Unless Loma is going to fight Mikey at 135, kinda wish he goes back to 130 to clean up...

    Berchelt
    Machado
    Tevin Farmer
    Tank Davis (When he ready)

    Are all solid scalps for Loma and good bouts...

    Not sure why he moved up with thise good fights left

    To me Berchelt give him the toughest bout... Thats a good scrap

    Loma vs Josh Taylor at 140 or catch-weight slightly under?

    What's so good about Taylor? beating a shopworn Postman means about as much as beating the Namibian fluky man.

    Nah. Those guys at 130 can come see Vasyl. He’ll rule the 135 division and eventually go to 140. Lomachenko is PFP#1. He doesn’t have to go looking for anybody. Come try and dethrone him ;)

    Seriously? Why you aren't taken serious.

    Berchelts fame comes from beating two shop worn fighters. Loma TKO9
    Tevin Farmer? Loma TKO6
    Tank Davis is a champ and has defended his title various times. Or do you mean Mayweather style ready? Loma TKO10

    I haven't seen much of Machado to come with a prediction. But most likely another TKO win for Loma.

    No one really at 130 or 35 to test him imo.

    He moved up to fight the number 1 lightweight in Linares, something Garcia failed to do. So easily forgotten?

    Garcia is probably not fighting at 135 again so if the matchup did come to fruition it would probably be at 140 where Garcia would have an even bigger size advantage.

    I wish Loma would not go above 135. His frame is just not that big. His skills are unmatched but you can't overcome size past a certain point.

    If he ducks Kye McKenzie history will not be on his side.

    Out of those I see only Berchelt as a very realistic fight. Mainly because Berchelt has been working a lot with Bob Arum (or is he promoted now by Bob?)
    Machado will probably just stick to his belt and won't fight.
    To fight Farmer Loma would have to go on DAZN, I guess...
    And Davis... Well, "You can't rush greatness!"... :smile:

    At 126 and 130 there were about 8 guys that a talent like Lomachenko should have cleaned out. He fought one of them. That was Russel Jr. You can't say he's pound for pound number one, and guys have to go to him, when he skips the best available opponents in weight classes. At 126, he fought one out of the top 5 or 6 guys and lost to another guy who wasn't even a top 5 guy. At 130 he avoided the top three or four best guys. He fought Linares at 135 which is another solid win, but if he's not fighting Garcia next, then the top three guys he didn't fight at 130 are better than Pedraza, Easter jr, and the rest of those guys at 135

    just in the last couple of hours .. all your hate has been on Lomachenko, Burnett, Gvozdyk, Josh Taylor, Frampton,,,
    Hmm- all because of skin colour. Hmm Surely this qualifies as racial trolling

    (Lomachenko is P4P number 1 deal with it!!)
