Bob arum says that he would consider matching Pacquiao up with Lomachenko at 135, what would your opinions about that fight. It is speed vs speed type of match up.

Interesting fight. I'll say Pac does similar to Salido. -
Manny Pacquiao walked into the ring for the Floyd fight at about 155lbs. At 37 years of age, there's no way that Pacquiao (as a part-time fighter at this point, especially with the actual political work in PI) is going to work down 20lbs and still be fit to fight.
It's basically following the set-up that Arum used to launch Pacquiao with Oscar. (height/weight/reach impressions would have Lomachenko maxing out at lightweight, with possible cashout fights at 140 at some point).Comment

Pacquiao can't make 135.Comment

I think Pacquiao would win a close one. Pacquiao is past prime but he can still fight his ass off. If Pacquiao trains hard I think he is too powerful for the smaller excellent Loma. By smaller I mean best fighting weight. Loma would have a height and probably a reach edge.Comment

People believe anything. Remember when Manny was coming back, only as a junior welter? So do I because I hear it yearly.Now it's 135. No, it's 147 vs. Jessie Vargas on PPV.Comment

No way he makes 135 at his age. This is nothing more than a very interesting fantasy fight.Comment

If they met at 140 and Pacman beat him that would be incredible.Comment

Pacman can't make 135 at this stage in his career and if he could, I would pick Loma to win, he's all wrong for Pacman. Pacman is an ambush fighter, I think Lomachenko is too quick on his feet and too good defensively to be ambushed. To beat Loma you have to either get in his chest and outwork him (Salido) or outbox him, Pacman can't do eitherComment

Lomachenko wins by UD IMO, so quick on his feet, dances rings around Manny.Comment
