Lomachenko is great, but he ain't beating no Mayweather at 130. Not even on the same tier.

    We've heard this before. Everyone beats Mayweather until they get in the ring.

    Which GGG alt did you abandon today after someone told you Loma fought last night and you'd seen a couple of vines of Walters quitting on twitter?

    Loma is too high tech for void.

    There were fighters as good as Floyd (or better depending upon who you ask) before now and there will be fighters as good (or better depending upon who you ask) after now. At this time, to state as fact that Lomachenko (who's amateur pedigree outshines Floyd's unless I am mistaken and is on pro fight number what? 9?) is "not even on the same tier" in terms of ability is silly.

    Lomachenko said "Floyd is a great defensive fighter like sweat flea". But Lomachenko is both he is offense and defense. Not boring like Void jr. He is savior to baxxing. One of the most exciting boxers to come a long.

    Yeah wasn't Mayweather re as a heavy puncher back then?
    Styles make fights and I couldn't honestly tell you how I think it would go,I do however see Lomo as more aggressive than Floyd and Rigo who are so good at countering they literally sit back and wait for it.
    To be honest I don't care,as I enjoyed Floyd at his best I consider it honour to watch Lomo dude prize fights how he shadow boxes which is something I've not seen before

    Who did Floyd actually beat at 130? Very drained, ghost, pointless lifeless Corrales??! Don't step to me with that BS. Corrales is elite but not the one that Floyd beat. Genaro was past it BUT I'll give him credit. Floyd is one of the best ever, but we're justified in believing Lomachenko on that very top tier, now.

    Floyd has overrated power at 130, people act like he's a power puncher or something, GTFO.

    Lomachenko is EVERYTHING we wanted Pacquiao to be, to beat Floyd.

    This. They're clearly on the same tier skill-wise.

    Only a matter of time before the Floyd nut huggers keep hating on Lomachenko

    I quite frankly don't want them to be Lomachenko fans if they can't handle the fact that he's good enough to be considered better than him. I don't care for their insecure defensiveness. There's a new sheriff in town.

    Pretty Boy Floyd is pretty much TBE, for real, at 130.

    Going to say this. Lomachenko is a great fighter. Seems to be a hybrid of a lot of past fighters like Roy, PAC, pep but that said. Guy was been beaten by Salido who had 13 losses and is war torn. He's 28 years old. You could say Floyd has been doing his thing for almost as long as Lomo's been alive. Some are you are blowing your load over this guy. I think there's more to prove before we can say he's at or near Floyd. Hes got to move up and continue to fight champions and we can't have any more Salidos from this point forward.

    Loma VS Floyd at 130 would be a close win for Loma. Pac Loma at 130 with Pac's improved right Loma might get KO'd. At the very least he'd get knocked down and lose on points. Im a *******.
