    He's a well preserved and well rested 38. I'm not against this!

    This would be great, and even at 38 Loma still has a lot left in the tank. It would bring me immense joy to see him get his revenge on Teo.

    Strange how he announces it the day his Top Rank contract expires.

    Love Loma. One of my all time favourites. Who would he even fight at 135 though? Unless he’s coming back at 140 of course which IMO would be a silly move given his size (or lack of).

    If he goes down to 130 he might beat Navaratte and the other champs. In his prime easy, this age idk but it’s possible.

    Probably "retired" to get out of the Top Rank contract that was going nowhere

    Loma would die if he fought Navaratte at his age. Yes, there are fighters who fought at advanced ages, but inactivity for an older fighter is a death sentence.

    To be honest, somehow I missed that he actually announced his retirement. His style and the energy it takes may not be suited to a 38 year old but I am wishing him the best.

    Berinchyk boxed his ears off, Loma is 50 times the fighter that Berinchyk is.
