Lomachenko enters Ring mag p4p..

[MisterPullman]

You better get accustomed to see him there, Loma's not leaving that list until he retires

If he beats Salido in the rematch (convincingly) there is no doubt he will top P4P

He looked outstanding knocking out Martinez.He looks better and better with each pro fight. As another poster said the ring has gone down hill since Oscar, the conflict of interest promoter, became the owner of the magazine. I do agree with their high ranking of Loma. I think he keeps right on winning in convincing style.

myself and another poster did i believe

skillwise he is p4p for sure, but resume is just as important if not more important than eye test. Anyone can look like the next ATG fighting guys levels below then.

I can see why he is there but as time goes on, I dont even pay attention to publications p4p lists anymore...too much politics, and it is often used to hype up golden boy fighters or upcoming or prospective opponents

I have my own p4p list and I weigh resume a lot heavier than some on here, with exceptions. Loma may be an acception....we see his skills and having Martinez, and Russell on a ledger with less than ten fights is awesome

He and Inoue are on the cusp, i go back and forth on putting them in mine. Talent wise they are there, just have to get the resume.

He's currently rated #7 which is > Canelo (#8).

as far as i can tell, lomachenko wasn't rated anywhere on ring's p4p until he knocked out martinez. and i don't think you need that win, which was shocking and impressive obviously, to rank him above canelo.

He's gonna wreck Salido in the rematch, Loma had him hurt and ready to go in the last round of the 1st match.

That match showcased Loma's talents despite the fact he lost, he managed to adapt to an unknown fighting style from a much bigger man who was fouling him all night, and was working pretty well for him, but it was too late.

In the rematch Loma will know how to deal with Salido from the get go and will destroy him

Joining boxing greats such as Adrien Broner and Robert Guerrero.

Congratulations Lomachenko

LOOL

Spot on.

I don't get it. Everyone who hated GGG to be on the list are happy to see Loma there, because of what? the eye test? the screen skills? or 7 major fights?
And to add that he lost one fight out of seven and beat an average opponent in Martinez.

I don't understand this hypocrisy. Resume doesnt matter when you have your favorite on the list.

Exactly what I'm saying. Let the man build his resume first. I didn't even rate Ward high on the list until the Froch and Dawson wins even when everybody else wanted to anoint him first. I've seen too many busts, upsets and screw ups for me to prematurely rank somebody so highly.

My top 5:

He's worthy of a place on any P4P list IMO. I expect him to be a permanent fixture now.

Transnational Boxing's update has it :

Gonzalez
Kovalev
Golovkin
Estrada
Ward
Bradley
Crawford
Rigo
Inoue
Canelo

On Loma, they say this :

''At P4P, Vasyl Lomachenko was proposed to enter into the #10 spot, bumping out Naoya Inoue. It was defeated. Lomachenko looks like a P4P fighter right now, but his accomplishments haven’t caught up to the hype –not yet anyway.''
