    Even although he doesn’t have the power of pac. Mayweather would use his superior assets to negate both marg and loma.

    I just think all prime floyd and pac are better than loma. At any weight you want

    But he has the actual build to carry off that size, Lomo doesn’t, 118lb Duran won a title at 160.....all fighters are different

    The floyd that destroyed corrales would destroy loma.

    Pac that beat morales would destroy loma

    At any weight I don’t agree.

    It also seems to me you as are a lot of other people are quick to try to diminish what Lomachenko has or is doing, just sit back and enjoy it.

    No. He’s good. Great possibly. Resume wise he doesn’t touch either of the afore mentioned. Even the like of Barrera, morales, jmm

    Probably GOAT amateur. But this is the pros

    And he’s only had 15 fights, of course resume wise he isn’t close.

    But compare Floyd, Pac, Barrerra, Morales, JMM, compare their first 15 fights in the pros to Lomachenko....there’s no comparison and Lomo is only just getting going.

    Just getting going? Hes 31.

    Loma is a top, top fighter. But hes not p4p #1. He cant handle pressure.

    Well off the top of my head mayweather won his first title at 19 after 18 pro fights stopping world class Hernandez (who would be classed as probably lomas best win if they fought in same time period)

    Loma fought nearly 400 am fights then came to pros fully grown.

    I think the mayweather achievement is more impressive

    He is just getting going, he’s only been a pro 6 years and regardless of his age name me 1 fighter throughout history who has achieved more in their first 15 fights?

    As for pressure if going off a cheat in Salido beating him means he cannot handle pressure I think you are reaching about and if Lomo is not number 1 P4P who do you think is?

    He does lack power but he is fighting at 135lb which he probably wouldn't be if the division was full of killers. Size plays a part too. But yes, he isn't a puncher

    I think you need someone better than Salido to beat him by swarming him if they're not allowed free nut shots with impunity. Who do we have in mind for that from 126-135?
