2723780, I gave Loma round 8...that was it Posted by bentagain, Sun Oct-18-20 05:24 AM
I don’t see the outrage at the 119 card, that’s what I saw
Loma gave away the early rounds...but I’ve never seen a fighter intentionally give away the entire first half of a fight
I thought he was going for the KO in round 8...didn’t get it, but definitely won the round
and I didn’t think his jab was enough to win rounds vs Lopez’s power in the remaining rounds
Just because he decides to start throwing doesn’t automatically mean he wins rounds
Lopez was still beating him.
Wasn’t even an exciting fight for the most part
What started off looking like a strategy to tire Lopez, ended up looking like Loma ran for the whole fight
Brilliant strategy and execution by Lopez
Keeping Loma in front of him, working the body and not letting Loma get into a rhythm...I wouldn’t have believed it if I didn’t see it
Shame of it is, he’s probably going to move up for big names in future fights
Doubt we see a rematch.
