    Loma is far more skilled than Buchanan was, his jab feints and active feet would confuse Buchanan.

    Hard call, at 135 pounds Ken was a great lightweight who could fight with any 135'er who ever lived. Loma's resume ain't that thick at lightweight.Let's see how Loma does against that kid Lopez . Right now it's a 50/50 fight for me leaning towards Buchanan.

    Lomo, easily. He's way too fast and skilled. Did you know Lomchecnko is hit less than 19% of the time in his fights. This is amazing considering his style.

    I think this is a 50/50 fight.
    An easy win for the “more skilled” Loma?
    Whatever happens here this isn’t an easy win for Loma, you wonder whether people have actually seen Buchanan fight.

    Lomachenko wins. Ken buchanan was a very good boxer sure but not how good as loma. I knew the first guy who did beat buchanan .
    ,Miguel Velázquez he is from Tenerife canary islands like me

    Noway is this an easy fight. Ken was competitive with Roberto ****ing Durán! If Loma wins it's a hard fought, SD type win.

    Ken fought Lauguna who is as fast or faster then Loma.
    Ken fought Duran who can put WAY more pressure on fighters then Loma can.
    Ken fought Watt who while I dont think is as slick as Loma was indeed a difficult southpaw to deal with.
    Win or lose Ken gives Loma a fight- I tend to lean towards Ken as this is his natural weight.

    I mean Loma never exactly had a walk in the park against Luke Campbell.

    Buchanan would have backed off more than Cambell and Loma is awesome of the front foot.
