Lomachenko, best competition in 1st 6 fights ever?

Inoue. Short amateur career, age, and crushing dominance over Adrien Hernandez puts him past Lomachenko. Inoue couldn't legally drink in the United States one year ago.

 

Saensak Muangsurin and Veeraphol Sahaprom

 

Still got floyds nutz in your mouth huh? 🤔

 

In terms of greatness after first 6 fights:
1. Muangsurin
2. Inoue
3. Lomachenko

EDIT: I forgot Sahaprom.

 

You don't rate Sahaprom up there?. Chuvatana and Konadu are easily the two best fighters any of these guys fought in their first 6 fights.

The Veeraphol-Daorung fight is a classic back and forth chessmatch between two quality technicians, and while Konadu stopped him in the second, it was a shootout where Nana had been on the floor earlier.

 

Naoya Inoue definitely gets the nod with his wins over #1 ranked Adrian Hernandez as well as Taguchi.

Pete Rademacher was the Olympic Gold medalist who fought champion Floyd Patterson in his debut. He also followed that up with Zora Folley in his second pro bout.

Perhaps Muangsurin and Sahaprom.

Anybody who faced a legendary fighter in their first 6 bouts, which there are literally countless, would have faced better competition in their first 6 bouts. For example, Joe Jeannette fought Jack Johnson in his 4th ever fight.

 

Oleg Maskaev....... Well, I'll cheat a bit and include his next fight :yep

 

Maskaevs debut opponent Alexander Miroshnichenko is one of the best debuts that I can think of. Top class amateur with 21 pro fights under his bet and no losses. Maskaev really took no short cuts in his career.

 

Kazuto Ioka won the WBC from consensus #1 ranked Oleydong Sithsamerchai in his 7th career fight.

 

Just on paper. De facto, it was the same type of a journeyman as Chonlatarn Piriyapinyo, Loma's 4th opponent, is. A good record, but no even quarter-credible wins.

However, if you want me to name any better debut, I would need to give it a deep thought and hit the google, I'll admit that.

 

Dude has a better resume in 6 fights than Wilder has in 36 fights.

 

A handful of Thais, Inoue. Tanaka has pretty good comp for 5 fights

 

Fidel LaBarba fought Jimmy McLarnin 3 times in his first 5 fights.
