    What i was trying to say was that I wasnt sticking up for one fighter overbthe other, I actually like Loma more and dont think he "ducked" Pac.

    i think 130 is his best weight, 135 is pushing it but he will continue to move up to at least 140

    I got that. I don't think there was a ducking at all. All Pac has done is mention Lomachenko, just as all boxers do when talking about multiple potential opponents.

    Davis and Berchelt are better than Linares p4p, but Linares is a lot bigger than both those guys. Linares > Macahdo easily though.

    No need to go higher? When did that start? What happened to daring to be great by going up? Can't make 147? If you're the best you don't need to.. That's what was said a few short years ago...lol

    On the mikey garcia moving up fight spence and the loma acusation of not being willing to move up to fight pac.

    I dont side either way, but surely it cant be disputed that mikeys style would suit fighting the bigger stronger fighter, more than loma style would???

    i did share, and im very relaxed. loma himself has said only at 135 is a pac fight feasible. im not blaming him for it, but im also not handing out extra credit despite it. im saying the man himself is telling us the score, we should listen.

    The people that bring up that argument are idiots. Mannys speed, power and strength even as a small fighter are what allowed him to move up the way he did. Loma doesnt have any of those physical gifts atleast not at mannys level. Loma is just incredibly skilled on a level we havent seen in a long , long time.
