    If Lomachenko was a Welterweight..

    He'd have the perfect offensive style to beat Floyd. Who knows.. Manny and Marquez made the jump and Lomo is still young.

      He fought a Welterweight in Salido who was 147 on the night, so I suppose he could be able in the future!

        Why stop there? What if he was 6'11 295 pounds? He'd school Wlad.

          As extremely dirty as Salido was, he exposed some holes in Lomachenko. Holes that Porter, Maidana, Bradley and Pacquiao would exploit.

              If Loma ever gets to welter, it will probably be about 5 years from now. I don't really see how anything taken from his 2nd pro fight would have any relevance. Loma has been an improved fighter even in his 3rd and 4th pro bouts, the Loma who beat GRJ would probably have beaten Salido in an immediate rematch, let alone if you imagine 5 years down the line with all that pro experience and in his physical peak.

                We're talking 20 lbs, not 120 here. They are within the same neighbourhood, especially given Lomachenko's age.

                    There's plenty of room for some more muscle on that frame.

                    Edit: damn i didn't know his reach is only 65"...thats tiny for a featherweight
