    They've got nobody to blame but themselves for why some of these mismatches happen in the first place.

    If there weren't a boatload of people convinced Rigo would win and that Loma was ducking him (an absolutely foolish stance, no matter its popularity), the fight wouldn't have happened.

    Now, some don't like that Loma's getting so much credit for it...but the sad fact is he's only getting this much credit because so many people thought he'd lose or that he'd win only because of size. Even many of the people picking Loma didn't want to admit he was more skilled.

    The reality is that the W was a certainty. More skilled fighters with the styles advantage rarely lose. Throw that in with the other advantages, and a Loma win was a formality. The only thing that was unexpected was that I figured Rigo would get a few good counters in.

    Which brings me back to the million dollar question....with the pick being that obvious, why did so many boxing people not see it?

    Sadly, it's no longer a theory just a conspiracy. They're in fact spraying heavy metals into the atmosphere (Aluminum, Barium, depleted blood cells, etc). In many countries USA/UK/AUS, there are horrific chemtrail assaults.

    They have many motives to deprive Vitamin D (causes many problems), increase Alzheimer's & autism, control the weather.

    Yes they're spraying themselves as well. You can combat the heavy metals in chemtrails through diet. The problem is your typical person eats horrible.

    Try and observe the sun and sky several X's a day for a month. You will see the difference between a Contrail and a Chemtrail. It's hard because most people work in doors. I found out working for UPS when I was outside All day.

    On the up? I didn't get that from his almighty war with Swifty Smith. Sosa was pedestrian pre-Loma, he's pedestrian now.

    Bad? No. But Walters wasn't much of a proven force (except in weight-bullying midgets), and his viability as an opponent had stagnated due to inactivity.


    Well, it would certainly be better than what he's been feasting on. At least the guy is game, has a couple of solid wins at the weight and is in his prime. Top Rank should offer some money to get him. Is Berchelt still with Zanfer? How controlling is GBP's stake in him? If not that, and failing anything else creditable at 130, how about a move up? Go wherever there's something you can do to get credit.


    When I read what?

    I'm not embedded in the paranoid culture a section of the membership seem to live for.

    If you don't think my fav guy is what I think he is, or if you don't think his opposition is what I think it is, I don't feel any need to assail you with tangential strawman ad hominems or suppositions about your private thoughts.

    Is it possible to have a forthright contrary opinion on Loma without being a hater?

    When you read the line about me saying you're hating and sorry but I think you are.

    Exactly, in this fight it wasnt that hard to pick who'll win. It was the typical good big guy vs good small guy. Rigo is incredible though, hope he gets another chance at a belt asap.

    He's not nearly as bad as Loma just made him look, by any stretch. 14 years unbeaten is 14 years unbeaten, after all, and nobody wins 400+ amateur and pro fights by accident.

    If one of the other 126 guys takes that gamble based on what they just saw Loma do, they'll probably learn that the hard way.

    This is the best one to date. Creepy Shawn Newton critiques a vid from some LDBC guy i never heard of but he has Loma 5th in his own division.

    Still could've been even better if the others so called champs wouldnt duck.
    Lomachenko even though with powerfull promoter Bob Arum could still have the fate of GGG, and be avoided like the plague by the other promoters/boxers. I see it happening.
    Loma will have to go up to 147 fairly quick. I want him to step up to 135 in his next fight then in 12 months I hope he'll fight at 140lbs against Mikey. But something tells me Mikey will duck and claim money is not right.

    Don't tell Isal or Dizzy Dizz as much! According to those two, he's exactly the same.

    All very very true. Is'nt lack of vitamin D a cause of some cancers ???? Sad thing is, if you sat down and said this to the general population, they would think your a weirdo, while the foods and tap water they eat and drink are slowly killing them. Its very hard to eat healthy from your average supermarket too.
