ok a couple of quick notes. 1. If Loma took the fight, dominated pac, would he get any recognition or be accused of ducking lopez/davis. You would say pac is old and shot and it counts for nothing. 2. If loma gets caught by a lucky shot, he loses his career worth. Its boxing, it can happen. 3. If loma beats Pac, by only a slight lead, His stock goes down again. 4. If he chooses to clean out his division, he gets called a ducker. Any situation he can win ? None. For whats it worth, i think Loma would do a big number on Pac, only due to pac slowing and gassing from age. Loma would come on too strong after round 5 and just out point him. Pac's movement is also getting slightly slower and i dont think would cause Loma too much trouble.
Linares gave Loma a very good fight and then went on to get slaughtered in a round by Cano at 140 his next time out. If Pacquiao makes 140 comfortably he stops Loma.
since making that statement, loma has gone on to solidify his greatness with crolla and pedraza instead. who obviously mean more than a win over manny. thats why hes fighting.
Can't really duck someone when you're a 3 divisions apart. But then loma shouldn't have said that age thing. Dug himself a grave there
Thurman loses, they take it out on Loma! LOL The fight was gossiped about around the time of the Horn fight when Loma was a SFW if I remember correctly, he lost to Horn & it slipped away as most thought it would be unreasonable to drain an old WW who was losing to school teachers.. Has PAC said Loma has ducked him? I highly doubt it.. You can't criticise Loma & his pops for not predicting Pacs later career surge.. Not many did! If u want to believe Loma ducked him then go ahead but I suspect Loma & his team don't have much experience with the benefits of industrial scale, high level doping so probably thought after Horn he was on a downward spiral due to age etc.. There was no testing for this fight remember! Pacs fans & the Loma salt brigade do way more talking about Loma than he does.. If your tiny bug brains think Loma is ducking a 40 year old WW then go ask that WW why he isn't making an attempt to move down in weight or talk the issue up himself??? Yes PAC has bounced back since Horn but his intentions are at WW, quite clearly.. & I hear no talk of this fight anywhere other than forum posters on BN24 who conveniently forget 'enhancing' benefits or forget to factor in the whole timeline/story of events when it comes to discussion like this because it helps stem the flow of tears that Loma induces on a weekly basis .. There trajectories aren't meeting any time soon.. In fact if anyone is more relevant to Loma it's Crawford! It's funny how the pea brain LDBC deflect onto Loma again.. Candace Owens is marrying a white Brit.. it's not Lomas fault
Loma should take it IMO, back when the fight was on tbe cards it wasn't as lucrative because Pav didnt have his back to back wins, now it makes total sense.
Slow ass tranny-eyebrowed Pedraza was ripping Lomachenko w/ jabs and counters. A jab from Pacquiao would probably drop or buckle Lomachenko.
1. Yes he will get credit 2. I don't think his stock will go down. Loma coming up to fight a bigger guy hes probably even expected to lose 3. Why would his stock go down by beating pac? Pac is an ATG 4. If he cleans up his division why the hell would he get called a ducker then? Anyway there's no duck here they are 3 div apart. But loma shouldn't have said manny is too old cause he dug himself a grave there
You guys are too good. This fight was never , ever real. Manny's never going down to 140lbs again. No matter how much we say that it's his "natural" weight class....he would have done it by now if that was the case. There is no meeting in the middle there. Of course it's not even a "middle ground" anyways since Loma is too small for 135lbs. If you want Loma to go to 147lbs....then he gets smoked inside 3rds. What is proven by that??
& before anyone cites Rigo.. it's not the same! When this potential Loma PAC fight was doing the rounds Loma was operating at SFW, PAC at WW.. that's 17lbs difference, not 8! & Rigo was calling for the fight & chasing Loma.. as he couldn't get any of his rival champions at his weight to fight him.. Wheras Loma is on his 3rd belt in 4 fights at LW! If Loma is ducking PAC cos he fought a smaller guy then Spence & GGG are ducking Canelo & Gvozdyk lol Why aren't they on Crawfords case? He's far more relevant to PAC... Also Thurman had fought once in what? 3 years? & looked like **** in it.. Very good win & huge props but Keith looked like a static punching bag at times In there with Manny wheras Loma would be like an annoying bee buzzing around a drained Manny.. I don't get why some are so fixated on the fight! Because power aside Loma would have the advantages.. why? Well they'd definitely insist on strict testing & no way could Loma make 147 either.. he'd also be much younger! PAC wouldn't give up those advantages just to fight a LW! You know it deep down.. you just like to hate for hatings sake Oh ye, & you're all hating on Loma now for taking the Rigo fight so shouldn't u be hating on Manny for wanting to fight (if he ever really did) a SFW instead of using it to dump on Loma? Slight inconsistency there lol..
