    Lomo was knocked down, so was....



    The Sweet Pea.
    Yet, Sweet Pea is regarded by many as one of the best defensive fighters ever .

    Ali was knocked down FOUR TIMES. Banks, Cooper, Frazier and Wepner .

    That's because Top Rank and the idiots at ESPN push Loma like he's some God we never saw before

        Boxing fans these days are wired to say a fighter they dislike was exposed or a fraud so a fighter is barely allowed to lose a round. Look at the Marriaga fight. He was exposed because he had some blood from 2 deliberate headbutts.

          And a guy in MMA can lose 10 fights in a row and still gets respect and TV time.

            Hell one of the GOATs Anderson Silva had 4 loses before he went on an incredible run that put him in that discussion. It;s one of the things that I love about MMA. Fans are far more forgiving of losses.

              --- It's Loma, not the alliteration used in smearing tactics.

              And he fights more aggressively now as a proper pro need be.

              The KD was a sharp balance shot, no big deal at all save for the automatic 2pt deduction. He *****ed that minor mistake in spades.

              It's an honor to watch someone bring the irrefutable technique, ambition, and excitement back into boxing. Long may he reign.

                Now this is what I like to see from history buffs, appriciating new talent for being worthy additions to the art/sport. Not these other insecure fellas who seem to be paranoid and think that a young fighter being recognized as good/great is a direct threat to the legacy of their favorite fighters from the past.

                As for Loma's recent knockdown, this fight is actually a big credit to his legacy because Boxing very much values a fighter being able to get back up and end up winning that fight, and even more so if it's by knockout like he did.
