    Maybe Lomachenko is more skilled than Floyd. I haven't watched enough of prime Floyd to say for sure. That said, Floyd had done more when he was Lomachenko's age.

    I doubt Lomachenko will accomplish as much as Floyd, because he entered the pros late.

    Mayweather beat around 25 world champions. Many of which were on the P4P list.

    Loma beat 1 world champion. And he had already been beaten by Ricky Burns.

    That's what I'm saying. I think he's going to Bolivianize Rigo but that's what he MUST do if
    he's a great as people are saying. All great fighters have signature wins, Lomo really doesn't have any yet.
    Not his fault, I think, but he isn't exactly a spring chicken and doesn't have many years left. I don't think a guy with
    under 30 bouts can be considered "great", so he needs to get busy to get my vote.

    Loses to Orlando Salido, has beaten NOBODY and is dragging a guy up TWO weight classes for his next fight. To say he's overrated is an understatement...

    Oh, touchy there Herol, aren't you !

    The thread question, like many thread questions on here, asked about how we rate him.
    The purpose was to engender a discussion, like we have on a wide range of subjects.

    You wrote:
    None of what we collectively write on here matters in the big sense, but it matters to those participating in the discussion.

    Nomas ?

    Has the man a history of quitting ?

    You sound like a 13 year old school boy some of the time.



    You were trying to sound deep, and you came off sounding like an idiot.

    Pretty much like you do most of the time !

    Yeah, herol, that's such a relevant question.

    I voted no! He is very impressive and is at his physical peak. He's at the point to were it's like he doesn't need to think, he just reacts. His physical and mental skills are working in sync. He is able to think it and his body reacts quickly. Watching him, I get the same feelings evoked by Roy Jones, Mayweather and Pac in their primes. All untouchable and physical specimens! We should get confirmation come Dec 9. Rigo might have something to say about that!

    and my contribution was how he rates u.

    furthermore i am single - so asking how my partner rates Nomas is a dead end question by you.

    So -advance on what I wrote by replying, or reply to someone else. I'm not stopping you from replying to others, am I? The censorship you suggest i am attempting does not exist - so your post is doubly redundant.


    dont get in a huff just because you dont like one answer in an entire thread, or because your post was a double failure.

    I have yet to see him in with anyone truly talented.
    Walters is his best win and Walters was mere seconds away from a tko loss vs a fat old and completely out of shape donaire.

    Walters was on ***** street at the very end of round 2, vs the worst ever version of donaire. Him being so much bigger saved (MADE) his career that night.

    Losing to salido is inexcusable, there's nothing that could ever correct that horrible loss. He's still trying to live that night down, scared to fight him again too. Talking C- level fighter that's tough and he struggled with that, c'mon man

    5 pounds isn't so much bigger, if those weights were even accurate.
