Man, at least Pac and Floyd (well it was mostly Floyd's fault) waited until they were super stars before becoming diva's. These young guy's are simply unbelievable
Teo has to be the poster boy on how to waste your momentum after a big win. I know it wasn't completely his fault, but he's been out of the ring for ages.
Haney Can't Beat 'Fimo... All of the Young Lightweight Stars ('Fimo, Dev, Tank, King Ry) TALK About Fighting Each Other, But it's 'Fimo That's Actually Fought THE Best Guy of the Bunch, in Loma... 'Fimo's Put the Most ACTION Behind His Words.... REED
Can't really agree. Sure, Lopez got an headstart on the others (Comney and especially Loma) but he's been inactive since his big win and his next fight is borderline meaningless. Plus, he talks as if the other guys are not worth his time, even Lomachenko, which is absurd considering he barely established himself.
Even w/His Inactivity, 'Fimo's Fought BETTER Opposition Than Dev, Tank or King Ry, Unquestionably...In FEWER Fights Than All of Them, No Less... Kambosos is a Mandatory; Would You Rather 'Fimo Get STRIPPED Of His IBF Title Instead???... Talk is Just That, TALK...REED Has Little Doubt Loma II is On the Agenda for Spring 2022...It's THE Biggest Fight Out There for 'Fimo... REED
Agreed. Pac was KO'ing Barrera and Morales and still wasn't a diva. Floyd crying after the Gatti fight was cringeworthy. He beat up a punch bag and then started crying in the ring on his knees. I actually rewatched the fight recently. Up til that point he'd been PBF but not really lapsed into diva mode. Nowadays young cats like Shakur are putting out these kinds of photoshoots with their broads https://twitter.com/ShakurStevenson/status/1449880540534824960
Well he had that slave contract comment which was a bit diva like, but he still was fighting top guys after top guys at the time
REED Has Little Doubt it was His Girl’s Idea… All that “Beautiful, Glowing, Pregnant Woman” Bullshit. YUCK!!! No Way in Hell Did Shakur WANT to Do a Photoshoot Like That, He’s Just Playing Along for the Greater Good… REED
Have you seen how muscled Timo is now? Doubt he can make 135 without sacrificing too much. He'll be at 140. I think Haney will be better at 140 as well. I didn't mind Haney getting buzzed against Linares. It's good to see he knew how to handle getting hurt and still win. I personally think Garcia is the weak link. He's got the left hook but outside of that I don't think much of him.
i agree that both haney and lopez are weakening themselves to make 135. disagree on how haney responded to getting hurt by an ancient linares. he didnt exactly pull through that one like ray leonard. he just went into survival mode and stunk it out.
Yeah I don’t see much in Garcia either. He’s got fast hands and some power in his left hook. But I don’t see any great skills. His chin also appears shaky. But I don’t see him in boxing for the long haul anyway. He’s already got one foot out the door and looking for an excuse to get the second one out.
No, Aside from the Shit Talking Video w/Haney from the Other Night, REED Can't Say He's Seen Much of Teofimo @ All, Lately... It's NOT 'Fimo's Fault but Triller's "Handling" of the Kambosos Mandatory is a Complete TURN OFF...Are They On Their 4th or 5th Reschedule Date???...Motherfuckers Were Planning a MONDAY PPV @ One Point???... REED Certainly Hopes 'Fimo Isn't Weakening Himself to Make '35 Because ALL Of His Leverage w/Top Rank is Based On Being Unified Lightweight Champion...He's Not on Arum's "Favorite Person's" List @ the Moment and if Crawford Re-Signs (& Beats Porter), REED Fully Expects Arum to Proceed w/Crawford-Taylor in 2022... Will Be Interesting to See How Things Play Out... As for Dev, REED Ain't Ready to BURY Him for Getting Rocked by Linares, But Knowing Dev CAN'T Punch a Lick, It's 1 LESS Thing to Be Enthusiastic About...But @ Least Dev is ITCHING to Get Back in the Ring After Getting Rocked, UNLIKE King Ry's Ass... REED
As of right now, the comparisons are insulting to Khan and Ortiz, especially Khan. We joke on Khan all the time, but Khan was more accomplished than Ryan will ever be. Ryan will never ever have wins like Malignaggi, Judah, Kotelnik, Alexander, Maidana, on his resume. Ryan is 23. The 23-year-old Khan would have beaten the living shit outta the current Ryan.
We won't know until he actually fights top guys. And that's something I can't take from Khan. Say what you will about his chin, but Khan had a good resume. He wasn't afraid of challenges. Hell, he wanted the Bradley fight. It was Bradley who turned that one down. Ryan is allllllllllllll talk.
I'd be much more excited for this fight if both of them were actual superstars and did a lot more in their careers. As is they're both just hyped up prospects, but at least Lopez beat Loma.
