    Are you sure? Your posts reek of flat earth lol.

    Or you really hate Canelo and aren't a very trusting person.

    Inoue. He'll smoke the 122 and 126 pounders.

    More power but Loma's skills are off the charts and even you know that

    What makes a winning formula for a fighter?

    Physical condition, size and strength relative to the opponent, safely making the lowest weight category possible and rehydrating as much as the body allows, game plans, the influence of how the referee controls the fight, the perspective of the the judges when it goes to the cards. And, of course, skills. In the first three categories alone it can be argued Loma was at disadvantages that renders your conclusion he lost because of overrated skills alone as disingenuous at best.

    You highlighted Loma's loss to Lopez, disregarded all other factors, and attributed the loss to his skillset. Ergo, he's not the most skilled fighter in the world according to you, because he lost one fight and to achieve this you side-lined every other factor. By all means make a case for why he's not the most skilled, but why try to derail the thread and make it about Loma vs Lopez?

    Make your case for Crawford, other than the fact he's unbeaten...

    My pick was Usyk, not Crawford.

    As for derailing the thread, a very obvious argument against Loma is his loss to Lopez.

    Do you think he could still do it?

    Although Warrington, Wood and Lara don't exactly set the heart racing lol.

    No doubt, but Inoue's skills are off the chart as well. He's just not as flashy and he's ultra efficient.

    Boxing IQ: A+
    Speed: A-
    Power: A+
    Defense: B+/A-
    Offense: A+
    Punch Selection: A+
    Ring Cutting: A+
    Chin: A+

    Inoue has dropped and KO'd dudes with both hands and to both the head and body. He's done it coming forward, off the back foot, initiating, and countering.

    He edges Lomachenko based on zero close fights and zero controversies.

    It's a very weak argument for the reasons I listed above.

    You originally mentioned Usyk and Crawford. Noted you've taken the second name off the table...

    Loma had a blown out shoulder and was robbed and Lopez is better than Johnson and also Commey, Pedraza, Linares, Nakatani, Campbell are all bigger than Loma. Usyk finally fought someone bigger than him in AJ and his face looked like a ***** when the fight ended

    Choca, Usyk, Loma or Crawford. I voted Choca because I may be a bit of a fanboy.
