    Mayweather himself doesn't have anything to do with the scoring, nor did I suggest otherwise.

    Some of his "TBE YO!" fans, however, seem to have a particular distaste for Lomachenko.

    I don't think being a fan of Mayweather is in any way linked to having a distaste of Lomachenko.

    I also don't believe Ali's "Goat Yo!" Fans are bothered about Loma neither.

    C'mon Luf. It's not difficult to see a pattern here on this board. Might be a bit of a generalization, but the majority of flo mos seem to hate Loma, 3G, and Kov. At least with the board noobies and johnny-come-lately's.

    No one is crying Its just unbiased boxing fans telling the corrupt loonies the true story Boxing today is on a par with the WWE Wrestling its Sports ENTERTAINMENT !! & no longer a legitimate contact sport that has two equally talented boxers in an evenly matched contest to decide the winner The decisions are decided BEFORE the "contests" by the $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ involved. The greatest sport in the world riddled with corruption & reduced to just be entertainment

    Mayweather had several "wins" that were more than suspect. In fact that's where the corruption in the sport became clearly obvious. Do the commissions really believe all real boxing fans are ignorant ? They must do because they refuse to try to stop it

    You only have to look at the Olympic Commitee's decision to drop boxing from the next Olympics. I believe that is mainly due to their inability to find honest unbiased officials to provide fair adjudicating. Seems the whole world is corrupt. Yes I know Jones Jr & Mayweather Jr suffered suspect losses but they made their careers out of them They refused to fight outside the US where they knew they'd have home decisions

    Is it possible to like Mayweather and either like or be entirely ambivalent about Lomachenko? Of course. Perhaps you're one of those fans.

    But if you don't see that there's a discernible overlap between a segment of hardcore, Floyd nuthuggers and anti-Loma sentiment, I can't help you.

    I don't see the pattern tbh. I think it is a lazy generalisation.

    Every fight I watch all I want to see is a good fight , honestly adjudicated & with the better man getting the win he deserves. How often does that happen without controversy lately? I get called a HATER because I refuse to respect Floyd, Canelo, Ward etc who I personally think they were protected from losses & have their misdemeanors swept under the carpet while other innocent fighters were punished unfairly. Do the Commissions really believe all boxing fans are ignorant & don't realize whats going on ?? I can understand them thinking that by fans STILL buying the blatantly corrupt fights. I haven't bought a PPV for almost 20 years because its just being taken for a ride when many are blatantly corrupt robberies. If everyone did that they'd have to do something or go broke like the honest ones
