    He looked like a little boy next to Linares put it that way, regardless of the outcome of the fight.

    I don't pretend to know what MG has been entering the ring at these days. What I do know is Loma is quickly becoming one of the most over rated fighters in all my years.

    If he was half as talented as people wish to pretend he'd be destroying the top ww fighters who he couldn't beat any top ww.

    Fyi: guys, Loma isn't this tiny dude compared to pac and fmj, that's the exact size of Loma yet no one would ever give him a real shot at the top ww or part jww.

    Fmj is 5'7'", he tries claiming 5'8" because his little man syndrome. The truth is fmj was weighing in fight nights the same as Loma if right now but fmj was taking on and beating the best ww and even jmw there was out there.

    Loma barely, and I do mean barely got by a very shop worn Linares who truly wasn't ever close to a great fighter. Couple great assets but always came up short when he tried stepping up..

    The only advantage fmj had over Loma was his reach but he beat down fighters that Loma wouldn't even be allowed to run about competing against because he'd get throttled

    WW? The hell?

    Not tiny compared to Floyd or Pac? Both guys, especially Floyd, are MUCH bigger than Loma.

    Let the discredit of Linares begin....

    im interested, what were floyds and pacs dimensions at 135 compared to loma? because i remember very clearly thinking that pac was way too small to ever make any waves at ww, but thats what atg's do, make guys like me look like they dont know wtf theyre talkin about. so far loma is making me look like i know it all.

    Garcia's fat ass is walking around @ 175. I'd say they are significantly different sizes.

    You are so full of sht it's embarrassing Floyd could not even make a catch weight of 145 against Marquez yet he weighs the same as loma?.. same size my ass,

    Also Floyd refuses to be weighed the day of fights and was so "severely dehydrated" for the pacqiao fight that he needed IV's as claimed by him and his team when he was caught with it in his arm so which was it Floyd was too dehydrated after making 147 or was he flushing peds...

    When did Floyd ever weigh 134 for a weigh in and 138 the day of the fight when fighting a welterweight as you claim your bias homerism is sad....

    Furthermore the last time Floyd weighed less then 140 for a weigh in was back in 2003 against Ndou when he was 26.

    Will be interesting to see how he does in Easter fight having to go back down to 135, his last 2 fights have been at 140 and yeah he looked fleshy but I wonder if it will effect his stamina if the fight goes late.

    The haters are getting desperate now - want lil Loma to go in there against 140 and 147lbers! Lol not gonna happen ladies.

    Beltran, Berchelt, Garcia, Tank,Pac, Linares, even Gary Russel rematch if need be. All the opponents he needs over the next 3yrs or so are right here at 130-135lbs.

    Loma was probably 140-142 on Saturday night. I think Garcia would be rehydrating all the way up to 150-152lbs if he can still even make 135lbs anymore.

    Loma will lift 9rds easily off Garcia at this point. Though im sure two of the judges will find their way to a 115-113 score.

    I think the weight difference is more perspective based, than fact based.

    Looking at guys like Hank Armstrong @ 5'5 won the WW title at 133lbs vs 5'7 142lbs champ. I think Loma has the skills to beat virtually everyone at 140, exception being Garcia, again this one weight class difference shouldn't equate Loma to being too small.

    Unless Garcia re-hydrates to Jr middle or something along the lines..

    They already have the excuse ready man, if the guy could jump up 3-way classes and win all those titles what's the difference? Pacquiao and Mayweather did it, Dela Hoya did it, if Loma can do it then so be it but if he can't then perhaps he's not as great as you guys think he is.

    He is 30 Floyd and pac by that age stopped jumping divisions. It's a lot easier to jump divisions when you are still growing in you early to mid 20's then it is When you are in your 30's. Outgrowing a division is different then moving to higher weights solely for the challenge. The fact that you don't know the difference....
