    “We have no interest in moving up. If Pacquiao can make 135, to come in and compete for Lomachenko’s WBA title, Vasyl is the champion in that weight class, it’s a possibility.

    “If we are talking 137 [pounds] and 136, no, there will be no catch weight. If he wants to challenge, he needs to come down. We are not looking to go to 140 pounds. If Manny Pacquiao wants to fight Lomachenko, he can make 135 pounds.”

    I think Loma look vulnerable his last fight and Manny may not be prime but they say power is the last thing to go

    Not a duck, but Team Lomachenko wants no part of Manny.

    He looked like a horse-jockey compared to Linares, result accepting, so I ain't surprised.

    Lomachenko is taller than Pacquiao, almost 10 years younger, in his prime, just as athletic, and more skilled. He really should fight Pacquiao at 140.

    I get where Loma is coming from, but I think it's fair to meet in the middle here. Pacman hasn't fought below WW in quite some time. Meet at 140 or at least a catchweight of high 130's. Loma has many advantages over Pac and could snag a monster name on his resume.

    After that right hand from Linares that put him down, I don't blame Loma for not wanting to fight a much more powerful fighter in a more natural weight class.

    Loma is ducking. But I don't blame him. Old man Pac is scary.

    Dudes targeting Mikey, as well he should. There's unfinished business at 135 for both Loma and Mikey, and that's the fight that needs to get done.
