    Seems to have reached his limit as far as putting weight on he has a small frame, He could be champion at 140lbs because he is so skilled and clever, but he wont be nearly as effective. You have two world class fighters there in Taylor and Prograis, Both extremely hard fights for Loma, the size difference is massive he would be dwarfed, these two fighters hit hard and are relentless, both skillful and prime.

    Mikey shouldnt be fighting Spence either, Spence seems slightly smaller than the Charlo's, Hes a massive WW, Hes too big, strong and relentless for Garcia who i see as a Clever well rounded boxer/puncher but with no real special effects. This will last about 5rounds maybe, Spences stock could go down if it goes only further.

    Crawford has the frame to fight at 147lbs he seems to be an okay size welterweight to me, Id like to see how big he is compared to Mikey, Id say naturally he will have a good 5-10lbs on Mikey, He is also a special talent with speed and timing and pure grit, That should be the fight at Welterweight Spence vs Crawford, i hope to see it next year at the very least.

    In summary

    Lomachenko would be a tiny Light welterweight as hes a small Lightweight
    Mikey is a tiny Welterweight/ Average sized Light welterweight
    Crawford is a Big Light welterweight/ Average sized Welterweight
    Spence is Charlo sized.

    Lomachenko vs Garcia
    Crawford vs Spence
    Should be the only fights Made

    Mikey vs Spence is a mismatch
    Lomachenko vs WW is a mismatch

    Loma and Garcia are the only ones daring to be great right now.
    *slight props to crawford for beating horn in his first fight at 147lb however horn isnt a good fighter.

    well said, mostly agree, but i will argue that mikeys size is below average even in 140, average height for top 10 in 140 is like 5'9, his size fits best in 135

    He's already small at 135 and is winning only thanks to his superior skills. His physical inferiority at 135 reminds me of what I saw when Chocolatito came to 115.

    He should try it. What people are expecting from Usyk in terms of stepping up and fighting Joshua will be a similar size discrepancy in a division where power is more of a factor. Wilder did the same thing against Fury really.

    Check out the bit at the end where Crawford is standing next to Usyk and remember to remind yourselves that's a CW and a welterweight who has only had one fight at 147 and has come up from 135.

    CW 200lbs

    WW 147lbs

    He could be a titlist, maybe if he fights Ramirez. Prograis would get in that ass. And stop making excuses for a future L that might not come. Trust in the man's skill.
