Re: Tony Yoka upset

I never saw a fighter being more passive in a fight in my life. I will give Bakole some credit, he has better hand speed than I thought he would have and overall technique is better than I thought. He definitely is the better of the two. But Bakole walked forward hands around his waist the entire fi...

Re: Shakur Stevenson vs. Oscar Valdez | ESPN - April 30, 2022

A landed punch that causes the fighter to go down is a knockdown. Whether he hit the gloves or not doesn't matter. I assumed that was the rule too - beating someone to the canvas with blocked shots should count. so, let's say dudes throw punches at the same time, one guy clips the others guys exten...

a punch that hit the gloves isnt a connect
It is if it also hits the head.

Re: Round-by-Round: Teofimo Lopez vs. George Kambosos Jr. - November 27, 2021

Inch and a half shorter. Side by side at the face off Kambo did look a bit taller. Taylor is a couple taller. Prograis is the same as Lopez, but I think Reggie is much stronger. That measly 5 pounds is nothing really. Yes, he may be shorter but he looks thicker built. I know how this works, I was a...

Re: Shows you how overrated Loma was.

As I said, exactly zero times in that round was Loma in any danger of being stopped or knocked down.

Someone here is just a clear Loma hater and can't even watch any of his fights objectively to save his life.

I think Canelo is the only all-time great right now. Some of the others mentioned here could make the list if they can win some more big fights. Some of these really young guys have no business being mentioned at this point. Many a young stud prospect or even young champ has failed to move beyond th...

Re: Round-by-Round: Teofimo Lopez vs. George Kambosos Jr. - November 27, 2021

He isn't that big either. Kambosos is bigger. Lightweight is fine for a guy his size. He would be up against it with Taylor in height and reach. Teo looked noticeably bigger than Kam to me. Inch and a half shorter. Side by side at the face off Kambo did look a bit taller. Taylor is a couple taller....

Re: Round-by-Round: Teofimo Lopez vs. George Kambosos Jr. - November 27, 2021

The team, the dad, they have to go. And bring in a nutritionist. He needs to stay at LW. The SLW boys are too big for him. Prograis would have folded him, and you need to get past Reggie to get to Josh. Yeah, I think he doesn't do well up a weight either. The best thing would be like you said get t...

Re: Round-by-Round: Teofimo Lopez vs. George Kambosos Jr. - November 27, 2021

Lopez is only 24. He can still have a great career. But, that won’t happen with his current team intact. His father has got to go. His training has got to change. He needs to mature mentally. If he thinks that he is going to jump up and “takeover” 140 after last night, he is seriously delusional. A...

Re: kambo vs loma

If we see Loma at his top and doesn't fight Kam the way he did Teo then I pick Loma in a close one.

However, Kam has shown he can hang with anyone. I don't think I would be putting any money on this fight unless odds were really too good to pass up on one side or the other.

Re: Shows you how overrated Loma was.

Loma's window is getting tight. He's going to be 34 pretty soon so I think he needs to get on it and be more active before he's too old to be a threat anymore. He probably has 3-4 fights left, but he has to win. If he loses that might be the end of Loma as a contender just because he might be 38 bef...

Re: Shows you how overrated Loma was.

No, I am not a Lomassiah hater. I made the nickname Lomassiah up as a result of the blind allegiance of his rabid fanbase. Lomassiah was hurt in the 12th round. Teo won the fight with superior tactics and digging deep and winning the 12th round. You can always go back and watch round 12. This time ...

Re: Shows you how overrated Loma was.

I disagree. Lomassiah was close to going down. One more good clean shot could have done it. If he went down, Teo could have finished him. I didn't see Loma in any danger of going down in that fight myself. I would suggest your opinions on this are a little tained as you seem like a pretty rabid Lom...

Do they sign new contracts or something? Teo signed a new contract with high minimum Purse with Arum Went to purse bids so no mandatory rematch. Flop over doesn't want any more of Kambosos. Kam offered to do it again and the Flop over turned his head. Yeah, Kam did offer a rematch and Teo basically...

Teo had to think.

Loma lost that fight more than Teo won it.
That's the way I saw it too which is why I'm not surprised Teo's reign was so short. I think if there was a rematch, Loma wins.
