    PBF and Pac were little guys and they dominated at 147. Why can't Loma do it? And don't says styles.

    Not completely. The only way Loma will lose at 147 is if him gets caught with a bomb. Because I don't see anyone out boxing him.

    Lomachenko beats him handily, probably stops him. Linares has never impressed me. Good fighter, but nothing more. Loma is smack dab in his pomp and a grade better than Linares even on the best night of the Venezuelan's career.

    I think it's beyond clear now that no one that
    weighs anywhere near Lomachenko can beat him.

    He won't lose unless he gets too much hubris and goes
    to far up in weight. I'd favor him significantly against anyone
    under 135.

    Loma UD, but a TKO win wouldn't shock me in the least.

    In fact I think it will be a TKO.

    Linares isn't tough enough to last the distance once Loma has him figured out and outboxes him in the 2nd half of the fight IMHO.

    Voted Linares but see it as a 50/50 fight. Loma has never faced the speed and the range of Linares before. Loma is at a disadvantage in height , reach and power. Can't see him trowing dazzling shoe shiners at Linares because he's too dangerous to trade shots with a guy who has equal speed but more power.

    No way is Loma is knocking Linares out either. If Russel wasn't close to going anywhere , Linares wont be either since he moves to good and is offence is too strong to allow himself get pitter patted by the smaller man. Loma will have to take it to him in the pocket but i see Linares ripping him with body shots with speed and superior reach.

    Linares is looking for that fight , says its easy for him. That fight would show how great Loma really is.

    True, but Pac hasn't ice anyone since 2009. That's a long time.
