    At any weight Pac would be favoured, but it's not at all inconceivable that Loma could win, especially if it was in a series.

    Loma is as good as Marquez then why not.

    But that chin is a bit suspect though.

    Because Marquez represented a stylistic poison for Pacquiao, he's basically a very good fighter with an ATGs number.
    Like that matters, for
    1. Loma's chin is decent, he wasn't hurt by Linares he was just a little stunned and Jorge is a hard puncher.
    2. Your chin could be granite and Pacquiao could still stop you, look at Barrera and Morales

    Marquez is also an atg, better than very good. Hes easily one of thee most precise counter punchers ever

    Loma doesn't want any of PAC even today. Let alone prime .

    That just tells me everything. Close fight though.

    This. The Pac that fought Hatton weighed in at 138 and only had 1 fight at LW as he was dragged up 2 weight divisions by Oscar. That’s basically a prime Pac that could have made 135 with absolute ease.

    Don’t see why Loma would want any of that if he won’t even dare entertain a 40year old now.

    I'm defining ATG with top 10 at the weight, he's not a top 10 at LW or FW. He'd be up there at SFW but I rank him at FW.

    Any version of Pacquiao crushes Lomachenko at any weight they fight at.

    Pacman is naturally bigger than Loma. That said, I don't think there's anybody in history that's Lomachenko's weight that I'd say was a sure thing to beat him.

    Loma would have a chance against pre-roach pacman. After that all day pac. Pac was just a different animal back then.
