Boxing historians/aficionados give their take on Pretty Boy Floyd vs Lomachenko

When did TMT drug addicts become historians/aficionados?

 

There are levels to the boxing game, Loma is a level below pac who is a level below Mayweather. Morales and Barerra would Hamed lomachenko.

 

Joe Rogan said a good thing about Lomo and Floyd in that he said Floyd has the super combinations put down but in Lomo he has the combos and the amazing footwork due to the dance lessons ect.
To be honest I’d have em even so if they fought each other four times you’d probably have a few wins each and a few draws.

 

In a nutshell.

 

You can do all the acrobatics and dance moves you want. You still have to close distance. Floyd would toy Lomachenko and his bs. Linares when he finally fought smart and tall put Loma on his ass. Floyd would land all night on dance revolution. It wouldn’t even be a close fight. Manny had magical angles and footwork as well. Floyd shut that bs down. Loma doesn’t possess half the threat Manny did. Just the cold hard truth.

 

You cant compare a past prime Manny to a prime Loma. Which is what you just did. Maybe if Floyd had shutdown a 2009 Pacquiao this post would be valid.

 

Domestic level? JLC was a top 10 P4P ranked fighter and arguably one of the best LW of his era. He would have beat the **** outta Linares who couldn't even deal with Demarco. And stop acting like Loma was 18 when he was in his second pro fight he wasn't he was a full grown man 26 it's not the same thing and people need to stop acting like it is. Loma was not 19 or 18 in his second pro fight and what he has done is impressive but stop acting like he was some teenager when he turned pro because he wasn't. If Loma would have fought Salido at 19 in his second pro fight he would have been destroyed.

 

PBF beats that version of Pac even easier PBF was also prime then and that version of Pac was far more limited and reckless.

 

A prime Loma got beat up by an old shop worn gatekeeper and dropped by a decent but not great champion in linares.

 

If anything his fight with Linares made me even more of a believer that he wouldn't beat him. PBF is 100000 light years better than Linares more durable to and if Linares got him with that right hand and dropped him he would get hit all night long by PBF's. PBF's straight right hand is one of the best in boxing history.It is far more accurate powerful and he can either lead or counter with it. Loma would get hurt dropped or stopped by it. On top of that he's too small for PBF the reach disadvantage he has in this fight can't be overlooked. PBF is longer than Linares and knows how to fight tall much better than Linares he has a better jab and his defense is light years better to boot. PBF beats Loma 99/100 times he's a horrible styles match up for him. He can't outbox him because PBF will fight tall on him and catch when he comes in and PBF can bully him on the inside and bust him up.

 

Was Loma a 19 year old teenager in his 2nd pro fight? I'll wait for your answer.

 

Floyd would have wrecked Lomachenko at 130 or 135.

 

Yes I can because Manny now at a lower weight would still give Loma more trouble than he wants. That Manny would absolutely kill Loma with his weak chin and overrated defense.

 

That Manny would have simply shown Loma no respect and kept coming at him. Loma busts up pretty easily and his face would have been torn to shreds by Pac's power.
