    Yep. You have to know when not to be cocky.

    When Calzaghe fought Kessler, he wasn't running in all the time. Just like when Golovkin fought Lemieux.

    There are times for more caution.

    Got caught square coming in, flash KD. Still a KD is a KD, there's nothing to take away other than that Loma wasn't really in trouble or hurt like you'd like to portray.

    It was a real KD.

    He was vertical again in under 2 seconds.

    He was not hurt.

    At 138, he won 6 of the 9 completed rounds against the considerably bigger (155) man, a man who was a 3 wt champion, and he forced his fifth opponent in a row to quit.


    O, did I say it was a real KD.

    Yes .

    That it was.

    Henry Cooper had a real KD against the greatest .

    For all that mattered. :sisi1

    Why? He can unify at 135 then test the waters at Jr Welter.

    He had like 10 seconds left of the round before he could spend a whole minute recouping, so who truly knows how bad he felt it.

    The guy looked like a dwarf in there regardless.

    No way he’s too small giving up too many advantages
    He need to stay at 130

    Cant stand this mentality. Fans just want fighters pushed and pushed until they get beaten by guys they have no business even being in the ring with.

    Loma is clearly pushing it at 135 and him going to 140 is asinine and stupidly asking for an unwarrented loss.

    That's weak and complacent thinking.

    Tell that to great fighters like DLH, Pac, Floyd, Marquez, Jones.....(list goes on and on).

    Great fighters don't like to play it safe, that's part of what makes them great.
