    It's the only way they are going to escape the uncomfortable feeling of being surrounded.

    Its the pressure, the angles and the movement.

    You know when one of your mates is messing about in real life pretending to give you a dig, but actually doesnt. It puts you on edge and you think too much and over compensate expecting them to do it at some point. It messes with heads, and Loma seems to be a master at it. Headfhuck.

    Being hopelessly outclassed. Who would of thought Walters and Rigo would quit? Not me,it must be out of sheer frustration where what normally works for you is just totally neutralized by Loma leaving you bewildered and confused with no answers. Lomachenko is the Picasso of pugilism

    This. Body punches don't have to be liver shots or hooks to the solar plexus to be effective. After getting his ribs battered and bruised for so long, he just couldn't take it anymore.

    This. Still not impressed with Loma. Handpicking inactive fighters like Walters or dragging up midgets like Rigo doesn't say much. If he moves up to 135 and dominates the division like Crawford did at 140 then he'd have a legit claim for top 5 p4p, but for now besides Salido and Roman Martinez his competition has been overrated.

    His beautiful looks makes men question their own sexuality, making them confused in the ring :deal:

    I would think it probably has something to do with the fact he's incredibly talented and possesses an extremely high ring IQ.

    It's the frustration of not being able to hit Lomachenko, his punches come from nowhere, he is there, then he is somewhere else, very confusing. Sosa's corner did throw in the towel..................

    Probably this.

    It's one thing getting beaten up while you're landing your own and at least giving an account of yourself. It's another when your best efforts leave you feeling foolish and you're getting peppered all night. I don't think it's so much the damage Loma inflicts as the realisation that "there's no way on earth I can possibly beat this guy and they're laughing at me."

    When you can't land, but he's landing at will, with volume, whilst at the same time looking so relaxed that it looks like he's still only on gear 2. It's hopelessness.

    Guys like Pac use to dominate with volume and angles too, but he got hit back which would give his opponents encouragement. Floyd was unhittable, but he wasn't hitting you as often and you think if I can just get lucky. Loma is a combination of both of those.
