Who would you like to see Loma go against next?? I was excited to see Haney... But looks like that has fallen to the way-side. I'd personally like to see Loma vs Valdez at 130, interesting to see if loma can apply enough pressure and angles to tag Valdez who looked solid with his defensive footwork against Berchelt. Battle of the footwork!
1) Tank (not happening) 2) Valdez (pretty sure Valdez won't want to lose his belt so quickly) 3) Haney (pretty sure he doesn't really want it) Lomachenko is stuck. No one's willing to fight him. Teo's ***** ass done ran.
Seems to be a lot of talk from the 4 "big boys" Teo is fighting Kambosos Haney looks to be fighting Linares Garcia has a mandatory challenge against Haney he won't take And Tank... Who knows, last I heard he was trying to make Garcia wait now. Haney vs Garcia Teo vs Loma Tank vs Garcia Loma vs Haney These fights need to happen
I bet even though he's coming off a loss none of them will touch him yet.. because most of them know he hasn't slipped quite enough yet… They are a bunch of b1tches.. you know Loma would fight any of these guys like a shot too.. it's what I always thought with Loma, with the exception of Lopez they are ageing him out.. like Golovkin.
I would love to see him vs any of the 4 young guys. Or a top contender like Commey or Nakatani. I'd really like to see him go back to 130.
I think he wants out of Top Rank personally. for me he should drop back down to 130lbs amd target the winner of Herrig vs Frampton before going at Valdez and Shakur then move back up for the Teo rematch. I think he will stay at 135 however and if so I would be going all out to fight Garcia as I think he takes him out with ease before forcing the Teo rematch. I don’t think it will happen as Garcia will not be allowed to take a risk any time soon. So I would be aiming to make myself mandatory for Teo by fighting Berinchyk or Fortuna. for Loma it’s all about the Teo rematch and I can actually see both guys doing it for big money on matchroom and dazn
I agree The way he was walking Teo down towards the end of the fight showed it was more poor game plan rather than slippage, he'd still be favourite to win against any of the other 3 wannabes and doesn't hold a belt
Yeah. You hear Lopez say before the fight “he’s on his way out”, it’s crystal clear lomas slipped, fans don’t like to admit it an detractors don’t either because they like the sound of Loma being beaten with no excuses. Facts are lomas slipped and his injuries have fast forwarded his slide imo
Lopez looks to be running and hiding, avoiding Loma and the hood young guys at 135. If he moves to 140, it will be one of the most cowardly moves in recent boxing. Tank isn’t interested in fighting real opponents so that’s not happening. Garcia is still young and won’t be allowed to fight Loma. Haney will not be allowed for the same reason, despite what he says. I’d like to see Valdez but it looks like Loma wants to stay at 135 for a while and while that fight is interesting to fight fans, I suspect the casual fans will not make it a bit draw financially. Becaise Lopez refused the rematch, Loma is in a tough spot. Stevenson would be fun but I don’t see that fight happening. Teo is my first choice but Stevenson would be my second because he’s a fast, technical fighter and it would be an entertaining fight. Tank would actually be my first choice because it would be fun to see him get a beating but he only fights bums these days so it’s pointless to even speculate.
I wouldn't be surprised if Loma retires or only fights once more. He's getting old and he took the loss pretty badly too.
