    As long as people debate with well thought out breakdowns and not pure "cuban roadrunner cuban glass" nonsense I'm happy to debate with anyone just no trolls plz. That's what a forum is for

    Loma has wins over Selimov (2015 WC Silver), Toledo (2X WC Silver), Oscar Valdez (very good prospect), Jose Ramirez (very good prospect), Felix Verdejo (very good prospect), Robson Conceicao (2016 Olympic Gold winner).

    Loma has better wins.

    Yes he has good wins for sure, but mekhonstev was a great win he was olympic champion and world aiba heavyweight champ undefeated pro as well, most of cruz opponents are still amateur, he also has a 50-43 win over mammadov who's a 6 6 former heavyweight medalist, cruz gave him a couple of counts I think he might have stopped him as well, and joe ward was a prodigy here in ireland easily beat by cruz,imo selimov edged out loma in wsb and toledo in london but toledo in 2011 was a massive win the fight was still v close despite the kd

    WOuld u not agree as well apart from toledo in 11, adilbek is a better win than anyone lomas fought? He's dominated buatsi who I think will makes waves as a pro and also beaten gvodyk who's a top pro right now, adilbek would be way more talented and technical than valdez or verdejo better skills from kazak program

    Brilliant promoter and a smart guy who cut his teeth as a fighter before becoming a promoter. Knows the sport, has good connections and has a great stable.
    Narimatsu will be a good pro, but maybe good ain't great....

    Corruption still plagues Olympic boxing.. Some really awful judging. At least Joyce has won his matches clean though. But he's definitely benefited from some of those unjust decisions. Nistor and Hrgovic were both robbed......

    Pro box just means the money..


    Amateur boxing is worldwide..


    It's not "amateur" like a rank.. and Buster will always beat Mike twice..
