Lomachenko didn't turn pro until he was almost 30 and had 400+ amatuer fights, he didn't need a development period. :mjlol:

That's why I don't think much of Loma, he spent most of his good years in the ammy's fighting teenagers and shyt.

Amateurs and pros are not the same. You still have to get acclimated to the pro game.

400+ amateur fights is a career in itself. It’s amazing he wasn’t shot after that type of wear and tear.

Nah bro, there's no way you have that much experience ammy's or not and you not ready for the pro game. That is entirely too much experience to not be ready.

Another Gold Medal
:salute: I'll never forget @krackdagawd saying Loma would turn the "Axe Man" into Butterknife Man :laff:


and Loma went ahead and did that :sas1: you are dead on about the majority of this board picking him to win but now it's a trash win. :dead:

The disrespect of boxers online is crazy not thinking much of a guy 2 gold medals and titles in multiple weight classes meanwhile the nikkas dudes prop in here haven't attained that as an ammy or a pro :mjlol:

lol there’s really no comparison in resumes to me and I prefer Crawford a hellavu lot more then I prefer Loma. Nyggas gotta learn how to be objective in these conversations.

Loma only has 16 fights and his resume is pretty much built on quality instead of quantity. There was no development period. He fought for a title in his second fight. Fought Gary Russell in his third fight . Like who does that?:mjlol: He was thrown into the fire.

If you’ve been following his career in real time his fights typically make sense. However, we got a lot of fans nowadays that pull up boxrec, see a couple of names, and then say “he only has 2 good wins.” They don’t know anything about the opponents which I get in those lower weight classes.

The whole conversation is just a joke. Crawford has a better resume? Really when over 20 of his first fights, had a lot of guys with losing records? That’s a better resume?

Facts

Can't disagree with any of this.

I been telling nikkas about being objective for the fukking longest. :snoop:

The difference between Loma and Bud resume is simple. One guy has been in fights that were closer to 50/50 multiple times, where the other guy hasn't. You actually had experts pick against Loma before. Crawford has never experienced that.

i picked against lomachenko many times hahaha

I don’t care for Loma at all, but why discredit what he did? Fights aren’t fought on paper.
No they aren’t but resume talk gets brought up with him all the time and that’s the names he beat at 135. No wonder when he finally fought somebody worth a damn he was gun shy.

What is David Avaneysan supposed to be a "champ" of? These British announcers keep calling him the champion, I guess they gotta hype him. Josh Kelly looks sharp early on tho.
