    He was asked a rhetorical question, he’s not expecting him to do anything as the fight will never happen.

    Also if I’m not mistaken this is Lomachenko’s 3rd weight himself and remember Rigondeaux was offered the fight at 126 and turned it down then took the fight at 130 later on. He only had himself to blame.

    Yes and it will be inoues 7th?

    My point is he’s happy enough to entertain that idea but petrified of meeting Pac at any weight above 135. After giving the excuse that he won’t fight Pac cos Pac is too old. Now it’s just Pac is too big and when PACs team floated the idea of 140, it became 135 or nothing.

    He already jumped up 2 divisions and is way too small for 135. Inoue looks very very skinny, his build is similar to Pacman, Inoue could make 130 without issues

    You won’t see the Inoue fight just like the PAC fight will never materialise and iirc it was Pac who first mentioned facing Loma, perhaps in the same vain as Loma about Inoue.

    Inoue is special but he will lose before he gets to 130imo if he does infact move up the weights. I’d be more inclined to see him fave Rigo tbh.

    Rather see it at a slightly lower weight like featherweight to make it abit more fairer in weight. Would also like to see inoue at the weight first so I can see if his power carries up.

    Still besides the point. The point is he is entertaining the idea, why doesn’t he take the high-road and say inoue too small for him? The way he says he’s too small for Pac.

    It wasn’t PACs team. Loma was asked hypothetically and he said ye, he said it had to be at 140 initially. And I think their latest statement is never, including 135, though I could be mistaken on that.


    they're all similar sized men tbh. Pac weighed less than both as a pro and weighed the same as Loma at the same age and they’re all around in or the same height.

    The only difference is how much they bulked up overtime voluntarily.

    Loma is very skinny, if he hit the weights he would easily weigh 140-147. He’s a stick atm.

    Berchelt is an absolute must.

    No, Arum nixed the fight after Loma and Rigondeaux had agreed on the weight. Even Loma acknowledged that Arum made a low ball offer.

    They aren't the same height though. Loma is taller than both of them.

    Loma has literally every advantage.

    It wouldn't be competitive

    Loma has a tendency to fight smaller guys so I'm not surprised.

    Weren't Campbell, Linares, Crolla and Pedraza all bigger than him?

    Why not Miguel Berchelt?

    Come on Loma, don't make me dislike you.

    Correction, Pac already said he's willing to go to 135 but Loma said the fight is "irrelevant" since Pac is "too old".
    He's actually saying that to the top10 P4P fighter who just defeated Thurman and is slated to put up a good fight against Spence, Bud and Mikey, all current top 10 P4P boxers, all the while holding a height and reach advantage over him.

    I used to be a huge fan, Loma.

    this is how you work huh? Just how you pretend you were a 3G fan once. But how you irrational hate over... not fighting who you want. Idiot...

    "He didn't fight who I wanted, I hate him now :llorona::llorona: "
