    Teo is 22. Pretty far from prime.

    Not saying that loma clearing 130 also will get him above floyd but it will for sure get his name up there to debate with Floyd.

    Unifies against Teo

    Then beats

    Berchelt
    Tank
    Haney
    Garcia
    Stevenson in future

    Garcia isn't necessary but he beats the rest and he's over Floyd

    He's already skillwise in the other ATG class Floyd has never approached since his offense was always meddling and mediocre in some weights. And when he was more offensive and knockout oritenred be didn't have the ATG defense he was known for. He beats those fighters and his resume is at least close enough that his superior ability puts him ahead

    I rather loma clear up 130. Undisputed in 2 divisions !!! Definitely puts him in the argument.

    He can't match guys like Mayweathers legacy because he turned pro in his mid 20s. But his amateur legacy eclipses Floyds obviously.

    Loma is taller that Lopez too. I don't why everyone is painting Loma as this small little fragile mouse compared to Teo.

    And as we saw against Nakadani, Teo struggles against taller fighters who can box.

    Lopez is clearly thicker set and the bigger individual , consider where Loma was at 23.. he looked tiny, do you think Lopez will be a LW at 32? :lol:.. he'll probably be a WW at least.. & hasn't he recently been walking around at close to 160lbs?

    I used to think Teofemale is a lot bigger as well, but now I'm not so sure. Although height doesn't mean much because you have guys like Ennis who are over 6 feet tall.

    Lol Castillo was Julio Cesar Chavez' sparring partner. Boxing media at the time and HBO said that Castillo was an easy fight for Mayweather. And what happened? He lost that fight clearly and got a gift. Castillo was a straight ahead Mexican brawler, a poor mans Chavez.

    As for Corrales, he was a skinny guy who was weight drained by Floyd making him even more weak and malnourished and was plagued with legal problems going into the fight. Corrales was no world beater or quality well rounded fighter.

    Stevie Johnston and Shane Mosley were the real quality lightweights of the time and Gayweather ducked them

    height means nothing you fool, loma is slightly taller but has a smaller frame than teo. Canelo is shorter than ryan garcia.
