    Even if Loma fought and beat Berchelt, you'd just say Berchelt was a bum.

    It's not Loma's fault he's so much better than everyone in or around his weight class.

    Even if he is fighting a C-level guy in Beltran, being a 3 weight world champion in 12 fights is still an amazing feat.

    When Crawford's record is asked to be justified, many proudly acclaim his victory over Beltran as evidence that he has a credible resume.

    I do not understand why you have mentioned Horn as if he has a win over him. That fight Crawford will be taken to his limits and we will find out if he truly is what they say he is, because in my view he is scheduled for a 12 round pounding at the hands of Horn

    I'm looking forward to watching Crawford put on a clinic against Horn and silencing the critics for good.

    Crawford hasn't got Horn's heart to do that. Horn is one of the most unorthodox, unconventional, uncompromsing and unrelenting fighters in the welterweight division today.

    He'll take Crawford to Hell.

    Nope

    Berchelt is clear #2 @130 & a B+ level boxer

    Thts a much better fight

    Loma gets mass respect for that scalp

    Its just as good as a Linares win

    If Loma fights and beats Berchelt, I think he's a top 10 ATG at 130.

    Salido is better P4P of course, but he's not winning that match up H2H due to size and Beltrans body taking extremely well to the PED's. Beltran is basically a lightweight Lurch from the Addams family.

    The end result of either facing a 2018 Loma is still a one sided lashing. Beltran doesn't bring anything to the table Loma hasn't seen before, and that's the only way to beat him. Give him something he hasn't seen before and hope he runs out of rounds before he figures you out.

    I wanna see him against Linares/Easter/Mikey

    Those guys are all skilled & have size advantage over Loma

    I would favor Loma over Linares & Easter, Mikey/Loma is 50/50

    But all are interesting bouts

    Some people expect ooos and ahhhs and declarations of invincibility after each Loma fight. It just boggles the mind.

    So you want Loma to face just bigger guys or something?

    I think Linares and Garcia are the only 2 who even have a chance of beating Loma.

    Fortuna gave Easter all he could handle. Loma would give him a boxing lesson.
