    Oh look hypocritical irony!

    I will always critsize and mock people who lack a certain level of humility, now I understand all high level athletes require an ego it's a big driver but we have seen enough men to remain truly humble with humility that can be an example, Usyk for example. So when you get overrated chumps specfically Canelo & Crawford try to take claim to be something more than they are they shall mocked! “For those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted” (Matthew 23:12)

    Now I rarely diminish the love of my life Tyson Fury but he has felt the wrath of god in this sense. This era belongs to Usyk alone nobody else. I don't want to hear about Lomachenko's, Canelo or Crawford's. Mere side shows.

    Not trolling - Context to the post, read what I said. Loma fell short of the hype I was seeing be did a lot but he’s hardly what people tried to say he would be, from my experience and I don’t really care what sort of an amateur anyone was.

    His accomplishments to talent ratio maybe didn't really match as well as you'd hope in the pros, but a truly great ambassador to the sport itself. I wish every fighter would conduct themselves how Loma does, don't be a complete moron getting taken advantage of but not a soulless "businessman" either. He tread that line by the end of his career as good as anyone.

    Loma is barely any bigger than Inoue

    Separated by five divisions when this photo was taken

    This content is protected


    Loma been routinely fighting giants who weigh 10-15lbs more than him (20 in Haney's case), often with huge reach advantages too

    But it's seen as incredibly unfair and an obscene size mismatch for poor little Inoue to ever do that once. Twink weighs 8-9lbs more than him max and they both have exactly the same reach.

    Let's be honest, Inoue has fought trash and he's already been dropped heavily x 2 despite the fact he has barely fought any legit punchers. His whiskers are clearly fragile.

    Even Featherfist Fulton rocked his head back to the cheap seats with a right hand when he landed clean.

    Nonito is a big puncher but they're the same size as each other and let's not forget what Rigo and Walters did to him, neither of whom won a single second of a single round vs Loma.

    ''But but Walters weighed 5lbs more than Nonito doe and Loma was a lot heavier than Rigo''

    Newsflash! Loma was routinely giving away way more weight than that and a huge amount of reach too. Inoue's weight bully ass is rehydrating just as much if not more weight in his 4th weight class (5th from the one he started out at) than Loma was in his 1st.

    It took Inoue 11 rounds to prise open the defence of the bang average Paul Butler for goodness sake. Loma would've solved that puzzle in 3 or 4 rounds max.

    Truth be told, Inoue fights in divisions which are about as deep as small puddle and with about as much talent as the women's heavy divisions

    Watch the biblical meltdown if and hopefully when Inoue's hype job ass gets robbed fighting in the US. I can't wait

    Beautiful boxer and expert of the sweet science. He didn't have the pro career that I expected and hoped for, but he gave us a lot of truly sublime moments in the ring. He'll [continue to] be missed.

    Congratulations to the great man he had an excellent career.
    He was a victim of corruption and should have more accolades if not for this.

    As I have mentioned many times before, I am an old foggy who believes that the current ERA of Fighters cannot hold a candle to the older Generations. However, there are some that I feel would have been competitive with the all-time greats if they had had the consistent High level of competition and had fought as often as the old timers.

    Loma is definitely one of them. In my estimation, he is one of the finest Fighters that we have had in our day and what he has accomplished in such a short career is nothing less than astonishing.

    Enjoy retirement, champ!

    Congrats on the career champ! A joy to watch and a real vituoso to watch. Would have been a problem for anyone around those weight classes.

    Lomachenko beat Haney and Salido. He's just a victim of corruption, and people are putting him down without even watching, just because the fight was close. It's a total comedy.

    Captain Caveman Beterbiev fans too. I will literally drive a truck up the collective asses of both fanbases, and the fanbase of that little metrosexual squirt Inoue, park it up and toot the horn like there's no tomorrow if they don't get back in their lanes immediately

    You done gone unlocked the gates of hell when you incur Serge's wrath. I won't just turn the forum against your favs I will turn the entire internet against them
