If he's as great as we think he is, he should eventually end up at 140-147. He is pretty much the same size as Pacquiao.
I doubt this 5'7 statistic, I've seen various numbers being thrown on his height even on BoxRec. Most of the time he's listed at 5'6.
Read up on it. Pac fights at 147. Eats five times a day to make the weight and hes shorter than loma. Gosh... You guys act like. The human body can only stay at 1 weight class forever... Bunch of dumbasses... Mosley,Pac ,mayweather all started at lower weight classes and as they got older they moved up . quit acting like ita freaking impossible
Now let me say im not saying loma has to move up to 147 to be great. He dosent have to do that. He's still a champion... But i just think people are idiots who say loma can't make 147.
Of course he could make 147, its just they are a totally different proposition for him. He could stay at his current weight, hes already great !
By the time Loma gets to 147 ww division will have a different landscape. M Garcia and Crawdaddy are still very good fights. I'm sure Arum can make Loma vs Crawford if they fight at same weight
Terry Crawhype sure does look pleased that his promotional stablemate won lol This content is protected
Pac is a totally freak anomaly, nobody should be held to his standard on weight jumping lol. For me Loma should only jump to 147 if he cleans out everything sub 140 and there's no way left to challenge himself anymore, in that case why not? Otherwise though, it'd be a dumb move in my eyes.
Compare 130lb JMM or Pacman to 140lb version dimensions. Bud did that work in the gym as well from 135lbs to now, he looks much stronger. If these guys can do it, why does Loma get this pass? Rigo just jumped up two divisions, and was at a height disadvantage of 3 inches. Loma is closer to the JMM, Pacs, FMJ, Buds than he is to Rigo. I have Loma as my P4P number 3 at the moment behind Bud and GGG. He's not moving up in weight class, to state he's P4P material and can hang with the big boys there in those divisions.
Rigo jumped two weights becuase he's 37 and needed a payday, nobody would fight him at his weightclass so he had little other choice. That doesn't mean everyone else should follow Rigo's route and Kamikaze their careers out of desperation the same way.
