    Now we know he went in with problems and there was no bull**** excuses from him, do you think this is the end of the Matrix or can he regain form prior to his first shoulder problem or is this it ??

    I think Lomachenko can and will beat anyone that isn't a massive puncher. And he'd beat Lopez in a rematch.

    If Lomo fought with a torn up shoulder, it explains the performance. Not to take the win away from Lopez, he deserved that.

    As a general rule, I don't really buy injury excuses when the guy claiming to be injured is also fighting their toughest opponent. It happens too often.

    I'm saying the injury might exist, but it rarely explains the outcome.

    And I don't buy that it created the outcome. The injury was treated prior to the fight and he used both arms in the fight. It reminds me of Pac against Floyd.

    Treated prior to the fight, okay? Injured during the fight, yes. The surgery was needed. Like I said Lopez won fair in square by 2 rounds on my card. Lomo didn't look like himself, and now we know why.

    That's incorrect and you're just fanboying Ukrainians, per usual.

    The injury was known before the fight, treated, Loma elected to fight, and he used both hands during the fight.

    He was also fighting his most difficult opponent to date.

    Loma trying to save face

    That kind of "injury" doesn't develop over the span of a fight

    He has been nursing that for probably well over 12 months

    Now using this as an opportunity to get it operated on.

    Even a minor shoulder problem can make you struggle to lift your arm, let alone be able to fight for 12 rounds. Excuses.

    With such injury even after a successful operation, just like Manny, they would never have the same 100% output. I would like him and Lopez to move forward without rematching each other as it would only potentially expose them more to study. Have other possible opponent camps work hard for themselves.
