    Say 140. Lomachenko gets to pit his skills against a 42/43 year old Pacquiao who won't bring the size of even the guys in his own division even if they fought at 140/147.

    Lomachenko would make a nice chunk of money and a defeat of Pacquiao would look amazing in his resume.

    If Lomas as great as he's been proclaimed to be by the talking heads, fan boys, and elites, then yes this would be a great fight. I just don't know that Pac can get back to 140 at this point.

    Pacquiao would make 140 w/ ease. 135 might be a challenge, but he'd get there.

    Loma already ducked that fight a long time ago. he was more scared of it than even facing Lopez in the ring in the cowardly fashion that he did.

    Back to back losses are never good for your career.

    That was 38 year old Pac. Pac will be 42. Balances it out a little more.

    Right, a guy who is undersized at 135 should fight a guy who just beat a large 147 fighter, Thurman. You Loma haters are shameless and pathetic. Get a life, you ****ing losers.

    we’ve been hearing for years how PAC can easily make 135. How he puts rocks in his pockets when he weighs in. He’s a special fighter who is still dangerous at his advanced age. Loma should fight at his natural weight, 126 or 130, not against guys who can fight e best at 147.

    Pacquiao's smaller than Campbell, Linares, Lopez, Fortuna, and Bogere on fight night. And Tank was 146.6 on fight night against Gamboa (1-2 pounds lighter than Pacquiao on fight night). Pacquiao is also 42 years old. Plus Lomachenko already said that he didn't want to beat up an old man four years ago.

    Horrible comeback fight for Loma. He didn’t want it before Lopez anyway, no chance he wants it now.

    Last time Pac fought at 140 was in 2009.
    Loma would get 0 credit if he won.

    Besides, he has unfinished business at 135.

    Be an interesting fight, who would have the speed advantage? I'd go with Loma on that , one thing an older guy doesn't want in front of him is speed and quickness.

    As I recall, that older man was chirping about wanting the fight. Loma even agreed to a rehydration clause and was within a few pounds of Rigo on fight night. Loma didn’t even want that fight but it was good to shut up the haters who were accusing him of avoiding the little gremlin from Cuba. Rigo disgraced himself by quitting with that fake injury. It was painful to watch.

    If PAC wants to meet at 135, Loma will probably fight him. I still think PAC is too but for Loma. Maybe Loma needs to get on that special “nutritional” program PAC was on to gain all that muscle. He packed it on like a tiny version of Hollifield.

    What muscle gain?

    At 126, Pac was 144-146 on fight night. At 147, Pac is 148-150 on fight night. Against Margarito, Pac weighed in at 144 for a fight contested at 150 and rehydrated to 148 (same as Salido when Lomachenko fought him).

    keep grasping at straws. You guys are expecting a fighter who can easily make 126 to fight an ATG who easily fights at 146 and can’t make 135.
