Only fight is pay for is against Walters. I'm not very interested otherwise

All of a sudden Arum is aggressively promoting Loma hmmmm. He had a gem of a fighter on his hands but didn't really put much energy into promoting him until some of his favourites lost something about them.

I guess with Pacquiao retired Arum has to back someone to lead Top Rank

[lopetego]

I expect Loma to climb up through 8 weight classes too

He'll get a LHW belt someday

I thought the same thing his skills are on point

Lomachenko is a great talent but slow down with the Pacquiao comparison. Lomachenko has a long way to go before reaching icon status. Let's be real, who would put there money on Loma jumping to Jr Welterweight and beating Crawford or Postol?

If Loma can get to 140 eventually, and dominate, he'll be the biggest thing in boxing. But that's a big if.
