    He's been doing risk reward for some time. Hell I think even Marquez IV was risk reward as he thought Marquez would be old. And he looked too old until be caught Pac.

    Like I said though 147 and higher is where the money is at. Americans find it difficult to turn a 130 or 135 pound man into a cash cow.

    make it this is a good fight one coming through one crashing out
    see the levels make it even at 140 is pretty acceptable

    Loma has the hunger, maybe when he's in his mid 30's or rich as hell he'll lose it. Today, I could see him taking the fight.

    My thing is if Pac wants to cut to 135 again so be it. Let him do it. Same with Loma, if he wants to move up to 135 and fight Pac that's his choice.

    I support the fight and want to see it. And I pick Loma to win 8 rounds to 4.

    Yea Vargas is gonna be huge... not. I think he's at 147 because he's comfortable there, not the money.

    As for the poll it depends on the weight at 135 Loma wins at 140 Pac wins.

    Pacquiao just came off of the biggest money fight in history at 147. All his biggest purses have been at 147. So clearly that's where the money is at.

    In his prime wheb he was below 147 he wasn't making as much money.

    Pacquiao will likely be faster and stronger at 135.

    I highly doubt that. He hasn't fought there in almost 10 years this will be just like Oscar trying to fight to at WW when he fought Pac. I'd hate to see Pac end his career like that. He should not fight Loma a guy who has great footwork and lateral movement and at 135 he will get tooled if he does that at his age trust me.:deal:

    Pac would have to do a lot of shabu to make 135 again.

    Oscar failed to rehydrate when be fought Pac and was like a ghost. Pac may be old, but he won't fail to rehydrate like Oscar did.

    Lomachenko doesn't run and actually applies a lot of pressure. Pacquiao feasts on guys that pressure him. So there's that.

    True, but it's a pattern that many followed. Oscar, DLH, Pac, Bradley, Mosley, etc. All tried to getting to 147 because that's where the money was at.

    Okay. Loma is the wrong type of guy to move down that far in weight against especially at Pac's age. Even if they were the same size Loma would be a bad match up for Pac he's not there to be hit and he has fast hands good accuracy can counter well and a high ring IQ.
