Whoever voted Loma deserves a lifetime ban.Yeah, this is one of those cases where as members of Boxingscene, we should be able to vote for lifetime bans via a voting panel because anyone who would pick Loma to beat Duran at lightweight, needs to go. And it's not like the guy who did that was trolling, he was serious and even detailed.
Loma would be very gunshy against Duran. Duran would win by dominating decision or possibly a late stoppage. Duran did just about everything better in the ring than Teofimo Lopez.
Duran by mid-rounds KO or UD12/UD15 - properly motivated, I'd pick him to beat literally anyone else in history at lightweight, be it Floyd, Armstrong, Chavez, Whitaker, doesn't matter. Duran was a death engine at 135.
I pick loma. Too skilled and would do to him what sugar ray did. I know duran is a different fighter at lightweight but i see a prime loma beating a prime duran
Ridiculous! Loma doesn't have SRLs speed, power, or size and let's not forget Duran beat Leonard in the first fight.
Duran was better than Loma P4P (no offense to Loma, I'd write that about darn near anyone ever). Combine that with the fact that Loma is fighting above his prime weight....bad news for Lomachenko.
I could see it being a fun fight, but Duran stops him mid to late
Duran was a big lightweight. Loma is a big featherweight so Duran is a much bigger man. Duran is often considered the best lightweight of them all. He KOs Loma at 135 in my opinion.
