    You can't even spell a fighters name correctly. Do you really think anyone is going to take your opinion seriously?? :risas3:

    I did have him losing close. I call it fair I thought he beat de la Hoya and maidiana so I'm not hating I was just saying Floyd wasn't facing elite level fighters in his second fight. Can't compare the situation. Talk soon big hands

    Floyd would never have lost to Salido.
    Yeah but would Floyd have fought him this early like Loma?
    Well I've looked at the first 5 fights of the top 80 fighters in history. I don't understand your point or excuse. Floyd wouldn't have lost to Salido.
    Garcia quit against Saldio because he butted his nose and broke it and Garcia had trouble breathing.
    Yeah but Salido hit Loma low and didn't make weight.
    So did Loma and Saldio fight or did Loma and TR cancel the fight?
    They fought and Saldio won. Loma has more raw talent than Floyd. Castillo beat Floyd.
    Castillo beat Floyd? You're joshing lol.
    No he beat Floyd. He outlanded Floyd to the body and the refs ignored it.
    Well what about Floyd going to his head and body and using the jab?
    The crowd booed Floyd.
    The crowd was pro Castillo. Many winners get booed after they win decisively.
    Floyd lost.
    Foh.

    Same ole same ole

    Neither were the top 80 fighters in history so i don't see your point. When a trainer and manager think that you're ready to fight a guy they set it up. Loma lost, and all we get is Frankenstein's excuses. Foh lol...

    People forget Floyd at his lighter weights was a monster puncher and technician who developed to be an accurate and efficient shooter who maintained his ground (in its majority). Lomachenko is an even more masterful technician ... however I highly doubt he'll enjoy floyds longetivity due to his super athletic and cerebral style

    Loma called the shots to step up. As for the Point Loma stepped up to fight for a world title in his 2nd pro bout (not including wsb) to say Floyd wins that fight in his 2nd bout is trolling but you know that, to find out who's better why don't you just ask your mom who has the bigger hands lmao. That will settle it. Hahaha

    We don't know whether Floyd would win or lose in his 2nd pro fight. We do know that Salido lost Frankenstein. And we also know that you're one ugly fat ass mother****er lmao. #Fact

    Exactly. Floyds second fight was against Reggie Sanders who ended up being 12-47. And he didn't even stop that scrub.

    They both look like goats when up against fighters who give them space and time to do what they want and can have trouble against certain pressure fighters.

    Actually Lomochenko lost but I can't expect you to keep the facts straight, big hands damage babies in the womb.

    "raw" talent, maybe, Total overall talent developed from hard work and dedication? i don't believe so, loma still has a long way to go and is still improving though, but Iv'e not come across another fighter that has mastered the sweet science like floyd, I can see how his style appears boring to many people especially the later half of his career , Loma looks more exciting he takes more risks, Floyd literally takes NO risks, He doesn't care if you think hes boring, he cares about getting the W and that is an ART that takes extreme self discipline and patience, you have to put your ego aside, knowing the fans want you to take risks, want you to loose your composure, want you to get drawn into a fight, floyd literally dose what he wants and will not be swayed by anybody else no matter how much pressure is put on him.

    I totally see how people hate floyds style and call it boring, but for me its simply fascinating because i understand it completely and it fascinates me how nobody is able to lay a glove on the man. The guy is a defensive genius

    I don't see why people are comparing Floyd and Loma so much.

    They ultimately boxed in different eras, Floyd is not coming back. They also have a different style and their careers had different concepts.

    Loma is an unique fighter, he does things his way. The reason why he lost to Salido is because he's one of the rare (if not the only) ATG-level fighter who would fight such guy in his second fight. That would be like Joshua fighting Chisora or even Povetkin in his second pro fight.

    Lomachenko and Floyd are both wizards. That said the simple answer is no and Lomachenko will never reach Floyd's heights in boxing or success. Just the truth of the matter. Anthony Joshua has already surpassed all the players of this generation and Floyd himself would still be a top draw today over most.

    They're pretty on par if I'm being honest, but Floyd at 130 put on some spectacular performances One as an underdog to Corrales which was highly impressive! I've seen Loma look very good at 130, but I can't say he's looked spectacular yet... so in that regards, I have to say no.
