    Who has Loma actually beat though?
    Walters had been out the ring for a year and his last fight before that was a draw against Sosa. He was always a powerhouse not an elite boxer.
    Linares dropped Loma and this is the same Linares who got his ass beat up by Kevin Mitchell and Campbell should've got the decision against.
    Rigo fought 3 rounds in 3 years and moved up way above his weight to fight Loma.
    Salido bullied his ass, his best win is Gary Russell jr.

    An aged Pedraza took rounds off Loma in a competitive fight, we say what Tank did to a fresher and unbeaten Pedraza.

    Loma is p4p one of the best, but to put him up there with the greatest ever already like many are doing is beyond ridiculous.

    Prime PBF would've beat him, and I'm calling it now - Tank in 2020 beats Loma.

    What's it with trolls and not being able to count? Be it 12 rounds or 10 seconds, counting seems a real issue...

    Pedraza took as many rounds off of Tank in 7 rounds as he did off Loma over 12 in fairness (2 each, on my card). Yeah, Tank stopped him but Tank didn't just walk through him in some demolition job. The 5th round in particular showed that.

    Like we can really nitpick and dissect resumes to discredit them easily enough. Linares or GRJ are his best wins. Linares is a little bigger so that win has more stock. He's a beautiful boxer offensively but is prone to fragility at times. In no world should Campbell have got the nod over Linares, that's a terrible call. But even if he did deserve it, Loma just beat Campbell, so I'm not sure what the point is there exactly. Walters is a legit win, the Sosa fight should not have been a draw. The Rigo fight shouldn't really count for much, he was way too small.

    Prime PBF likely does beat him. People forget how insane his reach is and how well he can use it. Tank doesn't beat him in 2020 because Tank won't be fighting him in 2020. He hasn't fought a live body since Pedraza.

    Did he also mention Edwards being robbed of a KO3 win over Aguilar by any chance?! :lol:

    Loma won easily and fought well but didn't live up to the pre fight hyperbole.

    Shades of Ali, Robinson, Leonard and Duran combined if you were to believe the Sky bots
