    His stoppages aren't from power though are they? The better opponents he's had that he's stopped have mainly been due to them quitting. At the bigger weights with heavier punchers not willing to throw the towel in so quickly if they lose by bamboozlement then that should be a lot less of a factor.

    Khan is just as fast as him long and punches much harder than linares. With that said it would be interesting because you never know what to expect from khan

    I disagree bud would bully and terrorize him he's a technician and he can brawl with a mean streak. You can tell bud wants to fight loma he's at everyone of his fights. With that said id much rather see him fight Mikey much more even fight than against Crawford.

    Lomachenko vs. Valuev would be symbolic as hell!

    Ukraine vs. Russia.

    The little guy vs. The giant beast.

    He would easily beat Horn at 147

    The biggest guy he might eventually be able to beat ?

    Spence

    As of now, though, Spence would be favoured to win.

    I just think he needs more time at 135 and will eventually dominate and be able to handle 140.

    He still scored a knockout against a very game champion in his first fight at this weight. I know the knockdown was unexpected and the fight may have been closer than most would have thought, but all-in-all it was still very impressive.

    He’s still young and needs to get used to 135 before attempting to move up further.

    So I think 140 is his domination apex. 147 he would be vulnerable. Maybe in several years.

    nicola valuev has already said no mas, he'd rather have a cup of tea.

    Lets just end this debate already - we know how the Avengers Infinity War part 2 will end, Thanos will pack his bags when Nomas turns up.

    Mikey could probably beat Jeff Horn and Ali right now.

    Lomachenko could probably beat them if he had a bit of time to get up to the weight. Not right now though, no way.

    Jeff Horn would be by far the harder fight for both though
