    Well...YOU said he already surpassed Mayweather.

    Which makes you a troll.

    Floyd was a World Champion at 21
    What was Loma doing at that age??

      out of shape? he didnt even try to make weight so he could have an advantage and weight matters as we know. for example floyd wouldnt dare figth canelo at 154 because he was scared. loma got in there with a guy who was cheating and he paid the price. floyd tries to cheat guys and you praise him. fanboy.

        its all fantasy remember? floyds greatness isnt based on resume his own fans admit that so based on fantasy loma is better.

          i was comparing leonard to floyd not loma you have to pay attention to what i was responding to

          no matter who i compared floyd to you would say lol. hes a slick boxer with fast hand speed and he gave loma zero problems. doesnt mean loma beats floyd but once again you have to pay attention to what i was responding to. someone said floyd had fast hands as a reason floyd would win.
          I'm pretty sure that person said Floyd has faster hands on top of his boxing skills..... which both he and Loma have an abundance of. If someone says the difference in the fight between Mikey and Loma will be power then I'm certain they aren't just talking about Power alone but they are acknowledging that both guys have plenty of assets but they figure the power will decide the match. What does GRJ have other than hand speed that led you to make the comparison to Floyd???

          You're the one missing the point. Whether you think Floyd is TBE or not, talking about SRL is pointless because that doesn't explain how Lomachenko is already surpassing Floyd like you said.

          You just ramble like you have a valid point but really you're not backing anything up.

            Loma certainly is being moved up quicker than Floyd but its way too early to make this sort of statement.

              Being out of shape is not an advantage.

              Canelo offered to weigh in at 152.

              Floyd didn't put a rehydration clause on his like he COULD have.

              Loma didn't fight Walters when he missed weight for Sosa because he was scared. ...by your logic.

              He wound up fighting Walters anyway....after he was sidelined for a year.

              Really brave.

                Eh, let's not get that carried away.

                Floyd is like a top 5 ATG.. But since the Salido fight, Loma definitely meets more of the "eye test" than Floyd did at that point in his career.

                Let's see what Loma has put under his belt in the next decade, doe.

                    And I don't really judge fighters who have an L or two.

                    It's all judging - it's all about luck.

                    Floyd really should have one loss on his record against JLC in their first fight.

                    But one of the reasons I really admire Floyd is that he IMMEDIATELY stepped back in there, and proved he was superior by clearly beating him (just like JLC clearly beat him the first time).

                      Scary good, yes.. Better than Floyd? That still remains to be seen.
