Can Mikey Garcia beat Lomachenko? Why Pedraza seemed to have so much success

Of course, Mikey can beat him but I think it would be an easier night for Loma against Mikey than it was against Pedraza. Pedraza, though not nearly as talented as Mikey, brought other problems for Loma to the fight, reach being the biggest one. Loma had to figure out how to get inside while not getting caught. I know I am probably in the minority on that opinion but I think Loma outpoints Mikey easier.

One of the dumber posts I have seen in a while.

 

this is not true

 

Highly unlikely salido gave him fits and beat loma not to mention jlc is bigger and better than salido who was never the man of a division like jlc was.

 

Your response is even dumber. The poster i quoted said that loma was a superuor boxer to pbf i responded saying superior boxers to pbf dont lose to a guy with 12 loses the level of salido period end of discussion that can't be refuted if you dont like it too bad.

 

Pbf beat the **** outta ndou pull countering and landing 3 consecutive straight right hands on him in the process a highlight reel. some thing ive never seen anyboxer do. The level of difficulty in that was 10 out of 10. Ndou had to retire after the beating pbf gave him. I suggest you go back and rewatch tge highlights or the entire fight because you clearly havent seen it and dont know what you're talking about.

 

Far more to do with Pedraza switching stance than anything to do with his right arm. Complete misconception that he didn't throw it in the fight - whenever he hurt Pedraza and Pedraza went into defensive mode, Loma smashed him with the full arsenal of his punches. Didn't look to have missed a step to me. Rusty, perhaps, but Pedraza is a good fighter - and an awkward one to boot.

 

I can read, Pimp. Still, it is one of the most ludicrous posts I have seen. 396-1 as an amateur. Twice Olympic gold medalist. 12-1 as a pro. Almost stopped Salido in the 12th round of his second fight as a pro, despite repeated low blows by Salido. Fought for world championship in only his second fight. Was the first 3-division champion in only 12 bouts. But, no, he is not a superior fighter.

 

Agreed. A boxers prime can vary in age, based on their level of experience and skills gained, going beyond their physical prime. But, when you see a fighter with the level of experience that Loma has, you know he’s technically at his best, so his decline will go hand in hand with his physical decline.

 

The thing is though I've rewatched the fight and I'm not even a massive Loma fan. It's just that despite all this talk that Pedraza gave Loma problems he simply didnt. He barely landed. He landed basically nothing of note apart from the 10th round.

What Pedraza did do for the most part was prevent Loma from teeing off on him.

 

As a pro he has not proven to be superior. He lost to salido a guy who had 12 loses let that sink in.

 

I gave pedraza 3 rounds in the fight. he showed you a long guy who can box and move can frustrate loma he also showed that loma can be caught on the way in. If pedraza had power and more accuracy loma would have had his hands full

 

Yo, Pimp. You forgot to add your most important reason why you think Fraud would beat Loma. Hint: It's like you like your coffee.
