    My choice is Berchelt and then Garcia for 2018.
    Loma for FOTY 2017 and 2018 and eventually Fighter of the Decade.

    I voted Davis, my desire to see him humiliated, cry like a little ***** and then quit is greater than my need to see Loma fight an actual P4P caliber guy at the moment.

    If he was to fight all 4 at some stage in his career I'd choose in this order:
    Berchelt-get another belt at 130
    Linares
    Garcia
    Davis-Loma might be about 60 when tank comes out of hiding

    I'd like to throw Easter jr in between somewhere.
    If he was to take garcia's, Davis and Easter jrs 0 I think he's untouchable p4p #1

    He will be lucky if 1 of those 4 actually fight him by the end of 2018 but guess who will get blamed for the fights not happening? Loma will probably get stuck with Salido/Roman/Farmer next year with a chance of Machado or Ogawa.

    Flannigan in the U.K. would be a cool event though.

    True. Probably won’t happen but wouldn’t it be so much fun to see Loma abuse the **** out of Davis. The look on that stuttering ****** Floyd’s face afterwards would be worth the price of admission :D

    They would have an absolute fit if Loma could only get Tevin Farmer to fight him next. I do not see why that would be so terrible, many claimed Farmer/Ogawa was the worst robbery of the past decade so he should be considered live against Loma. After all; Russell Jr, Walters and Rigo all had strong grass roots support so why not Tevin Farmer.

    speaking of FOTY, I noticed Joshua won the BBC category this year by an absolute landslide over loma (a VERY distant second). I suppose patriotism is bound to play a big part, especially considering that lewis Hamilton received as many votes as ayrton senna for BBC best F1 driver ever! scandalous!

    Garcia. If not him then Linares. If no Linares then Berchelt or Davis.

    With Berchelt being too scared all these are unrealistic for Loma's fight in February.

    Davis is already being protected he don't want that work.

    I actually think Linares could get made.

    Then Garcia end of 2018. Or early 2019.

    Yes, Linares seems to be the most realistic opponent. But he has his own fight on Jan 21, and Lomachenko should fight in february (because, I believe, they have some prearranged schedules with ESPN).
