    Didn't beat Beltran, Burns, Klimov or Postol by stoppage, anyone with decent defense usually goes the distance against Bud, he's not some massive KO artist, Gamboa, Lundy, Indongo, Molina and Diaz aren't all that defensively responsible, some are kamikaze's some are face first brawlers, but one thing for sure is, they fight nothing like Lomachenko. And they bring none of the variables to the table that Loma does, as far as size goes, Loma I taller than Gamboa, Lundy and Diaz, he's no tiny little midget, Bud has an inch on him height wise.

    Mikey looked quite large at 140, does he look all that much bigger than Loma?

    Give Loma a match or two to get acclimated to 140, he'll give Crawford far more nightmares than Gamboa did, and Gamboa gave him plenty.

    I don't think Terry has any quit in him. He might be the only one who can beat Loma with his style.

    Bud brings a style that Loma has never seen and skills that are old school. Who Loma has beaten and lost to at 126 and 130 does not compare to fighting and beating Bud.

    Loma can have 10 matches that get him used to 140 and he will still be the same guy who has no straight left hand who can't fight inside. All that spinning around and size advantage that he uses over overmatched opponents would go out of the window against Bud.

    Loma is a good fighter but the fighters he has made quit were not elite fighter well apart from Rigo but he was to small old and was he even still elite his fights leading up to the fight were poor am no Crawford fan at all but his a different level and Loma still hasn't fought a elite fighter his own size the hype is getting to much the match making has been great

    That's two divisions fat ass. He trains to weigh in at 122 not 130 lard butt.

    Rigo brought a style that he'd never seen, Russell Jr., Marriaga, Sosa and Walters did as well, he's kind of a master adjuster. Similar to Crawford, who took a few rounds to figure out Gamboa, Dulorme and Burns. But here's the catch, while Bud takes a few rounds to figure out Loma, Loma will also be a step or two ahead of him, prefiguring his next step for when Crawford finally adjusts, and so on and so forth. This isn't a foregone conclusion, and no one should act like it is, fine Rigo was small for 130, Loma is about the right size for 140 though. I see it as 50/50, not sure who has the edge.

    By the way, just in case Loma does move up, and Bud does beat him, it'll be Bud's career defining win, so word of advice..... try not to tear down and **** all over Loma... Bud's future best P4P win, just in case.;)

    Real grown up you are.
    8 lbs is 8 lbs. Be it two divisions or one.
    The reality is that the out come that night was defermined by skill, not size.

    Crawford has 5 inches on him in reach and that is a huge issue. Bout will not happen at 140 however as Crawford has to work too hard to make that weight

    Dunno, watched the fight?
    He was bigger but he didnt use his size to bully the smaller man. He outboxed Rigo.
