    Loma is declining. He's slowing down and getting hit more.
    Watch the Martinez fight, the difference is there.
    Crolla is of a similar level to what Martinez was so maybe he will prove me wrong by looking invincible again but I doubt it.
    His style is a youthful one

    No one is bashing Mayweather lol. I'm not praising Mcgregor's performance. Reach and size are a significant factor. Mayweather got hit doing the pull counter because of the reach difference. Facts are you simply can't box the same way against a taller boxer vs a shorter boxer. If Mayweather fought consistently taller individuals with 74-80" reach he wouldn't have turned into the defensive Money May, but he would have to fight PBF style.

    The difference between Loma's 65 inches and Floyd's 72 inch reach is 7 inches. At Loma's weight class 70 inch reach isn't unusual. This is like if Floyd fought someone with 77 inch reach. You simply can't box the same way against someone with much longer reach, and this is why Loma can't adopt a similar defensive style as Floyd.
    The only way it would work against much longer fighters is if you had one punch KO power.

    The punch from Linares tamed him? Lomachenko got back up on steady legs, won the rest of the round then knocked the guy out a few rounds later. That is what getting tamed means to you?

    Yeah, basically a balance knockdown where he went straight back to work after.

    That was just an excuse in my opinion he had no injury against Castillo 1 but NSAC changed their rules to allow his xylocaine which is illegal everywhere else

    lol! . Both those fights were made by Bob Arum when he controlled FlIVds career. The minute FlIVd left Uncle Bob he cherry picked the rest of his career. Even that Oscar fight was a cherry pick. Oscar was shot to pieces but still had a bankable name. Stop the nonsense! FlIVd isn't letting his ward anywhere near Loma. Facts!

    Lol no, Fury tamed Wilder and also dominated before and after he got knocked down. Why would you ask that stupid question, makes no sense. I assume you can't read properly and thought I said something else.
