Comments Thread For: Robert Garcia: Lomachenko is Pound For Pound Number One

[Rumblerr]

Not Yet PFP

Lomachenko has to defeat in dominant fashion an elite fighter before he can be crowned the pound for pound fighter in the world. He's good, but he hasn't beaten anyone who can be considered elite. All elite fighters know the same tricks of the game, and that's why sometimes their fights seem boring to those who do not understand the science of boxing. It's easy to look espectacular against someone who only knows one way of fighting, who only knows one style. It's a totally different game when you have someone who can adapt and overcome your style. Let him fight the likes of Mikey Garcia and Terrence Crowford (if he can still make 135) and see how well he performs agaist these elite fighters. If he dominates them, then I would consider him to be the pound for pound best fighter in the world. Let's wait and see first, though.

Terrance Crawford is better than Lomo. I don't know what's Robert's angle for making such a statement. Walters was Lomo's first real test and all of a sudden he's #1 P4P? He needs to get more good wins under his belt to even break into the top 10.

Could say that about someone else too. They both pass the eye test portion of p4p rankings, but neither has a claim to #1

Mikey is his brother

Hahahahahahahah some people just talk to talk, without getting their shtt right first

[MEXfistology]

Really good fighter¿ yes,.. pound for pound¿ no, he needs to beat Pacquiao and Crawford to get that spot, or grow a pair and fight rigondeaux at a catchweight

Give me his first name I want to check him out

You must be trolling. But nonetheless, he's talking about Roman "Chocolatito"

Very Solid win, I thought Walters was going to stop him in the 12th after Loma nearly gets a perfect victory by outboxing and tagging Axeman all nite!../

To see him use all the little nuances and understand studying the opponents tendencies is elite skill type of skill set!

I see him clearing 130 unless someone like Salido or Vargas KO's him.

I can only assume that the "someone else" you're referring to is Crawford. But Crawford has had way more competitive fights than Lomo. I give credit where and when it's due and Lomo seems to be the real deal but like everyone else, he has to prove himself by continuously winning competitive and compelling matches. Logically, this is how it's always been done.
