    Yes he does. And it's Pac's strength and tenacity which I believe allows him to have won this hypothetical fight.

    He stands in front of you blocking your view switching sides the best way to deal with it is to take a step back and that's something Manny dose naturally

    Pac overwhelms Loma. Loma doesn't hit hard enough to discourage Pac. I mean, even against hard hitters, he isn't discouraged much. Too much speed, power and relentlessness. It would haywire Loma.

    Man, this is a tough one. I am sorry these guys are from different eras. Manny is still freakishly good at his age. At legit 135, I have it 50-50. Manny is fast and powerful and Loma is so smart and crafty. They both have great stamina and speed. Manny relies on speed more than Loma who tries to solve his opponent like a puzzle and take him apart.

    The Manny who was knocking everyone out a decade ago could probably beat anyone. He was on some special vitamins or something. Loma looks naturally smaller although Manny isn’t big. At 130 or under, I think Loma wins, at 135 it’s a tossup. Above 135, Manny. He’s small upper body but Manny has big legs and seems like a bigger guy. I’m amazed he’s still able to fight at this level. These two are among my favorites so I’m glad they didn’t fight because I would have to root for both. Two amazing, entertaining fighters.

    Yes cite 2 guys that’s did not beat Pac. Dumbass.

    And if you can’t work out why jeff horn had some success then you are an actual moron.

    Hint, it’s being very dirty. Pac has similar issues with dirty fighter Sanchez. Loma is about as clean as it gets.

    Ask him if any version of Sali
    Ignore the imbecile. Does Salido beat Pacquiao?

    Fact is Manny is one of the very best to ever do it, a once in a generation talent.

    Im not saying Loma isn’t. I’m saying prove it. Morales, Barerra, Marquez, Cotto, Margarito.

    Luke Campbell doesn’t quite stack up

    Ok. Mayweather then? He's a slick boxer.

    So Pac only gets beat by dirty fighters, slick fighters (Mayweather) and tenacious fighters (Bradley)?

    Oh, and tiny guys. Pacquiao also gets beat, as in knocked out by tiny guys such as Torrecampo and Singsurat.

    Pacquiao is a great fighter. Do not deify him though. He can be and has been beat by fighters with a variety of styles.

    He's been knocked out by flyweights.

    Let's not pretend he's invincible.

    Pacman TKO Loma no later than 6 rounds.

    Loma probably boxes Pacquiao's ears off but if he gets hit it can get ugly broken nose or broke eye sockets.

    But I feel like Loma boxes and counters he should be able to out box Manny Pacquiao. He is a superior boxer.

    Skills pay the bills.

    You Loma haters are laughable, grasping at straws. Loma was in his second pro fight against a guy who didn’t even attempt to make weight and went on to foul him so many times he should have been DQd. Against Manny or anyone else, Salido would have been DQd. Loma’s first 12 round fight and he still almost had Salido out by the end. Lost a split decision. Who else fights this type of opponent in his second pro fight? I give the guy credit for taking that kind of chance in his second pro fight. Other guys are too busy protecting the zero. Maybe Loma should have padded his record early in his career as every other pro does. Too many guys in boxing these days are only concerned with protecting the zero. At least Salido had the brains to avoid a rematch with Loma. That would not have ended well for the coward Salido.
