Seriously? You're asking if someone with 9 fights can beat the greatest fighter of his generation at one of his great weights? Really *****?

At 22 years old Floyd was putting on better performances at 130 against Genera, Augustus, and Chico (top 5 p4p at the time). Lomachenko is 27 and Sosa isn't better than any of those fighters. Lomachenko looks the part but Floyd was on a whole different level at 130-135

Back then floyd's hand and foot speed were every bit as good as lomachenko's and he has a reach advantage to go with it. The fact that loma is a southpaw makes it interesting tho. It's really a tough fight to call, but it would most likely be a chess match with low output from both guys.Comment

If the only time I ever saw Loma fight was the Salido fight I would pick Mayweather in a one sided fight. After watching Loma's last few fights I would pick him to beat Mayweather. I think Loma would slaughter Salido in a rematch. Would a 130 pound Mayweather beat Martinez and Walters as easily as Loma beat them? I doubt it. The Loma of today is as fast and tricky and hard to hit as Mayweather was. He throws many more punches and punches a bit harder than Mayweather. I think it's a very close fight but I think the Loma I saw last night might beat Mayweather. Give Loma a few more pro fights and he might get even better than he is now.Comment

It's hard to pick against Floyd at 130 lbs but it would be much tougher than any fight he had at that weight. Both of these guys are masters at punching off the pivots, it would be a great sight to see these two share the ring.Last edited by Caught Square; 04-09-2017, 02:26 PM.Comment

People say dumb **** on here. Like really silly. Floyd had a 90% ko for a long while. He devastated the division and was probably faster, def stronger, longer, better defensively, I could go on. For someone who legit says loma would win, why?Comment

If it's prime for prime then it would have to be the Floyd that was 27-0 with 22 KO's, this was Floyd's record at 130lbs. Versus Lomachenko 8-1 with 6 KO's.
Floyd was taller/rangier, but they would be the same weight on fight night since Floyd would come in at around 134lbs. Floyd would have a 2 inch height advantage, and a substantial 7 inch reach advantage (that jab doe).Comment

Augustus was tough, a nice test. He was not an easy KO, only has 5 in his career 34 losses. If you look at his last fights vs Provodnikov, Omotoso who stopped him, not even those were exactly easy early round stoppages and he was beyond shot to bits at that point. He was the first fighter to give Floyd a bloody nose for a reason. Floyd needed to stop him to really make a statement, it was a tough guy to get out of there but he really had to do it.Comment
