Loma is an ATG no doubt, BUT to me more on the levels of JMM/MAB/Morales then Pac/Floyd...

    That is my opinion

    Hes a ATG 126/130

    His resume/level.of success will rival those guys more so then Floyd/Pac

    Loma is a little guy like those guys

    JMM never looked right above 135, his onoy success was Pac who was also never a real 147

    This is no slight to Loma

    All those guys are ATGs and have ATG wins

    He'd be lucky to have a career like the big 3 you mentioned. I don't think he'll have a rival like those guys did to have that kind of career though. There are no Barrera, Morales, or JMM in 130-135.

    Lol! :lol:


    He won’t have any of those rivals at 130-135 because he’ll thoroughly beat everybody and produce some more “No Mas” along the way. Is that really your argument? Loma won’t “have that kind of career” that those guys did because there won't be anybody to offer a rivalry to him?! Lomachenko very possibly could have a better career than those guys did when all is said and done and be more dominant than they were. And he’ll do so without any PED crap attached to his name :)

    He will go down as one of the "most skilled" boxers of all time no doubt.
    Just watching him box is a pleasure to watch, but there isn't much competition around his weight, unless hes willing to give up 5-10lbs whats virtually impossible these days.

    Skill and talent wise, Loma is on par or higher than those fighters mentioned.
    But greatness isn’t measure by skill and talent alone. Loma has every opportunity to equal or surpass the Mexican trio. Let’s not jump the gun and wait a few years to see how it plays out.

    Spot on, lack of top calibre opposition will probably end up holding Loma back.

    I suspect, in reaching for greatness, he'll reach too far and get KO'd fighting someone well above his natural weight.

    Loma agaisnt the Mexican trio @ 126 / 130 would be so entertaining. I'd pick him over MAB andJMM....but to lose to Morales.

    Nope. No one he's beat is even close to that level. You really want to put Pedraza and Linares in the same sentence as those guys? LMAO.

    Resume? 11 fight ATG? Nah, with that few of fights he needs to have unified at least 1 division. Extreme talent but, I wouldn't say he's an ATG just yet. Well on his way though!

    But unfortunately for idiots like you... Loma’s career isn’t even close to being done. So those won’t be the only victims on his resume will it? :)

    Also it’s funny you didn’t mention Rigoblin or GRJ when speaking on the scalps of Vasyl’s resume so far. Those were a couple of top wins (Actually schoolings) and guys you were hoping like hell would beat him.
