I'm the biggest lomachenko fan in here and would give him a massage if he asked me to.
I am literally the biggest lomachenko fanboy in the world.
But I think Lopez beat his ass.
He beat his ass bad.

Bit harsh, geographic location doesn't really have an impact on boxing ability. That's like me saying Fury and Joshua have cleared out the American League. In an individual sport it's a bit of a mute point.
Surely a HOF worthy fighter? Not an ATG though.
Scored the fight 115-113 to Lopez. I think that maybe a couple of rounds could have been swung in Lopez's direction. The rounds Lopez won however were a lot clearer than the rounds Loma won. Loma started so damn slow though. I think if a rematch takes place he's going to have walk though that fire a lot sooner than maybe he's comfortable with, he may get even get stopped doing so, that's what great fighters must do once in a while, walk though the fire to grasp victory in unlikely situations. Personally I think he can do so, Lopez has a porous defence and despite his obvious size advantage was feeling the heat himself late in the fight. His one punch sharpshooting really played into Loma's hands in sporadic patches in the fight. Lopez deserves all the credit in the world though, very disciplined and accomplished performance.

I think that's pretty fair and accurate. Fury and Joshua have pretty much throttled all the American HW's. Again, this was more me being butthurt at a huge guy like Campbell almost getting stopped by tiny ass Lomachenko.

Poor Loma. I guess that's why we saw him throw no hard punches in the fight, and why we saw he wince with pain the few times he tried. And why he specifically mentioned his shoulder at the post-fight interview in which he said he clearly lost because his shoulder was injured.
No wait ..........

If he was truly injured, should have withdrew. The performance, or lack of I should say, was truly distasteful

Agree, if you are sufficiently injured you should pull out. But once you choose to enter the ring there should be no excuses. Even when you perform as disappointingly as Loma did. He lost but hopefully he will be back.
Thought he performed admirably under the circumstances, 14 months out and with a shoulder injury. That said the shoulder injury being in the public domain is more than enough, it's a bit much to be posting videos of the shoulder just after the surgery, it's in poor taste and comes across as bitter in defeat.

When you climb in through the ropes there should not be any excuses.
Looks like dealt with is living rent free in your head. And not just your head. He's got a couple guys here by the balls.

You obviously share the same opinions as he does, but you don’t go all the way like he does.

Like I said elsewhere, I think the Ukranian government must have a "pee tape" on @Dealtwith, and they are blackmailing him to say these crazy things about their national hero.
It's the only explanation.
