    Here’s Floyd having a nervous breakdown when asked when Davis will fight Loma.

    Tank needs to move to 135 first have a fight there and then fight Loma.

    I like Davis as a fighter but I'm not sure he fancies it .. Mayweather definitely doesn't want it.. Not til lomas bout 40

    Shame cos it'd be a class fight ...regardless of outcome...

    Lomachenko vs Davis... Winner vs berchelt

    It was the same Rigo. Loma was just a much better opponent than Doniare.

    I'd rather see the fight next year.

    Tank needs to move to 135 and get his activity level back on track. It's tough to catch up to a guy who's more experienced if you're not fighting more frequently than he is.

    Tank and Loma have both fought five times since 2017, and Loma's April fight will bring him to six.

    For a young dude who has weight issues between fights, that level of activity is the worst thing for him. I'd love to see how good Tank could be if he separated himself from Broner, really gave boxing 100 percent like Floyd did, and stayed in the ring more.

    As it is, his prime is being compromised.

    HE's going to wait until Loma looks vulnerable. Just as his mentor did....

    Loma has already looked vulnerable he lost to Salido remember? He was also dropped by Linares and didn't look great against Pedraza.

    If you think Loma looks vulnerable...then that's all on you Pimp. I am realistic here. I don't expect every top fighter to look like SRL every single fight out.

    That was his second pro fight you dimwit.

    Salido cheated on the scales as well and was low blowing Loma left and right with a corrupt official allowing it.

    Not even close to the same Rigo that beat Donaire four years prior

    It wasn't really his 2nd pro fight now was it? He fought in the WSB 6 times under pro rules and scoring.

    He had pro fights in the WSB his 2nd pro fight thing is overblown it was really his 8th fight when he fought Salido. Even still it was impressive that he fought him when he did and ran him close.
