    If you like but it's not really a worthwhile comparison. Crawford had a fraction of the amateur experience, and turned pro at 20 years old.

    Loma was able to beat a more highly regarded fighter in his next bout 3 months after Salido, so can we really blame the loss on lack of experience?

    Yes you can and if you are going down the path of "more highly regarded" in GRJ, then you can flip that by saying Salido is not only more experienced but way more decorated. Plus he cheated any and every which way he could and still only scraped by, whilst Lomachenko was navigating his first 12rounds against a teak tough world class operator.

    Crawford never stepped up until he fought Prescott, this was 20 fights and 5 years into being a pro....now should this be used against him? It depends how you see development in a particular fighter....they'e all different. But at the same time I don' see how you can use losing a SD to Salido in your 2nd pro fight as a way to run the man down.

    Its not bull.

    Not even Loma picked himself as number 1 pound for pound.

    Why is he getting so much hate for an opinion
    Crawford and Loma are top 2 IMO and top 3 in almost everyone’s P4P.

    Not everyone will have them in the exact same order.. Floyd is naturally gonna be biased to his fellow American fighter.. it happens

    People really do over react when they don’t like a boxer

    Yeah, the same man who said he is better than Ali because Ali didn't move up from heavyweight.

    That was before he beat Pacquaio dummy. Did I give him credit after he beat Pac? Horn was completely unproven at the time. The fight against Pac looked like a joke. Horn proved me wrong period. I've admitted this.

    Loma got dropped in a competitive fight against a guy whose best wins are a bunch of mediocre UK talent. He also had been stopped 3 times. He was being way overrated. Crawford easily dominated a guy that beat Pac who was coming off dominating Bradley and Vargas. So the old excuse doesn't work.
