    Why do you think he is overrated when he was probably the best amateur fighter with the best record? I agree that some people talk like Lomachenko can move up to 200 lbs and beat everyone, but if we take a realistic look at 135 he can't be beaten. The only way he loses if he continues to try moving up in weight.

    He's overrated by some of his fans they put him in the same class as Mayweather and Pacquiao . Which I disagree with . But he is one of the best fighters in this generation

    Technique wise, one of the best ever, but he lacks the physicality. Great speed but has trex arms, small frame, and lacks power. His lack of physicality is why he won't be achieving what Pacquiao has done. He has significantly less reach than Pacquiao and even dogboe.

    He's a bum.




    J/k. He's a classy operator but isn't getting any younger and I feel he's currently lacking a truly career defining signature win.

    Wish he'd agreed to fight Pac.

    It's gonna suck to be Loma sitting in Pac's range all night.

    Sooo... 1.5" is "significantly" less?

    Pac KOs him. Would be one of Pac's EASIEST FIGHTS of his career.
