    The unability to cope with the Lopez loss just shows how crazed Loma fans are. I can't think of any other example where fans obsess over a clear loss like that. It's quite insane.

    I’ve already gone through the same points you’ve raised in another thread. I believe you’re the same guy who said Lopez landed 11 punches in round 2 and completely failed to demonstrate the truth of this (which was completely and utterly wrong by the way)

    I’ve scored these rounds using slow motion and normal speed to understand to understand the number of punches landed and their impact/how clean they were . Loma lands the cleaner more numerous punches than Lopez in rounds 2 and 6.

    You on the other hand threw a number in the air for round 2 and got caught with your pants down not acknowledging with a response. I’m using accuracy and fact in my argument you’re using simply emotion because you’re completely set in your opinion

    Why would I give the slightest **** about your scoring? Try and dig up anyone who isn't choking on Loma's nuts who this decision is controversial to.

    Loma did not beat Teo on any reasonable card.

    Does it matter that Salido was 147 lbs on fight night whereas Loma was 126 lbs?

    Lomachenko has took fights with incredible disadvantage in terms of reach and size. For example Mayweather always had at least comparable reach compared to his opponents. Despite all of this Loma won clearly Haney and Salido and Lopez fights were more likely draws (against Lopez Loma won punch score 160-110). Lomachenko has never been beaten cleanly despite his huge disadvantages.

    ... So extra credit for short arms, then?

    Btw, Lopez outlanded Loma 183-141. I don't know where you got your numbers from, but I strongly suspect that it was from @MismatchHypejob 's ass.

    Yes

    All 3 of his losses could've been won with a bit more heart and a bit less hubris

    I still love him though, and I think he'll be missed when he retires. I would love him to bag Shakur or Tank, Duran-Barkley/Hearns-Hill style, but I doubt it

    Where have you seen that Loma only was 126? He just made the 138 limit for the second weigh-in for the Rigo fight (which was held at 130) which most likely puts him somewhere above 138 lbs for the actual fight.

    I will say he's not an ATG and there should be no conversations as such. I think he is a contemporary HOF'er though.
