    Easy work for Floyd when Loma comes with his head down. Loma is easy to figture out. Floyd would embrasse him and make him miss all day and knout him out in the later rounds will be another Hatton fight except easier.

    F OFF with this Loma worshipping man. We are talking about Floyd here, love him or hate him he was one of the best. Takes Loma to school IMO.

    Don't think Loma beats past prime Floyd either, I mean dude was a welterweight, way bigger than Loma. The only time I'd take Loma in this fight is versus a green Floyd at 130.

    What a ridiculous assertion, and some people going with it.

    No. I'm big on board the loma train but don't like this match up for him.

    It also depends what you call a prime Floyd.

    Floyd at 130-135 when they would be of similar weight at least it would be a great fight, though I think FMJ's speed and length would be enough to overcome Loma's technical skills in a potential classic. Styles wise I think Floyd at that weight is about as bad as you can get for Loma, has the extra speed and skills-wise is on a level. Plus Floyd at the lower weights wasn't the brittle feather fist people now (incorrectly) think of him as.

    Floyd of 140+ whilst past physical prime had the extra size and by that point the almost impenetrable defence and I think he'd win more comfortably. The usual make people miss and pot shot routine and Loma doesn't have the power to KO a 140+ version of FMJ, IMO.

    You think Castillo was that good? I always thought he was tough as hell but skill wise he certainly wasn't up there and his title runs were only okay at best. I think that's a a fair summation. Campbell is just better skilled and looks to be a future champ himself.

    With everyone on here being able to actually look back at Floyd's career I think it's fairly obvious that there is no conceivable way that Lomachenko (who I'm a big fan of) would make Floyd say "no mas".

    This is foolish............

    Jlc is arguably the best lw of the era. He at one time was the best body puncher in the sport and was a top 10 p4p fighter. He was very good borderline hof type fighter much better than Campbell and would be the best fighter loma ever fought. A ancient rigo isn't better than a prime jlc.

    Chico corales who jlc beat is light years beyond campbell. Wtf are you talking about? Campbell has lost just about everytime he's stepped up. The lw era jlc fought in is much better than the era Campbell is fighting in.

    Castillo is pretty widely regarded as the best Lightweight of the 2000's.

    You look like an absolute fool.

    Floyd would dominate Loma - you guys cannot be serious with your responses. If Loma can be tamed a little with range by Campbell and Linares, Floyd would have a field day with him. Compare how fast Loma and Floyd start adapting to their opponents rhythm. Floyd would dominate Loma UD 12 shutout.

    Look, I hate floyd as a person, I admire his skills. I like Loma as a person and I also admire his skills. What im trying to say is im not being biased in anyway here. Loma has mad skills, mad skills but you know im not sure how many of those punches would actually land on mayweather.
