    Agree. That's why a lot of people were sort of disappointed by the timing of his move up. However, he fought the #1 Lightweight in his first fight so it is not as though any of those fights were more challenging than that.

    Loma can still fight the guys at 130, 135 had Linares and Mikey so it sort of made sense to move up. But I'm sure he could come back down for Berchelt or Tank.

    I disagree. Berchelt was a tougher matchup for Lomachenko than Linares. Linares was the #2 135 pounder in a thin division. Garcia was the best at lightweight. Linares claim to fame is folding against DeMarco, and then facing Euro level opposition.

    His shoulder injury was a torn Arumun, just like Paq's and I hear the Arumoscraphy went perfectly.

    Pedraza has the belt....

    Two LW titles for Loma, two LW titles for Mikey....

    One champ to rule them all.

    It's being set up just perfect. Unless Mikey prefers to sacrifice himself to Spence to avoid the shame of being schooled by The Matrix.... then, it all makes perfect sense.

    He last to Tank because Pedraza, who's an exceptionally talented boxer, easily one of the best in and around 130-135, decided to slug it out like a jackass with Tank, when he was struggling to make weight to begin with, in a cash grab before moving up to the weight class he really belonged in.

    While yeah Tank beat him, Pedraza's actual list of wins, is far superior to Tanks.

    Aside from Pedraza, Tank's best win is Cuellar and Walsh.

    Whereas Pedraza has Beltran, Farmer, S. Smith, Cherry, Klimov and Farenas on his.

    What? Is Lomachenko supposed to only fight guys who only have winning records and have never been KO'd? Well then I guess that means Mayweather's wins over Pac and Berto don't mean **** right?:lol:

    And once again, I thought you were supposed to be a Loma fanboy?:lol: Yeah, bull****.

    I have no absolute Frigging Idea what you just said. And no, I am being dead serious, after reading your post I felt antipathy for the human race, I became a hesitant misanthrope for a couple of seconds :sisi1
