What a farce. Theres few highlights of him even hitting him.

Boxing is dead! The transition to UFC being the leader in combat sports has already long happened and now cemented.

You must be smoking something. Lomachenko did absolutely nothing for the first 7 rounds.

Granted, 119-109 card was absolutely insane, but while that card is disputable, the winner isn't.

Teofrim threw a lot but missed, missed and missed again.

Loma should of done more of course but actually landed when he came in.

Loma also had Teofrim groggy a number if times but as usual ref stepped in to help him out.

Who cares. Boxing is finished. Theres no fighters left anymore worth caring about.

I'm more hyped to see Jones vs Adesanya next year at some point than any bullshit boxing match.

And actually did some damage with his punches. Teofrim no more than tickled Loma who I agree didn't do enough but was able to dance around him all night.


Teofrim is a good fighter and a clear star for his weight class considering he's so young i'd advise him to look at moving over to MMA by the time he's 28-30. There will be nothing left whatsoever in boxing by then.

Teos head snapping back and forth on 4 punch combos. crickets.
Teo landing blows to LOmas gloves and elbows... announcers howling.

I thought Teo just edges him. if LOma wins 12th, draw.

LOma almost has him rnds 9-11... couldnt quite close.

actual scorecards were a bad bad joke.

What??

Usyk vs Chisora is at the end of the month.

Joshua vs Tyson Fury is being made.

Mike Tyson vs Roy Jones is coming as an exhibition.

There's fights to be hyped for, for sure.

Very ignorant comment, you clearly don't know anything about the sport.

Ah yes, the famous "boxing is dying" narrative that's been spouted for 15 years now.

Yeah sorry but this is a terrible comment by Elkano.

Go look at boxers pay days as champs compared to the UFC there's more than £10m difference sometimes more.

Also stating Teofrim should move to MMA, that shows huge ignorance of the difference in martial arts.
Boxing is actually a pretty bad base art for MMA, probably the worst as its the most limited martial art out there, you only use your fists.
Kickboxing, Muay Thai, Wrestling, BJJ are all much better bases for MMA as they cover one half of the tools you can use, i.e stand up or ground game.

If Teofrim is good enough to beat Lomochenko .......... he should go absolutely no where, he's in exactly the right sport and he will be elite.

Throwing that away is like telling Usaine Bolt he should abandon the sprint and become a Javelin thrower.

If your the best in the world at something you don't fk that off for something you may not even be good at, becoming an elite professional requires a life times worth of practice and experience.

Gervonta Davis vs Leo Santa Cruz on Channel 5 tomorrow late night.

I'm 100% buying that EXTRA extra food and drink for tomorrows boxing & footy.

2am to 5am from The Bubble, Las Vegas fight fans.

Hopefully Tyson Fury vs TBA December 5th................. Fury wins and we see AJ vs Fury (providing AJ beats Pulev)

Yeah but its easy money, its like parking up £2,000 for the night just to make £200 interest.

No way in hell Crawfords losing to Kell Brook, the mans finished.

On another note, I cannot wait for Usyk vs Chisora tomorrow.

Its going to be epic, such a great match up.
