    You must be a big fan of mediocrity.

    He got tatooed and went down. He was out of the fight right off the bat. Game as hell but outclassed

    Definitely not a true KD, more like a flash knockdown. Could have been a slip, there was water on the canvas too. But Lomachenko definitely lost his "Aura of invincibility" tonight.. He can get hit, and he's beatable, unlike what his nuthugger fans think

    No... youre just a typical simpleton with no actual grasp on the sport you watch. Its ok... youre not alone.

    You want to see fighters abandon their true greatness so they can continue to move up until they finally fight guys too big to beat, while justifying it by using precedences you dont actually understand.

    There could have been some of that, or he could have just been cautious to avoid making another mistake like the one that led to the knockdown.

    That said, it was absolutely a legit knockdown, and it unquestionably did make Loma change things up for a round or so. He stopped throwing big combinations and his footwork seemed a bit more about keeping distance than creating fancy angles for the next round.

    I just don't get why Loma sometimes gets lazy with his defense.. does he not think that his opponents punches can hurt him?? I feel like if TANK puts together a combo, he can legitimately hurt Vasiliy

    You quickly resorted to insults which only proves my point about how mentally weak you are.


    And if you really think Loma can't compete with the guys at 140 then

    becomes highly ironic.

    I wasnt insulting you as much as I was making an accurate assesment of what kind of fan you are. Majority of boxing fans dont really know what they are watching. Its evident through multiple verification methods, and majority also want fighters to continue moving up even when its obvious they shouldnt.

    As for your second line, as with your comprehension, your skills of assesment are also fairly poor. And the assumptions you make because of it are equally inaccurate.

    Nowhere did I say I dont think Loma can compete with the fighters at 140.

    What I am saying, is that he shouldnt go to 140 because while he can indeed compete and even win some, he will also lose to fighters he has no business losing to because he shouldnt be at the weight in the first place.

    But who cares... as long as fans get to see just how big a guy needs to be in order beat him, right?

    You're clueless as to what kind of fan I am and now simply too embarrassed to admit you're wrong about this whole argument. You're just tap-dancing now.



    My point was that he could compete and more than likely win a title at that weight so he should go for it. You basically just admitted it, so just STFU and stop making a fool of yourself. LOL

    :lol: If you only knew. You havent a grasp on any aspect of this conversation :lol: You just showed you dont even know what we are disagreeing on. I just dont have the time nor inclination to break it down for you. But its borderline comical.

    Take care.

    That score was bad. Linares won 2-3 rounds. Linares must be kicking himself though, I think he could have continued but thought he was losing 7-2 or 6-3, and didn't think he could stop Loma to win. He might have got the robbery if he put up an effort during the last 3 rounds.

    Taking a knee already?

    So you're clueless, and gutless.

    See ya.
