    No way is he the most overrated.

    Least underrated, sure.

    yes. the reason i picked mikey is because he is just as talented as loma, but he is naturally bigger and stronger. its displayed in how they handle similar opponents. 2 fantastic technicians from different schools, but one is bigger than the other. and that matters.

    Loma is the only fighter in the history of boxing across all weight divisions who's had four consecutive Title Fight opponents quit on their stool out of sheer frustration:

    Guillermo Rigondeaux
    Miguel Marriaga
    Jason Sosa
    Nicholas Walters

    Lomachenko is definitely not over rated

    most fighters who are overmatched dont have the luxury of quitting. they just wake up on the canvas asking what happened.

    Rigondeaux was 40yo and was dragged 2 whole weights up. Loma didn't even have the guts for a catchweight, 2 whole weights. Imagine loma fighting crawford.

    The other 3 guys will be nobodies in a couple of years. Actually, some of them are already. If that's the best you can get from loma, the OP is as right as rain.

    This post shows that he is underrated by people who DKSAB.

    Loma, past prime, has been fighting much bigger fighters and winning, but getting losses due to boxing politics.

    Loma outlanded Lopez, no question. The results don't say it, but Loma is undefeated, fighting bigger opponents. Even the Salado fight was a joke, the guy came in 3 pounds overweight, threw an insane number of low blows, and was still saved by the ref at the end of the fight.

    Loma and Usyk should both be held in the regard historically.

    Remember that no one wanted to fight him at his weight. He No-Massed Walters and Rigondeaux FFS. He dared to be great, something Canelo, Crawford et al have not come close to.

    This post illustrates how Loma is feared and loathed by the demographic whose supposed defining boxing traits are held in greatness by Loma.
