    Lomachenko's resume is SOOOOO bad before LW, like he shouldnt even of been on the P4P list. Plant, Saunders, Kovalev, Jacobs an Smith are better fighters than Commey, Nakatani, Croll and Campbell

    Canelo, of course, has better resume, both overall and recent.

    But why compare him to Loma ? Loma is currently #7 P4P. Why not Usyk or Terence Crawford ? Or Inoue ? Those guys have achieved undisputed status, something that Loma has yet succeed to achieve.

    Canelo has the better record.

    Loma is a vastly superior boxer though.

    If they were the same size, Canelo would get schooled.

    Canelo has questionable wins but Canelo run of beating BJs, Smith, Jacobs and Kovalev are extremely impressive (these are 4 of best career wins, I don't count GGG as I thought he lost the fight).

    So even with excluding the questionable wins, Canelo still has the most impressive resume of the two.

    It's all smoke and mirrors with Canelo's resume. If you take into account Canelo's initial 40 fights beating old men and bums, his losses against 36yo GGGx2, Lara, 36yo Mayweather, and his fixed fights (Kovalev, Yildrim, Smith and Plant), his resume is quite frankly a **** show.

    "Boxing" fans are outright stupid af

    If you take Canelo's dubious decisions into account, they are quite close.

    How is Kambosos B-level? He displayed veteran ring craft and composure in his beat down of Lopez.

    Even if you take the close call wins on Canelo's record away, his resume is still superior

    Not even close. Lomachenko has an underrated record, but Canelo has an ATG resume already. He’s there with Pac, he’s surpassed Hopkins and Floyd. That can’t be held against Lomachenko, when you’re the money man you get to choose your fights and everyone wants to fight you. Canelo has the mentality and skills almost at the Lomachenko level, but Canelo has the pull and the popularity to actually get it all done. The means to achieve his legacy he is chasing. For Lomachenko to get to the Canelo level he would need to unify, rematch Teo at 140 and whip him, before winning the title at 140. Lomachenko doesn’t have the time and the pull to get that happening. If Canelo unifies at light heavy he is unreachable, and then if he wins a heavyweight strap, he’s the GOAT.
