Why a potential Pac-Loma matchup is a no-win situation for all involved.

I agree. I want Loma to stay at his proper fighting weight of 130 unless that weight becomes difficult for him to make and stay strong. Today I think too many are obsessed with demanding successful boxers move up in weight again and again to see how many weight classes they can win titles in. That's not a smart thing for a boxer to do. Fighting higher and higher above their best fighting weight makes things harder and harder for them. When they climb too high in weight they get beat and often knocked out and they are often never as good again. Gonzalez used to completely dominate his weight class. Now that he has moved up in weight several times and fights at 115 he isn't nearly as dominant at that weight. I would rather see Loma absolutely dominate and rule 130 for years than take a chance on him losing to another great boxer who is ten or more pounds bigger than him in natural fighting weight.

It's a win situation for the fans, and isn't that all that matters? I do think this would be a fan friendly match-up. For sure. Ideally, I'd rather have Lomachenko face Mikey Garcia. And Pac face Crawford. In this way, they both adjust to new weights. If they both win, they can meet later in the year... That'll make for a fight everyone will approve of.

That being said, Pacquio and Lomachenko are of similar size. And stylistically, this would be entertaining. 2 boxers with dynamic offensive games. Crazy. If you just account for the fight itself, it'd be definitely be interesting to watch. Their styles would make for some fireworks. But the guy who'd truly win..is Arum.
