    So Loma is in your opinion a top 5 lightweight? By the
    way, Camacho was almost untouchable in his prime,
    he definitely wouldn't have been put on his ass
    by the fighter that put Lomo on his ass.

    LOL. If you say so.

    Duran, Chavez, Whitaker, Floyd... that'll get us started right there with four fighters who beat Loma comfortably.

    Loma doesn't last the distance with the first two.

    Camacho was not untouchable at all.

    Both those guys were better than a prime Camacho.

    Not before trying to get through a brilliant jab first, Loma is more skilled than DeJesus.

    Mark, Just stop. You don't have to be such an ass all the time. I agree Lomo is a great fighter but let's wait until his career is over before you start comparing him to Duran and Sweet Pea. Stop speaking in absolutes when you really are no where near an expert.

    This is what Camacho was doing at age 21 while your boy was still playing around with headgears.

    No matter how much you watch, Camacho's speed in his prime was truly awe inspiring.

    When I 1st saw him , I was thinking possible atg. ( The Rojas fight for a National championship) Saw damn near all of his fights. The video is from The Limon Fight ( after this, I was thinking possibly the G O.A.T) Camacho at this point was levels better than anything Loma has shown so far. Of course drugs, crazy lifestyle, and Rasario completely changed what he certainly could have accomplished.
    But Loma hasn't shown anything close to prime Camacho. Jeez , he's only had 15 pro fights, and he lost one of those.
