Lomachenko without a doubt. Loma is a future HOF fighter and Teo beating him at that age is impressive. I had a feeling Teo would shock Taylor even though I was favoring Taylor.
To play devil's advocate. Teo looked way better against Taylor though. Against Loma, a lot of rounds Loma lost is because he was scared of Teo's power and didn't want to commit, but Teo would land it by landing a couple of more shots. Teo only looked really impressive in the 12th. Against Taylor, he made this dude look like a novice and stumbling around the ring like a helpless damsel in distress. Also Taylor has the size advantage over Teo, while Teo had a size advantage over Loma.
Styles make fights though. Loma is smaller but still a much more skilled, dynamic fighter than Taylor. Teo did his thing and won some rounds big against Loma despite being a more competitive fight than Taylor. Don't get me wrong I think Teo's performance against Taylor was his sharpest performance and that was also a great win given how highly Taylor was ranked at 140 but I rate Loma higher as a fighter therefore that win was better IMO.
Loma was the better win. Lopez was actually in with a top P4P fighter, even if a faded one, Taylor while a very good fighter was never P4P material. Loma showed late in the fight he could adapt and turn the fight his way, only for Teo to adapt himself in the last round to win the round on all 3 judges scorecards. Taylor in contrast was never able to adjust or adapt to the tactics of Lopez, getting dominated down the stretch. So has to be Loma, he simply was the better, more skilled, more intelligent fighter and Lopez had to dig deeper. While he was on cruise control for much of the Taylor fight, wasn't required to up his level or forced to adapt much if at all.
He looked far better against Taylor, he absolutely dominated that fight. Once Loma actually started fighting, Teo looked very precarious. Loma ran out of rounds...............Teo could've looked like that 20 rounds in against Taylor
He made both Loma and Taylor look bad.Loma looked petrified in the first 7 round made a late rally though credit to him.Taylor gotta respect he tried to fight like a man.Of course he is the bigger man.But was repelled back because of the counters and power.I thought Teo boxed JT where as in the Loma fight he was the aggressive come forward.Loma had that counter puncher advantage.Remember counterers have the stylistic advantage but Teo had Loma scared it was over red rover right then and there.
He deserved a loss against midget Loma having his head pinged around in the latter rounds. He fought inactive, coming off injury Taylor and won 7-5, or 8-4 tops (no it wasn’t more than this you casuals).
Haney copied the blue printz.The more i think about it.Haney basically copied Teo who was landing hellacious body shots successfully in the earlier rounds against Loma.I have no doubt haneys camp took notes.That it made scuured to come in the kill zone and throw.Haney and Teo gotta get it on to see who is the real one.
Lomachenko by far he was P4P number 2 when Lopez beat him and in good form in prior fights. Taylor had looked bad in his last outing vs Catterall, also the coupled with the inactivity. So overall Lomachenko by quite some margin.
