    I never said Robinson had better skills but you have to look at the bigger picture.

    Loma is a genius in the ring and his style is a new game changer for boxing. He is currently fighting at lightweight where it is unlikely he will move up again.

    Sugar Ray Robinson, universally regarded as the best welterweight ever moves upto middleweight and becomes a 5 time champion defeating some of the toughest men to ever step foot in the ring such as Basillo, Fullmer and La Motta.
    Robinson has over 100 professional knockouts and in over 200 fights he only failed to make the distance once in a fight that he was winning at light heavyweight, before heat exhaustion caught up with him.

    As brilliant as Lomachenko is, he ain't beating Sugar Ray Robinson.

    That’s because YDKSAB. You think Mikey is ultra skilled when he’s just a bread and butter traditional boxer. You like tradition because you’re an old jail rat. You have no idea what you’re looking at when you see someone like Lomachenko or Usyk, you just wish we could go back to the good old days when men were tough and could get beaten up for 123 rounds. Guys weren’t tougher, they just weren’t getting hit as hard so they stayed on their feet you dummy.

    Imagine if Lomachenko had 19 losses and had only knocked out just over half his opponents. Middleweight then isn’t middleweight now. I am looking at the bigger picture, and I’m being honest. I can’t just pretend that because a guy is well regarded that I should ignore what I can clearly see in fight footage. He isn’t half the boxer that Lomachenko is.

    So true, Robinson is about level 2 if Lomachenko is level 10.

    Lomachenko is 170cm, SRR is listed at 178cm at a time when they always added an inch to a boxers height.

    This is a ridiculous post. Lol

    Video footage clearly shows boxing skill have diminished considerably.

    The only division that an argument can be made that has evolved is the HW division, and its only because of size.

    Correct mate. Frankie Gavin would TKO Ray Leonard because he was born 30 years later! He has better nutrition (more gmos) duhhhhh

    Well when one person is (for sake of argument) equal in skill, yes size plays a massive part. But when the bigger guy is quicker and more skilled it's night night for Loma

    He was 5'11 and Spence would get dismantled by SRR, it would be embarrassing, he isn't quick enough, he isn't a good enough boxer and he doesn't hit hard enough, Robinson KOs every Welterweight today and Lomachenko, and beats ever middleweight today as well, Southpaws? I assume you're joking, coz it'd be pretty stupid to think that left handed people just didn't exist until now

    You like polls don't you? That's the main argument you use for claiming GGG beat Canelo.

    This poll says you're full of **** son. Lol
