Nah, Lomachenko always does his pitty-patty arm punches in the first few rounds there's no ass beating there.
If his opponents let him (can't stop him from...) get a momentum then yeah they are ****ed but Loma isn't some KO monster who will beat anyone up in just 2 rounds. Lomachenko is excellent but I'd pick Mikey Garcia to beat him tbh and there are other fighters who have a decent shot against Loma even if I wouldn't pick them against him.
He throws the lighter punches and feints because he is downloading his opponents tendencies and reactions to certain punches. He is a genuine genius.
people need to stop with the 8 fights nonesense though....dude is 28 with 400 am fights and 20 pro fights(fightfax, the official US record keeper and the official record keeper for the World organizations has his record at (18-1 5 KO's)
I don't think it's the same fighting as a amateur and professional

Dude is coming into his own as a pro. He's a tough one to deal with for sure...he has decent power now that he is used to the pro ring, but not "**** you up in two rounds with head gear" power.
add nonito donaire to that list. its funny how nobody brings up those guys early losses but these idiots all ways bring up loma's second pro fight. haters have to use anything they can I guess.
Loma is not on ggs level 20 straight KOs
Oh yeah? PAC, Marquez, Hopkins lost to guys MUCH worse than Salido early on. Still sticking with that theory?add nonito donaire to that list. its funny how nobody brings up those guys early losses but these idiots all ways bring up loma's second pro fight. haters have to use anything they can I guess.
rating him over ggg
He's a better fighter than GGG. He's already won titles in 2 division with 8 pro fights. He is taking on better competition than GGG has. Heck he just fought what many considered the number 2 guy in his division and he made it look like child's play. GGG is finally getting his shot at the #2 in the Jacobs fight. While GGG has more of a body of work due to him being a pro longer, I have no problem with people thinking Loma is a better fighter due to what they see in the ring
Greats don't get beat by salidos of the world no matter what the circumstances weresalido isn't an ordinary fighter.plenty of great fighters lose to lesser fighters. lomachenko is already great when you look at what he's done in 8 pro fights and his two olympic gold medals.

That's a ridiculous statement. Lomachenko bit off a bit more than he could chew too early into his career. Why do you think most top fighters have a list of 15 nobdies at the start of their resume. We'll never know if that would happen to other fighters or not, cuz nobody does that. It was a bit arrogant and he paid for it, but he probably got more out of that loss than most fighters get from their first 15 "wins" against tomato cans.

That's very interesting. I had no idea that Loma and Mikey Garcia were friends and trained at the same gym. I wonder if they've sparred?
No he told sally eckback that they were too far away in weight
Makes me wonder how big mikey gets
Coming from him that is a great compliment. I agree with him that Loma is great and the total package. He has speed, stamina, power and incredible boxing skills on offense and defense.
