    Not even a pac fan as I believe he cheated in some fights but I believe he is a level above

    Lol their opinions are worthless.Might be a race thing as real boxing fans just get a buzz from watching his craft,artistry,showmanship and freaky power from such a small man.
    He has commentators,boxers and ex boxers purring in delight and somehow these few guys who have nothing good to say about Lomo are to be taken seriously?Give me a break,there constructive criticism and just pure delusional hate and when they go on about Crawford being the same size it's clear to me that they are deluded.

    Salido was a rude awakening to the pro ranks as he never made weight and fought rough.Lomo clearly was not ready for that.Still since then his rise to the top in so short a time is phenomenal.
    It's the manner of his wins that get me.It's like he's disappointed if he doesn't get a No mas or knockout lol.
    Fair play to Luke for getting to the end as I can think of a few that would of quit after those liver shots.

    Lol come on Eggman you'd be condemning a whole load of fighters for cheating if that was the case.
    I'm not defending Manny or Floyd as there's suspicion over both but I don't really view it as cheating.
    In any case I'm surprised you'd think that,given what your pal Tyson Fury got popped for or is he a separate case?

    Minute traces of a naturally occurring substance and cocaine.

    And I’m sticking with it! Haha

    The very same reason they mention Crawford who cuts over 20lbs to fight at welterweight.As it happens I'm a fan of both and think we're lucky to have two top pound for pound greats like Crawford and Lomo.

    He's very good but don't get carried away, prime RJJ, Floyd and Pac would've absoultly toyed wi th a Luke Campbell equivalent, they would've not even come close to losing a round.

    Again, going over the top, Campbell is average. You expect Loma to do a job on him, no big deal. All of a sudden Campbell is being overrated. For the record Mosley would deal with Loma at 135lbs.

    Funny reasoning you have in calling one man a cheat with no evidence and yet when your man Tyson and his cousin Hughie both pop dirty for unacceptable levels of Nandralone a drug that does it all for an athlete,you jokingly choose to believe he and his cousin aren't cheats?
    I get stick off some on here for my views on PEDs as I come from a position of thinking it's the norm as oppose to thinking "he's a cheat but my favourite fighter would never do such a thing".
    I'm not having a go infact I'm sure Tyson would approve that you have his back lol.

    Can’t really comment on the drug thing, but nandrolone is naturally occurring and it was minute traces, unlike kid Galahad

    For the record there's no way of knowing albeit Mosley was a great boxer,worthy of the "sugar" title.

    Mosley’s run at 135 was far from A level opposition either. Nobody is saying Campbell is elite but he barely won a round yet everyone is acting like Lomachenko went life and death.

    Mosley fought Holiday, Molina, Brown, Ruiz, Leija, Johnson, Gomes in title defences.

    I’d pick Loma over all these guys too.

    Inoue won a world belt in his 6th pro fight Has had 13 World Title fights Won them all over 3 weights so far.
    16 knockouts in 18 fights no-one done this & I think he's just getting started this makes Inoue my P4P no1.
