    Heavily factoring the same size disadvantage that Pacquiao had to give up for a decade.

    But I agree with the point. Pac's résumé is insane, and this is mostly minor compared to his 2000-2009 résumé.

    I'd say top 10 is too high personally but every list is subjective

    The way that Loma is going, the opponents that he is facing... He will never have Pac-Man's resume or even come remotely close to it.

    For those that claim Loma is already knocking on the door of becoming an ATG, I can only laugh at your dubious and far-fetching beliefs.

    Also, IF Loma had Pac's resume from say 2005 to 2019 he would be an ATG.

    However, only Pac has Pac's resume so that's why Pac is an ATG and Loma is (currently) not.

    What if he had Pac's resume from 2010-2019?

    If Loma was to go up to 147 and 154 and win all the fights you listed above then yes, he would be an ATG.

    However, I really don't see Loma building a legacy that great. He is fighting too many cans to build up something with Pac levels of greatness.

    If Loma had peds and secret shakes he probably would've done better than Pacquiao.

    If Pacquiao had VIs he may well have gone undefeated

    Lomachenko doesn't seem to have the urge to fight the type of fights that would make his resume match his skill. Not many boxers will step out of their comfort zones like a Pacquiao, Roy Jones, Henry Armstrong and those type of guys. Outside of Russell Jr., Lomachenko has seemed reluctant to fight the best guys around his weight class.

    He is an ATG talent that will never reach ATG status. And will be matched (and overrated) in fantasy H2H match ups for years to come, on this very forum.

    He could become an ATG 130lber, but it doesn't look like he's going back down.

    Like who ? All the opponents he beat in 135 so far are Ring top ten rankers. Two world champions and two first ranked mandatory challengers.

    Davis doesn't want to fight him. And Garcia chose to lose to bigger man in fear of losing to smaller guy.

    Please don't say 140. I've seen picture of Loma and Josh Taylor. He is like a midget.
