We all saw what bigger taller fighters do to Loma, Imagine what a very skilled Crawford would do to him...
We all saw what athletic 5’6 boxers (Gamboa) do to Crawford, imagine what an infinitely more skilled Lomachenko would do to him...
Can that guy by outboxed (evidence says yes), can that guy be hurt (evidence says yes). Did that guy fight anyone anywhere near Lomachenko’s level. Certainly not. Crawford still doesn’t have any career defining fights, the closest is the Gamboa fight. And we saw how easily Gamboa outboxed him before the size and Gamboa’s lack of discipline took over.
We saw him get knocked out. Gamboa is far more explosive and athletic than Loma. But I'm not surprised you're picking Loma . We saw what 2 long boxers in Pedraza/Linares did to Loma, imagine what an infinitely more skilled and infinitely harder hitter Crawford would do to him...
135 is above Lomas optimal weight and probably below Crawfords, but Crawford looked more comfortable there against better opposition. I’ll take Crawford by UD or late stoppage.
Same thing Gamboa did to Crawford, won some rounds. And unlike Gamboa/Crawford, Linares knocked that ass down!
