    Also when fighting Loma, opponent's usual success rate with shots landed gets cut in half because of Loma's defence, footwork, and angles in the pocket.

    Guys just settle down, Loma wasn't at his best and he was in first gear, ofc he will be more active next fight.

    Tank Davis will always hit harder and be stronger because he just is. Davis ducked Loma when Loma was at 130. Because Loma was prime. Hes waiting out Loma.

    I said that by the time Loma is 32 or 33 Tank Davis will be a very hard fight for Loma. Loma turns 31 in 2 months. Against a 28 or 29 year old Loma he doesn't have a chance.

    But I made a thread about Davis being dangerous as Loma gets older. Thst and months ago. Mark my words as Loma gets older then Davis is going to be a problem.

    Here's some more food for thought.

    Twink landed way more flush power shots than Loma did (duh, because Pedraza keep walking into them like a moron as opposed to boxing and using his skills like he did tonight) but when Loma did land power shots Pedraza was clearly feeling the weight of them and being hurt by them and at a weight that suits the long-limbed and big framed Pedraza better than 130 did.

    Loma was little hesitant to use the right hook. And he looks so small. Both Linares and Pedraza had arms that stretched forever on him. Still he wins - that is impressive.

    I can just imagine Charlie Z hanging out with the likes of Jim Cornette, Honky Tonk Man and Sheiky Baby. Him and James Ellsworth could even form a tag team! :lol:

    Man, I hate to say this but shoulders take a LONG time to heal. I injured my shoulder doing weights - not even heavy ones either, just overdid a new angle - and its a year of resting it now and its still not right. Loma trains 10x harder than a scrub like me and its hard for the body to recover under strain. :(

    Lomachenko is seriously one of the most high level fighters I have ever seen. He is a boxing savant, pretty much. The one and only flaw I see is overconfidence. He takes a lot of unnecessary shots, and it’s going to eventually cost him. The Linares knockdown could be foreshadowing something. He is extremely intelligent, and needs to let his intelligence override his ego.

    Loma was clearly nowhere near his best tonight and Pedraza is much better than many thought he is and he fought to his strengths tonight as opposed to the Twink fight where he couldn't have employed a dumber game plan if Twink's trainer had devised it for him. I said as much in the RBR for Pedraza vs Twink.

    Then Charlie Z would turn heel on Wilder, nail him with a steel chair and form an alliance with James Ellsworth called 'The Delusionals'.

    Which is basically something Vince Russo would've booked in the circa 2000 WCW. :lol:

    Still think that Shawn Michaels would be able to do a tremendous backflip after being caught by Wilder's uppercut. Even if Shawn now looks like the Bushwackers long lost cousin.

    I'm sure I read somewhere that Tank walks around at something like 155 in between fights.
