    He is a very good, tricky fighter who can not sustain his style over 12 rounds.

    All his fights are the same slow start then he rallies and gives up the 12th. Its hard enough to bag rounds fighting in bursts as it is.

        I did give credit but after that post of Loma on his twitter he can stick that credit up his ass fake ****** clown. Trying to be like Mayweather when he doesn’t have the skill or charisma people just won’t watch him cuz his style is boring as it is.

I did have Lomachenko narrowly losing, but I LOL’ed that Lomachenko came in to the pros, 1 fight in somehow got gifted a world title shot. Was happy the veteran pulled some veteran moves on him.

          But admittedly, while Salido did win, he absolutely won by cheating the hell out of boxing. Big time.

          While I do hate all the excuses that Lomachenko fans had for his loss to Lopez, this is absolutely a fight he won (Haney). And he absolutely got robbed. And I can admit that, even though I predicted Haney would win.

          Unfortunately Loma fanboys basically look like the girl who cried wolf. They pretty much wasted their “robbery” cards on Salido and Lopez, when it wasn’t warranted. So I understand Lomachenko haters calling out Loma fans for using the robbery card a third time. Only this time, they are finally right with the robbery claim.
          Funnily enough, I thought Salido got jobbed against Martinez and Vargas. I didn't like his low blows, but he was a really fun fighter with a ton of inside skills. Wasn't 130 stacked a few years ago? Salido, Roman, Berchelt, Miura, Vargas, Pedraza, Corrales, Loma, Sosa, Walters...now it's kind of a wasteland, isn't it? 130 is generally one of my favorite divisions, so it makes me kinda sad. At least we have Navarette-Valdez.

          But to the topic at hand, I had the Salido fight a draw and a lot of people had the Lopez fight a draw or 7-5. So seeing the official scorecards, especially 11-1, I mean...and then there was the Russell fight, where he had to win 10 or 11 rounds for a MD. And then one judge had Linares beating him. He hasn't had great luck at all with the scorecards. And now the thing with Haney. Haney won't do a rematch for a fight everyone knows he lost (I hope I am wrong), Salido refused. Lopez didn't duck a rematch, he just got COVID and fell apart.

            Well Floyd don't get no credit because HE chose to cherrypick mainly c fighters and fighters out of their prime and call himself tbe, and nobody's gonna give this kid a ton of credit for looking like he lost to a faded great and thanking the judges for helping him out.

            It's simple he will eventually get props if he consistently beats the best guys in their prime, or he could go the Floyd cherrypick/pay to see him lose, make a lot of money, but no credit route. It's up to him.

                He deserves credit.

                He took a risky fight and albeit struggled he won a razor close fight.

                The robbery talk is silly. There’s no way Loma won 7 CLEAR rounds.

                  So you’re telling me Loma won 7 clear rounds?

                  If so, which ones?

                      The writings on the wall for the kid. He can't punch, wobbly chin, uncoordinated.

                      Once he fights people his size he'll get found out.

                      He's good but he'll never be great.
