    Loma is the best fighter in the world P4P and lands more punches than Manny does, so is more exciting and interesting to watch.

    The intrigue with Pacquiao is in part due to his age, and the Thurman performance was truely special.

    What a horrible question I love watching them both. But at this stage in pacquiaos career I'd have to say loma. Just.

    Pac would never go an entire round barely throwing a punch. He explodes at some point even in the feel out opening round. Standing with Thurman and throwing power punches in the first was mesmerizing. I thought that he was going to lay back and counter Thurman, but nope.

    I love watching both for different reasons albeit we've already obviously seen plenty of Manny in the pro game whereas Loma has still only had 15 fights and it's always a real treat to watch an artist like him perform and even in his 'worst' performances you can make HLs like this of pure poetry in motion.

    But unlike massive weight bullies like your Crawford's and your Spence's of the world they're generally both beating opponents who have huge physical advantages over them and are either way bigger, heavier, and longer than them or all three and they're doing it on the road too.

    Time seems to speed up when Loma fights. I honestly thought the rounds were shortened to 2 minutes during his fight against Campbell. Matrix indeed!

    What fight of Loma's was more exciting than watching Pac fight Magarito, Hatton, Mosely, Barerra, Morales or Marquez?

    the Magarito fight was one sided, Hatton fight was just a good KO, Mosley was just a one sided points win, the Barrera fights were quite good, morales and Marquez had great fights against Manny but I prefer Loma`s style, he`s amazing the Linares fight was great too.

    Pac-Man , especially now.

    You don’t know if he’s gonna box another masterpiece, get beat and comeback and win another title, a back and forth battle, get knocked out and finally show his age.

    Much more intriguing

    Lol look at the size of Luke compared to Lomo!Shouldn't be possible but because his technique is so solid and that he's coming from angles,he's basically taking these bigger opponent's by surprise.His power would mean nothing against these bigger opponent's if he was straight up and down orthodox kinda guy imo.

    Yes and unlike Hughie fight where I literally fell asleep from round three I had no problem staying awake for Lomo.

    Margo, Hatton & Mosley were fights in Pacs 6th, 7th and 8th division. Watching a man fighting naturally bigger men, in my opinion, is much more exciting than anything Loma has produced thus far. Knocking Pac for having one sided beat downs, when comparing him to Loma? The only exciting fights Loma has been in were against Salido and Linares. Niether of those guys are on the level of Marquez, Barerra or Marquez. Loma, at this point, is too good to be in really competitive, back and forth fights. Therefore, not really exciting.

    Lomachenko should test himself against Pac. I guarantee all the wizardry would go away and he'd get violently punished and KO'd.
