How far is Lomachenko from being as great as Floyd Mayweather?

Oscar wasnt shot against pbf log off.

 

They're on the same general level...both exceptional, with Floyd being a bit better.

Loma started a bit late in the pros and is not fighting often enough, nor getting the kind of names Floyd had.

He's very unlikely to catch up to Floyd in terms of resume and greatness.

 

The Pac fight was well after Pacs prime, a prime during which Floyd blatantly ducked him..as his norm.

Canelo was 22 yrs old....a bit green in the eyes of any objective observer.

Floyd was a great fighter, but no where near the skill level of Lomachenko.

93% Championship fights for Loma. Again, when Floyd achieves that you can log back on. Until then pimp off...lol

 

He didnt duck him stop with this myth 2:30 of this video

Pac ducked a prime pbf because he didnt want random testing roach said it was their fault. I won't let people like you continue to spread this myth, enough.
Pbf was older than pac and retired basically 1 fight later meanwhile pac is still fighting at a high level. That win keeps getting better and better and ages like fine wine.

Canelo wasn't green he was the unified champ at 154 with over 40 fights and ranked in the top 10 p4p. You fail to mention that pbf was faded 36 in his 5th weight class his worst and he still won going away. That is arguably the best win of the last decade.

Where was this great skill level when he was exposed for his inability to fight on the inside against a guy who had 12 loses in salido?? Where was it? Pbf is more complete and skilled than loma he can fight at all ranges unlike loma he's a better counter puncher and his defense is better. Loma is great but he's not as skilled as pbf. When he beats and schools guys on the level of pac and canelo get back to me until then log off.

 

about 2 big wins away

 

I don't think it's possible for him to reach it tbh. Although he's one of the GOAT's in amateur boxing, he's already peaked in his pro career and I see him losing in the next 2-3 years, the little guys just don't age well although Pac is a rare exception. In order to make it close, he has to do something exceptional, but there's nothing around him to push him towards greatness at the level of Floyd. He's with Bob Arum and Arum is gonna give him more gimmie in-house fights until his age finally starts to show like he's doing with Crawford right now.

 

Loma will never go up to 147. He has already said 140 weight is too much for him.

 

This...

 

Vastly more skilled
Dares to be great

Loma shits all over Floyd

 

34, drug an alcohol issues, it was his 4th fight in 4 years and retired just two fights after the FlIVd fight. Not shot? lol gtfoh

 

I love how the video is edited cutting off anything he said after that comment. lol

 

So has Pacquiao?

 

He is way off, closer than most current fighters but still way off. Floyd was a different breed man. Won the strap early and dominated ever since.

 

He doesn't have the time in the pro ranks, frankly.

 

It really depends on how high you rate amateur boxing compare to professional boxing as competition. Because Loma's boxing history is not exactly apple-to-apple with Floyd.

Floyd turned professional at age 19 and ended his amateur record 84-8 with Olympic bronze medal as his highest achievement. Loma, on the other hand, turned pro very late at the age of 25, but has extensive amateur records of 396-1 and decorative achievement of wiping clean all the major tournaments including 3 world championships and 2 Olympic titles. You can say that more than 50% of Loma's overall boxing career is in amateur, while Floyd made his name the most in his pro-boxing career.

In regards of their P4P status, Floyd is widely regarded as one of the best undefeated boxer of all time and has fought so many legends. However, Loma is both top P4P in amateur and professional boxing. Still working his legacy and half way in his career.

I think Loma is still behind Floyd in term of legacy. But his skill is really close if not the same level as FMJ.
