    If Mayweather came back and won it fair and square then he'd be the best ever, period.

    Fmj is simply too old to beat Loma, I think.

    Fyi: Fmj isn't anywhere NEAR way bigger than Loma. Truth be told they're actuality very similar in size. Fact

    I am not a hater but probably I will not live so long to see somebody beating Mayweather. He still has one of the best defensive skills ever...

    He is way bigger. Loma is the same height as Pac but has a smaller frame. Floyd dwarfed Pac.

    Not once they were in the ring with similar boxing shoes. Outside of the ring fmj where's heels on his frigging shoes

    He was 5'7" in his prime but now he's more like 5'6" at the most. Fmj has the better reach and that's all. He was always (every single fight I know) the physically lighter fighter.

    You Clowns were calling for fmj to fight the best at MW (that's how insanely great he was, yes was past tense) while claiming anything over 135 is "too much" for Loma. And you're trying to compare their talent, LMMFAO. Fmj was 10 the fighter Loma COULD EVER BE !!!

    This is an interesting fantasy match up. How do the fighters use their size? If you look back these fighters careers they are mostly skill, speed and reaction type of fighters. Size doesn't matter as much if you don't impose it on your opponent. Neither fighter never relied on their size that much. Just a thought. Loma beats Floyd now but not so sure about him beating young May.

    Floyd's too old.

    Itd be a phenomenal achievement if he came back and beat Loma.

    I'd still pick Floyd. While he is past it, he still has his legs, reach, and countering ability. He's also bigger than Lomachenko, and has master boxing ability, especially against smaller guys, who will feel his pity pat more than a big strong natural welter would.

    Mayweather has a massive size advantage but he's also as old as F.

    I actually think Loma can do this.

    Floyd looked awful against Conor and I don't buy the "I wuz carrying him" bs argument. Loma will beat a shot Floyd.

    Mayweather: he still looks sharp in recent videos, he already successfuly adapted his style to compensate for his age and above all else, he holds a significant size old advantage over Loma.

    That said, based purely on his skill set and youth, I still give Loma roughly a 3 out of 10 chance of upsetting Floyd (which on an unrelated note is also the same chance I give Garcia of upsetting Spence.)
