    It's too soon to say that IMO. I like him but he's not that great now.

    Someone even tried to compare him to Pacquiao and Mayweather. That's completely BS!

    He's overrated.

    Looks like that's Arum's plan. Kinda like how DLH ''passed'' the torch to Floyd and made him a superstar.

    Why would they make a guy two/three weight classes below his anti-fighter?

    Because Arum has said this out of his own mouth. Bobby thinks he has the next coming of Pacquiao in this dude. Trust me he will make the kid weight jump until he gets KTFO6. (Just like Manny)

    With all the hate he's getting, it seems like it. That seems to be the litmus test. I doubt he'll ever get as big as Pacquiao and Floyd though. He'll get good paydays but I see him being a superstar more like Juan Marquez. He won't draw the big money but he'll always be in the mix.

    That'd be a shame, Loma's got only 1 more weight jump in him IMO.

    Nah. The next superstar is Anthony Joshua. Crawford will never pull the PPV numbers Joshua does or did.
