Can someone explain how Lomachenko is top 10 P4P?

Good post.

 

Rigo's resume is utter **** since Donaire because all the top guys are ducking him. And dont try to minimize the Donaire win, going into the fight with Rigo, most people had Donaire pfp top 3.

 

I didn't, most I've seen didn't have him at #3 either. Top 3 were Pac, May and Ward, then there was also Martinez and Marquez. He was about as high as #5 from what I recall.

 

Everybody has their own blend of accomplishment and H2H weightings to determine what P4P is.

What it boils down to is that there aren't 10 better boxers right now than Lomachenko. His H2H prowess is enough to make up for not having a deep resume just yet in my book.

If you weigh the resume so heavily that the skills don't outweigh it for you, fine, but anyone with eyes can see that he's one of the 10 most skilled fighters in boxing right now, comfortably. Those who weigh skill heavily need to have a spot carved out for him.

 

Donaire is a quality fighter but he is overrated.

As for Rigo's resume, it is bad considering he's top 3 P4P, regardless of fighters ducking him. Lomo offered him a fight at 126 and he turned it down.

 

Donaire isn't overrated.

He's a legitimate 4 division world champion, defeating the top guy in each division to do so. He's the best fighter of his era below featherweight.

 

You lose when you fight prime competition when they are prime. What comes around goes around. He could have padded his record by fighting with every damn advantage but he doesn't. Your thread and post are somewhat contradictory. His style may be contradictory for you too, being so damn slick yet aggressive. Who knew **** like that could mix?
