    Hernandez pressed the action so that entitles him to the victory? Lol what about clean punches landed? Affective Aggression? Ring Generalship? Defense?

    The last time I checked "pressing the action" isn't scoring criteria. It looks to me that you let a crowds boos, affect your reasoning.

    He was amazing. He didnot fold and his stamina is top notch.
    I akin this to a brilliant student second days in the office. A less brilliant co worker will teach him a lesson in office politics and dirtiness.
    But it's just a matter of time before this brilliant student catch up and turn the table and that's what Loma did in his following fights.

    Mayweather never had to avenge anything, but he did give two guys chances to avenge him. Just sayin'.

    Lomachenko won, but the judges gave a gift of Salido who cheated all night with low blows, holding, head butting, hitting after the bell, hitting on the break, hitting behind the head, hitting on the hip, etc. Lawrence Cole was the very corrupt and idiot refere, the judges were for Salido also, this was in Texas, at least one judge called it right, split decision, but Lomachenko won the fight. Lomachenko almost had Salido out in the last round. I remember that Void was not where near Lomachenko's lever in his second pro fight............

    Lomachenko doesnt lace Mayweathers boots. lets see what hes achieved after 30 fights then compare. Right now Mayweather is in a league of his own.

    No such thing as avenging a loss, wining a rematch doesn't take the original loss away. But yes he will go on to be thought of as better then mayweather

    Not to disparage the fellow, but that is one of the most puzzling posts I've read anywhere. Even after breaking his left hand midway and having to box southpaw for much of the remainder of the fight, Floyd took at least half of the remaining rounds away from him. And that was after winning the first half of the fight. How Hernandez comes out on top in that scenario, I don't know.

    Far from a discredit, that one's a testament to his ingenuity and know-how, if anything. Boxing with one paw, switching off the cuff, he was endlessly creative to control rounds with his right glove and (heh) Matrix angles, jabbing and parrying, even fighting southpaw in the pocket in short bursts to rip off single-handed uppercut/hook combos, only very occasionally throwing the damaged hand as a slapping version of a left cross to the body. Very unruffled, professional stuff.

    I'd say we won't know exactly how much Loma caught up until he faces a comparable situation, but - that is a really cool analogy. Good work.

    So, according to your logic a fighter cannot be great unless he is fighting in multiple weight classes. That's not how it works.
