Comments Thread For: Arum: Lomachenko is More of Whole Package Than Mayweather!

in terms of athleticism though I think mayweather edged it

Floyd has a nearly 7 in reach advantage as well.

no one denies he's a class act - bit early though to be talking about him in terms of Floyd's achievements. he's got a few divisions to climb and I think he doesn't see himself going any higher than light welter by the end of his career. Let's see.

So now Loma is the most talented fighter since Ali???



then he said the same about manny

[Larry the boss]

We can talk about all that once he become 130 & 135 undisputed champion (You know get all the belts in a division like Floyd did)

floyd never had all the belts AT ONE TIME in any division...

I think loma is more athletic, he style is more athletic then floyd potshotting, holding, backpaddling.
Loma can fight that style also but he chooses not to hold and punch combinations.
Look at loma after he almost punched martinez head off jumping a backflip.
Look at him training doing one arm pull ups, standing on his knuckles upside down jumping.

Vasyl is one of few boxers that in a short time of traing could have been ufc champ because of his athletism.

But Bob Arum is right though. Lomachenko has more package than Mayweather or Pacquiao. Though obviously Floyd has the better defense and Pacquiao has the better offense than Lomachenko. Loma can do both, though not as effective as they did.

But Loma can do better offensively than Floyd and Loma can do better defensively than Pacquiao.

Let's pump the brakes a little bit! Lomachenko is 28 years old and he's 7-1. Floyd, at 28, was 35-0, having already earned titles at Super Featherweight (lineal), Lightweight (lineal), and Super Lightweight. I'm just sayin'!

Loool you need to go watch Floyd at 130, he wasn't potshotting back then. Floyd at 130 was faster than Lomachenko and more athletic.

People comparing Floyd in his mid to late 30s to the current Lomachenko lack perspective, do you think a 35 year old Loma at 140 will be fighting the same way against naturally bigger men?? .... personally I doubt it.
