Here we go. Broner acts like an idiot and throws barely throws any punches again and now Pac suddenly destroys Lomachenko. I can see this fight happening now and the public hating a 40 year old Pac getting put out to pasture.
I am scratching my head at these violently hysterical threads about Lomo! He touches something deep and desperate in some people. It is becoming a fetish. And an unhealthy obsession.
What would Loma's defense be if Pac just decides to swarm him with 5-6 punch combinations? Block? He doesn't have the reach, not the power to keep him off him. I see Pac stopping him inside 3 rounds. Loma knows it, thats why he ducked him blatantly. That excuse about not fighting an old man is a joke, he fought Rigo lmao with for a fraction of the money. And in terms of legacy, you're all lying to yourselves if you don't think the current p4p king having the former p4p king on his resume wouldnt be great for his legacy, at least better than who is this next guy he's fighting?
What if the lack of credit post fighting Rigo is what was putting him off? And it will be his footwork that wins him a fight against Pac.
Agree. Everyone clamors for Loma to fight Rigo and now Pacquaio, but immediately after embarrassing Rigo the same people demanding the fight ended up discrediting it by saying he moved up 2 weights and was 80 years old. So what's the excuses gonna be after Loma tunes up Pacquaio? He was a cryogenically frozen former 120 year old welterweight who was brought back to life and forgot how to box? **** off.
Nothing you said changes the fact that Lomachenko considered the fight and then imposed weight stipulations and then walked away.
I think it may be the other way around and pac would get no credit beating loma. Not saying its a foregone conclusion but not an impossible one either.
Make no mistake loma WILL get caught. Linares was catching with combinations and even with broner running pac was catching with big shots only reason he remained was his durable chin. Also im not sure many have noticed but even loma does get pretty reckless with his footwork. If loma doesn't want pac that's fine but with the shallow roster at 135 either he moves up or down
Kid, are you ****ing plugged in? Pac wouldnt get credit for beatingnLoma -- if he did? The p4p #1 guy in the sport? Un **** yourself please.
Lomachenko doesn't run and he presses the action. Pac won't have to close ridiculous distance like he does against guys running for survival. Pacquiao stops him. If Lomachenko has a chin, he gets dropped multiple times before getting knocked out.
And? Nobody is saying there isnt a risk in this for him, because clearly there is. But why bother when you wont get credit anyways because all his haters will just point to his age and loss to FMJ. He's 30 or close to it, he NEEDS to ONLY fight prime fighters and among the p4p best in boxing and top of their division. And honestly, hes already fighting 2 weight classes above his natural weight.
Footwork? Describe how his feet is gonna win the fight? He uses his footwork to mount his offense. Have you noticed Pac makes big WWs cower in their shells? Loma will have to run and that’s not his style. Pac will run over him. Never has a fight been easier to predict. At least broner may have scored a haymaker, Loma don’t even have that kind of stoppage power.
If loma doesn't get credit for beating old man pac as you said in the case of rige then pac wouldn't get credit beating little loma. Go away with that p4p #1 doesn't mean squat to an ATG
(Yawn) Lomachenko is tiny at 135lbs and he's not moving up to meet Pac at 140. Not in this life or the next. Pacquiao's frame is so much bigger than Lomachenko's. He's turning out big, strapping black men like Broner and drilling them all across the ring. Of course Loma cannot stand up to that firepower. Anyways, it's clear Pacquiao has zero interest in making 140lbs despite what he says, and he's after bigger money fights than Loma can bring. He's hunting Mayweather and hoping that somehow by God's grace that maybe Mikey Garcia beats Spence. Mythical matchup.
Dude, Loma is prime, taller than Pac, younger, faster, has better defense, and supposedly is "more intelligent". Mikey understands the smallness of Pacquiao because he said whether he fights him at 135, 140, or 147, IT IS THE SAME GUY. Which is true. There are lightweights that are bigger than Pac. And all current 140 and 147 pounders are much bigger than Pac. And did I mention that Loma is 10 years younger? Salido was 148. Pac was 149. If they met at 135 or 140, Pac would be 140-145 on fight night. Either way, Pac won't be much heavier than Loma.
