Which performance were you more impressed with: Tank TKO11 Barrios or Loma TKO9 Nakatani

Loma. Master class performance . Lopez don’t want the smoke.

 

Nakatani is easier to hit than my mailbox, that's why his head was constantly spinning

 

Nakatani almost beat Lopez.

Barrios a bum.

 

Loma

 

Loma won every round and KOed much more proven fighter than Barrios.

 

Loma dominated in spectacular fashion. No comparison.

Coming off a second shoulder surgery and performing like he did against a tough top ten opponent who had physical attributes over Loma such as height, reach, general over all size. An opponent never stopped before. Quite the accomplishment for Loma.

 

I didn't see Davis' bout vs Barrios so can't compare the wins, but as far as Lomachenko's future prospects go, he gave an impressive display last night. He looked sharp, as mobile and quick as ever and his left cross was doing damage. Good win against a brave Nakatani. Loma vs Lopez II would be very interesting.

 

Both guys are easy to hit. Barrios just fought someone worse in Gervonta hence he got hit less. Nakatani also presents more of an offensive threat (pushes forwards a lot more and gets hit more for it) and is much more awkward with his shot selection and direction. He has nice timing on his counters whereas Barrios doesn't seem to counter at all. Either way both fight much the same and present the same physical challenges, Nakatani is more proven at the top level so it's a more credible win, especially since Loma dominated his fight and Gervonta struggled badly in his.

 

When did he fight Lopez?

 

Vintage Loma for sure.

Barrios was a tough matchup for Davis only because of his size. Boxing-wise Tank was figuring him out early on but took over after 5 or 6 rounds.

Loma on the other side looked fantastic and fought a guy who arguably made it very very close with Teo AND was incredibly big and tall. Impressive performance. I didn't expect it but i'm happy about it despite losing money on Naka.

 

Let's see 26-0 19 ko's ,world champion yeah , sure that's it . The resume of a bum? By calling a good fighter like Barrios a bum the value of your opinion is plummeting

 

If you're gonna go by resume, then go by the actual resume and not just the record.

 

They were both midgets in there with naturally bigger men, but i hold Barrios in a much different light than i do Nakatani, so for me Tank bouncing back after a shaky first half and getting the stoppage after 3 knockdowns, was more impressive to me.

 

Loma is a much better fighter than Tank and his resume is way better. So whom was more impressive is relative to how good a fighter performs above what your expectations of them is. Tank impressed but it’s becoming apparent that he is being maneuvered around as someone that is not an elite fighter.
