    I knew this was going to happen, Pedraza is no joke and a tough stylistic match up. That was a top three Loma performance. If I was a boxer there would be no way I read forums, the majority don’t know anything at all about boxing. If I was leaving a legacy it would be discouraging.... for these ******s, these are the boxing fans?

    Doesn't owe an, explanation, Tank is a power puncher with hand speed. If that was him landing those flush counters early in the fight, the fight would have ended soon after. Loma isn't that type pf puncher. It's like asking if Hopkins owes an explanation, because he went 12 with Joppy after Trinidad destroyed him.

    Does a guy coming off shoulder surgery owe us an explanation as to why he was only fairly dominant over a very good fighter as opposed to making him quit on his stool? Is this where we are at with the Loma hype these days? People gave me **** after calling him an ATG after the Linares win, but if this is how good ya'll think he is, where he needs to justify an only fairly dominant performance, it seems like you need to ask yourselves again weather this cat has earned ATG status.

    More than that, I think he owes us an apology, and if you went to see him live he should reimburse your tickets.

    Yes, a written apology to all boxfans and he has to forgo getting paid if has the audacity to lose 2 out of 12 round again in his next unification fight.

    Seriously guys, what does he need to do to make you appreciate what he does in the ring?

    Good grief.

    Not at all. His performance was fine, just not electric.
