    Far away, and I don't see him closing the gap. Not because he's not good enough, but because he turned pro too late.

    Why do we have to compare them, anyway? Floyd has done things that Lomachenko hasn't, and vice versa.

    gary is way more talented and skilled than a guy like corrales its not even close. Nobody is beating gary at that weight class besides lomachenko.

    Not being close. But enough to make boxing fans in the future remember him. His boxing IQ, his rare and exceptionally high-level footwork and many things that he can do that you don't find other boxers do. Even both Mike Tyson and Roy Jones Jr. admit that Loma is their favorite boxer in current times.

    As for Mayweather, I'm pretty sure no American boxer have greater achievement than him. However, I am not fond of watching the way he fights. For me, watching all time greats like Ali or Sugar Ray Leonard or even De La Hoya are far more entertaining.

    Arguably better (H2H) than Loma himself. I'd pick both to beat him at 135.

    Gary might be more skilled than Corrales but that does not mean that he would beat him. I would definitely bet on Diego if they fought. He beat Casamayor who was a slicker than GRJ. He gave Freitas his first loss when Freitas was an undefeated KO machine. And outslugged Castillo in their first match. Not to mention stopping Robert Garcia and Garcia was no joke. He ruined fighters. Gary's professional accomplishments don't come close.

    Look loma is great im not trying to bash him im a loma fan but we have to be realistic. Loma has way too much work to do and not enough time to do it in to pass pbf.

    I think he will beat Lopez this Saturday if he survives the early rounds without getting hurt or dropped. If so he will settle in and give Lopez a boxing lesson.
