    crawford is a bigger man, loma would see the distance though, that would look bad on terrence. crawford is a 140/147lber, loma is a 130/135lber. loma is more skilled and a p4p a better fighter, crawford is going to struggle at 147lbs, spence or thurman will rip his heart out.

    Besides a win over Linares, which is a good win, Loma only has wins over handpicked opponents. Marriaga, who wasn't a super featherweight, Rigondeaux, who was a super bantamweight, an inactive Nicholas Walters, a shot Roman Martinez, and Jason Sosa isn't a top 10 p4p resume. I could easily name at least 12 guys that currently have a better resume than Loma does.

    Crawford stops him...this is a silly suggestion. Loma is a helluva fighter but he doesn’t want any part of Crawford.

    Crawford very likely gets crushed by Spence.

    Are you drunk? The question was asked, I gave an opinion, you bring up Spence and weight classes? I didn’t suggest Loma vs Crawford, I simply responded to a “what if”, Loma gets wrecked. Sorry if that hurts your feelings that wasn’t my intent.

    Slightly drunk yes. I doubt loma gets wrecked, it took enough rounds for Crawford to beat wildman gamboa

    And you missed the part where Gamboa went down twice less than 1 minute later? Or the two times he was down earlier? Crawford got caught and immediately got his faculties back and finished Gamboa off.

    Who else has had an opportunity to fight for 3 titles that quickly, especially with a loss? Ray Leonard won a gold medal but he didn't get an opportunity to fight for a championship for 2 years.

    You’re an idiot. And check out the photo of ‘Bud’ with Rigo and Loma at the final pressor. How is Rigo by the way? Haven’t heard much from! :)

    Crawford is not a natural WW. He is more of a natural Junior Welterweight.

    This pretty much sums it up. Bud is too big too talented, too skilled for Loma to simply outclass him. I think Loma does will early but Bud wears him down and finishes him.
