fukk it...I'm all in.


Official Loma stan

Walters was outclassed the moment the bell ramg

I think that last night is the EXACT reason why casual combat fans use the argument that currently MMA>>>>>>>boxing. Walters basically said fukk it

 

[reservoirdogs]

tbf both of them stopped
I didn't understand that scene

 

[mson]

axe man clearly took a dive, rob arum strikes again, I'm not watching any more fights for that top rank belt

Thought crossed my mind. My man just said fukk it

I have this post interview on repeat. This shyt is unreal.

I initially thought he threw the fight at first, but you can't make this type of shyt up.

He was so quick to tell the ref he wanted to quit, with no shame. Most fighters at least show hesitation or shame. He proceeds to give us this classic interview on his inactivity. He ruined his career here.

His own corner was like

no not because of this

they only say it cause of the matchmaking but that roots in the age difference between the two combat sports so it's kinda stupid to blame boxing as a whole for being like it is...

Let us see how the MMA landscape will look like 70-80 years later... or maybe even 20 years later
It's easy for a younger sport to be more unified and transparent...
If any other organization in MMA can break the obvious #1 role and dominancy of the UFC then MMA fans will be probably eve more fukked than us, boxing fans. Basically the glue which stick MMA together is the clear hierarchy between promoters, channels, etc... that's why their best fight the best... cause all the best are in the same league under the same channel and promoter. The moment when someone breaks this clear hierarchy they gonna be fukked over imo...

I was still a little skeptical about Loma especially cause of his defense, but last night he proved that it's really top notch and that he isn't an Amir Khan 2.0 (ok, I didn't even really think that but now he pretty much proved).

His style reminds me of Pacquiao with the basically offensive but not exactly pressuring mindset with the flurries and the angles... He seems to be more defensively responsible and less savage though. He isn't THAT offensive minded, but as I said as far as his style goes he reminds me of Pac.

We still don't know how good is his chin and it's a good question when we will get to know that cause if Walters couldn't really land on him then idk who would be able to do so in 130. Tevin Farmer maybe but he isn't a big puncher...

Only matchups what make some sense for Loma in 130 after beating Walters are the champions cause of the belts and Farmer. Salido maybe if he wants "revenge" on his loss.
I think he would beat Vargas easily.
Pedraza a little harder than Vargas cause he is awkward but he would beat Pedraza too.
He'd beat Corrales too but that's a fight I would rather watch than against Vargas cause Corrales has a dark horse factor yet we still don't know that much about the guy.

He would beat Sosa and Fortuna too I think.

I'd watch Farmer vs Loma, probably that's what I would watch the most from 130 now. Farmer (or Corrales maybe) would be the biggest remaining challenge for him in 130, if he beats him he could go to 135. If he isn't too small for that. I think he could handle one more weightclass, not sure abut 140 though...

Anyone knows how much he blows up on fight nights?

Nicholas Walters disgraced himself, his team, and his sport by quitting for no other reason except "Hey, I was losing"

There's no reason he should be put in position to fight on TV again after this. Sad SAD and disappointing finish to a promising career.

Loma v Pac at 140 is horse shyt. Crawford is RIGHT there, if either man wants funk. With that said, Loma said he wants Francisco Vargas next. That's a damn great idea.

Make Salido face Miura and earn his mandatory shot. Now, in the event that Vargas don't want drama, make him rematch Salido or Miura and recreate another FOTY for early '17.

Loma v Berchelt in the meantime if he can't get another unification bout popping.

With that said, 135 is also an option if making 130 is a problem.

I can't think of any killers at 135...so WBO Champ Terry Flanagan better start getting ready...

Can't believe some dudes in there had Walters winning more than one round
Had it 70-64 by round 7 with R6 being a 10-10 because Loma slowed down and Axemon managed to land a several nice left hooks to Loma's body.

tbf both of them stopped
I didn't understand that scene

Walters took a step back while Loma stood his ground. That may be the symbolism the FB post was trying to tell.

 

[torcher]

I didn't expect the corner to stop it but Loma was having his way with Walters. Loma was hurting him in round 7 and IMO, would've knocked him out had it gone on. No shame in knowing when you're outmatched.

Nah man it aint no excuse for that shyt. You can make a case last week that Kovalev won the 1st 6 rounds of that fight last week and hurt and knocked down Ward but did Ward quit? No he fought back and made it a fight. Even though I thought Nic was bein outclassed and I didnt give him not 1 round he wasnt takin a beatin or bein hit clean at all besides that 7th round. He's a elite fighter in that division wit big punchin power you dont quit like that

 

[mr. smoke weed]

Lmao what a joke. I think he was trying to fukk over Bob somehow??? But ended up likely ruining his boxing career. Shameful.

Victior Ortiz was watching and be like ...... @ Walters!

 

[Jmare007]

I don't even care, I really wanna see a loma-pacquiao fight. they both have very similar builds and loma's footwork will give manny serious problems.

[Knicksman20]

right..he took mean shots from donaire, marriaga, and sosa without taking a step back

Something just didn't seem or feel right about it. I'm not saying he was paid off but it was weird. It's not like he was getting beat up.
