    Real fighters don't care about the term "pound for pound" like Loma, Canelo and Crawford. Inoue, Usyk & Fury are real fighters.

    You're obviously trolling. But Lomachenko is the greatest amateur fighter to ever live, and one of the best pro fighters of this era. He'll certainly be remembered.

    I expected more, but still ..3 weight world champ, unified champ, p4p number 1, should have been undisputed. He achieved a lot.

    Amazing fighter. Loved watching his footwork and angles and amazing combination punching.

    Have a great retirement champ. Will love watching your fight clips for years and years.

    Obviously he wasnt sure whether he wanted to continue or not. Many atheletes take time before making that kind of decision across all sports.

    End of an era and definitely one of the most talented fighters in the past 10-15 years. He's also probably the most accomplished amateur in the history of boxing. And realistically he probably only has one defeat (Teofimo). The Haney fight was either a win or, at worst, a draw and the Salido fight was a joke between missing weight and fouling and Laurence Cole, the corrupt ref, allowing Salido to punch during ref instructions and/or Cole holding Loma's gloves while Salido hit him...was insane.

    The keyshawn fight should be top priority for Tank, younger blood compared to an aging Lomo

    In his prime one of the best boxing styles I've seen. Genius talent, high athleticism. And his amateur career was a pleasure to witness. One of my personal all time favourites definitely.

    Never thought I'd get to see Vasyl live let alone see his last ever fight. What a brilliant fighter

    It would’ve been nice for Loma to pass the torch to Shakur but I don’t think Loma would even come close to winning.

    If he stayed he would have to fight Tank and we all know what would happen and he knows it as well. People want to fight Tank or say they do but cometh the moment introspection and self awareness creeps. When you fight Tank nit only do you stand a good chance of losing you can get seriously hurt.

    Probably won't see a better talent for many, many years to come. An actual genius

    Lopez beat him quite clearly. Probably the only fighter that's officially beaten Loma without controversy.
