    The Champions currently are Josh Taylor, Regis Prograis, Maurice Hooker and Jose Ramirez. Would you favor Lomchenko to beat any of these guys?

    He beats Ramirez. I don't like the Hooker fight for him at all, Hooker has a massive 15 inch reach advantage on Loma and he hits deceptively hard.

    Hooker can’t use his reach, Loma owns him.

    He can win against Hooker and Ramirez. Would struggle and have slim chance against both Taylor and Prograis.

    He would beat both Taylor and Prograis. I'd bet money on that.

    Hooker is crap lol! Hooker is one of the weakest champs in all of boxing. Ability wise Loma is a whole different world, despite being undersized he'd school a bum like Hooker easily.

    P4P I think Lomachenko is the best boxer on the face of the planet ......but have you seen Hooker's arms? They're 10 feet long!

    He might be able to beat one of those guys but Loma is a small dude who doesnt have big pop in his punches. Loma is great but 140 is pushing it.

    Yes. I’d favor Loma over all of the guys at 140, since 140 is very weak at the moment.

    Look what happened to Linares when he moved up against a battleworn guy ranked outside of the top ten. Doesn’t bode well.

    Loma may beat everyone at 140 he's talented but it wouldnt be easy and all of the top 4 fighters mentioned here could beat or even stop him.
