    Do you agree with what Teddy says about Linares here and how Garcia`s right hand is more powerful at the higher weight than the slimmer Linares right hand that floored Loma, I think he`s right for suggesting moving up may be a bridge too far and I felt he was completely right with everything else he said here, what do you guys think?

    Maybe not next, but I would love to see my local hero Josh Taylor take on Loma in around 2 years time, at 140.

    For starters he agrees with me saying Loma was a bit faster than Linares :D 4got who here told me not so!
    As far as Garica, quite a few stated that. Just watched Tim Bradley's take on the fight he said the same thing. And that his ring IQ isn't to be questioned. If, so then that is the fight I'd like to see.

    And I'm stubborn when it comes to detractors questioning a move up is too far. Except HW's virtually every fighter retires at the weight their body fills out to and not the division they started at.

    Outside of Garcia who is there to challenge Loma @ 140? If not that, then Tank Davis. Since he once failed to make weight, let him move up. I think he can give Loma a shootout.

    Boxers should always without exception fight their most prestigious opponent. Right now, for Lomachenko that's Garcia.
