The way Loma was turning Martinez was special. His footwork and combinations were just beautiful. He's one of the most skilled guys we've had in a while. He may be p4p better than both guys already. Lets see him beat Salido first.Comment

Well, that's not bullsht.
It's harder maybe to be IBF, WBC, IBO, WBA unified in a very same division, than grabbing WBO PAPER BELTS in 3 different divisions.
The shame is GGG won his WBC belt without fighting but not his fault.
Will you be happy if GGG moves up but Jack and De Gale duck him like Martinez,Nelo and Jacobs did at 160 and ends up beating ***in old Sturm for th WBA Belt then mandos and US police men?
Too much of that multiple "division champ" adding paper belts like Broner or Burns, or worst, Paulie who never made the TOP 5 of 140 and TOP 10 of 147 but is world champ in those 2 divisions beating N DOU and Senchenko.
I would prefer Loma to stay at 130 and unify, beating Vargas, Corrales, Pedraza, remach Salido than fighting Flanagan for the 135 WBO belt.
What about being a unified champ before you 10th fight if you want to break records...
Better to be a lineal unified champ in 1 cleaned up division (a real best) than being a belt holder in 3 different divisions without ever beating the best(s) in those "multiple" divisions.Comment

Yea, most casual-fans over-rate power.....
" powah " has NEVER been a prerequisite to winning a boxing match.
Kovalev is the most-proven..... Loma is the most-skilled and will likely achieve the most, given both his age and his propensity to take on a challenge..... and, Loma is the most dangerous to A/elite opposition, considering his talent/skill-level and pedigree..... Golovkin had done nothing after 7 fights as a pro, Loma is a 2-div champ with world-class victims.Comment
