Loma is a Euro, most Euro's fold once things actually get rough and physical and they can't just stay at range and try to potshot you.

Nahh, there is no pattern like that to this whole continent.

Derevyanchenko, Baranchyk, Povetkin, Eubank, Fury, Beterbiev, Gvozdyk, Jack, Papin, Taylor etc.
just from the top of my head, European fighters who in the last few years have been featured in rough fights whether all-action fights or they just had to endure punishment and they didn't mentally fold.

I thought by 2020 we are over with the "Euro this and that" phase

Bro, you're posting like Loma was in his teens or very early 20's when he left the Ammy's at a higher weight. He was grown man & in his prime at 25 his pro debut that melted down to fight at the lower weights (there's nothing wrong with that either).

I don't know if you're intentionally coming off that way but it's like a backhanded compliment toward Lopez in both your posts but I could be misinterpreting

To me & many others it all came down to game plan & execution & Lopez was not only the better fighter but he was better prepared. It's painfully obvious Loma & his team underestimated Lopez's IQ, composure, but more importantly his speed & explosiveness. Not just punching power but Teo's ability to close the gap in an instant & get his shots off. He turned Loma into Danny Swift Garcia & kept his hands in his pockets for most of the night lol

Yeah, it wasn’t just the power or that Teo is bigger. It was that Teo is probably faster than Loma. They really underestimated Lopez. If Loma opens up in round 3 or 4 he probably gets knocked out. shyt, he was almost outta there in the 12th.

Derevyanchenko didn't win. Eubank is meh. Fury struggles against bums on a regular basis, Gvozdyk quit, Josh Taylor was getting walked down by little Regis Prograis. Bunch of weak ass nikkas man.

I’m going to watch the fight with “Gary russel box like he’s hitting mitts” goggles on. All of his punches was short.

I blame @patscorpio. He got you thinking that nikka was ever good. fukk you pat from the bottom of my heart:laff:

Just rewatched the fight and the 117-111/116-112 cards were perfectly reasonable, feel like folks were giving Loma extra credit for those 2nd half rounds because he didn't do shyt earlier and his mystique. Even when Loma was getting off cuz Lopez started tiring Lopez was still sending heat back.
