    Would you be more impressed with Loma if he hadn’t challenged for a title in his second pro fight against Salido and if he had avoided Lopez? He’d still be undefeated that way.

    I am impressed with Loma! What makes you think I am not. He is impressive and a great fighter I just don’t think he is the second coming of Jesus Christ as some want to make out. Yes I am not a Lomasexual.

    I'm gone now. Obviously you quoted me and still don't understand my position. So I'm back to the lounge. Good luck.

    It’s the mentality of Floyd nut-huggers. Dem fighters gots to protect dat 0 at all cost. This includes avoiding any legit opponents. Why do you think Tank has to drag up little guys and doesn’t have a legit opponent on the horizon. This is a 27 year old fighter who has to clout chase on Twitter but he never fights the big names he has beefs with. Still milking the Pedrazza fight as he fights bums. Only chumps fall for the BS. Lucky for Tank there is no shortage of morons who fall for this fraud.

    Guys like Olu aren’t boxing fans. They are trash talking idiots who live vicariously through the guys they cheer for. They don’t want to see Tank fight anyone who has a talent, anyone who can give fans a good fight. This would be too risky. Instead, they cheer when their hero fights no hope smaller guys and old guys. Gots to protect that zero!

    Let’s try by a comparison
    Loma is a “Great” fighter because he has the greatest Resume in the division.

    if you compare resumes of Loma vs Tank it is easy to see that the level of competition & skill of Tank Davis’s opposition has truly NOT been that “great. “

    Leo Santa Cruz is his best Scalp who is skilled, but not skilled enough to overcome the size / power disparity as he is not a lightweight.

    He's not great but there's not many great fighters in boxing currently.

    They're all great. They have all made significant accomplishments in the sport. Some have rising stock, some declining, but even in their decline their accomplishments cannot be erased.

    I'd filter that down to Usyk, Canelo, Crawford, GGG and Gonzalez.
