    At 130 Loma's operating at a notably higher level technically to what Mayweather was doing at 130. A few years later in Floyd's career his skills caught up to his athleticism more, but at 130 he does not have the same skills that Loma has.

    Floyd was fighting THIS guy on his second fight:

    Clearly, if Lomachenko stepped up to this calibre fighter, he'd get more respect from the Floyders! I wonder if Lomachenko could beat the mighty Reggie Sanders?

    Arum made the Rigo fight because he's never liked Rigo. Even fans started to hate on Rigo saying that he isn't a draw and all Rigo wanted to do was fight.

    We know. Floyd unified against the nunber 2 guy and was better. And he's a lineal champion at 130. Clearly better than Loma. Floyd is considered one of the best Sfw's ever and you posted that **** lmao.

    PBF was 19 in his second pro fight, while Loma was 26.

    So you're saying Floyd had youth on his side, too? This just gets worse and worse.

    Loma is the flashiest man in boxing right now. He's that rare fighter that is very entertaining despite lacking power. He really is lacking power. He's making people quit, he's embarrassing world class fighters because they cannot touch the man at all. They can't land a single clean punch on him. He's blending offense and defense that hasn't been seen in a while, a little reminiscent of dare I say Whitaker in the sense of blending workrate and defense.

    He's a lot better looking than Crawford which seems to weirdly matter despite the fact that boxing is mostly watched by straight males. I suspect though that him being 5'6" probably damages his appeal to the ladies though. However much these homoerotic posters on here like talking about Lomachenko's eyes and skin. To me it's gay as ****.

    Also the fact that he's white probably matters a little too. In the sense that the majority of America is white people and it's easier to market a white guy to white people.

    PBF 19
    Loma 26:risas3:

    Why not compare the 19 year old Loma to the 19 year old PBF or the 26 year old Loma to the 26 year old PBF if you really want to be fair about this.:deal:

    The same can be said for Tyson, Ali, Robinson, Marciano, Pep, and many other greats. Who did they fight in their 2nd pro fight?

    If a prime Floyd goes life and death with Castillo imagine what JLC would have done to a 2nd pro fight Floyd? He would have absolutely wrecked the Floyd that looked awkward against Reggie Sanders.

    You're right, Lomachenko has been slowing down. Clearly his time at the top is limited. Floyd had the benefit of those young fast-twitch muscles in his early career. Speaking of which, should we go through their career fighter for fighter and compare? :D Should be fun ... for me. Wanna guess who we'd be comparing Rigondeux (fight #9) to?

    Damn, why, it would be THIS guy:

    http://boxrec.com/en/boxer/4761

    To be the GOAT at 130, THIS is the calibre fighter that one should be facing!

    Rigondeux, pffft!
