I understand hypotheticals, D4.
But to be mentioned in the rarified air of the ATG's, in my eyes, he would have to be the man at 3 of the original 8 weight divisions. That would mean being universally regarded as the best from 126, from where he is now, all the way up to 147. All the while beating guys that merit consideration into the HOF themselves.
He'd probably have to have about 70 fights, and one, if not more epic trilogies.
I think it was a combination of Salido just giving zero fucks, and Lomas inexperience in a 12 round championship fight in his 2nd pro bout. I think Loma will be a great fighter, and he showed class in defeat, against a guy who lost the belt on the scales, ballooned up to 140+ pounds, and tried to destroy his family ***els, with the ref not doing jack shit.
I think he learns from this, and moves on to bigger and better things.
