    Irrelevant.

    Pac wasn't too big for Lomachenko because he was smaller than Haney, Commey, Linares, Lopez, Ortiz, and Campbell than they are on fight night. If you want to acknowledge that Pac's combination of skills, experience, speeds, and power is too much for Lomachenko to handle, then do so (like the lopsided poll suggests). But in NO WAY was Pac too big for Lomachenko to fight.

    Stop trying to spin your way out of it

    Loma was accused of being a bully when talk of a fight between him and Inoue was being mooted

    Even though the size difference between him and Inoe is less than it is between Manny and Inoue

    You're still obsessed about Manny vs Loma after all this time even though Manny is retired

    Loma and Inoue are still active so lets see you start beating the drum for that one

    Inoue is scared. McDonnell is much bigger than Loma so why is that little metrosexual weight bully coward still down at 118 when he could be facing fellow P4P top 10 ranked fighters who are smaller than a guy he KO'd in a round?

    "Manny is a lot smaller than him [Floyd]."

    — Juiced Bodyguard

    “I also believe that short arms accumulates in speed as well, right? If you’ve got long arms like Muhammad Ali and, you know, Muhammad Ali was fast, Roy Jones Jr. was fast — they had tremendous speed. But can you compare that speed to a lightweight fighter? And we all know that Manny Pacquiao is a lightweight fighter. So lightweight fighters, not only do they have higher punch outputs on average, but they come into the ring with tremendous hand speed."

    — Keith Thurman

    Okay, has Lomachenko said he wants to fight Inoue and willing to drop down to 126 to make the fight?

    Nope.

    Has Inoue said he wants the fight and moved goalposts only to call off the fight when Arum tried to make it?

    Nope.

    Lomachenko wisely knew his limits and didn't want that work with Pac. Find a way to cope.

    :deal:

    Pac has been identifying as a welterweight for over 10 years. He's a welterweight.

    Name me another welterweight who has been routinely referred to as an actual lightweight by his peers.

    It's understood that Pacquiao is anomaly,

    I remember Breadman in his early days( this is before his newly engaged buddy relationships) where he even defended Pacquiao & acknowledged Floyd avoidances of him throughout those years while creating unnecessary hurdles along the way,

    Of course some years later Breadman has become quiet the retweeting twitter buddy of the likes of Ellerbe, PBC & other similar associate's & now has done a complete turn around on his "expert opinions" while over praising the same "Certain" Fighters in his blogs, just one example of him always bringing up Canelo & other Non American fighters PED trials when it favors his argument while ignoring the ones which hit close to home & his circles, allot the times just by completely ignoring them altogether, Strange isn't it?

    This is a guy that after how many years still can't spell Pacquiao's name in his Columns, in fact just last week he was raving on & on about how great of a person Sam Watson is by overpraising him, knowing full well that the higherup's will catch notice of his complementariness, funny how time changes so many things even with certain people recreating historical opinions on fighters & circumstance's surrounding other fights once they have made influential Connections within the industry,

    After losing Williams he has finally managed to land a notable TV fighter in Caleb Plant, we saw him over the weekend going overboard with his cussing while masking in his newly appointed spotlight, good for him.

    Whatever helps you sleep at night but Pac has consistently made the WW limit for over a decade.

    You may want to argue that he's a small WW, but he's a WW.

    Despite being "technically" shorter than Loma, Pac put on the weight much better than Loma. Loma looks tiny at 135, so I can't imagine he'd look any better at 140. He'd probably perform worse if he went up to Jr. WW

    There ain't a guy in boxing that would say Pac was a true welterweight, small or not.

    No one is saying he's a true WW. But at his time of retirement, he was a WW , HAD been a WW for a long while, whether you like it or not.
