Nobody has said that. In fact most want him at 135 soon. If he fights at 135 and wins a title will you give him credit? Or give him **** because he isn't fighting Joshua?
Gamboa-Lopez was being marinated then Lopez lost. Simple. Garcia talked **** about Gamboa, Gamboa responded and Mikey went away. It was set to be his highest payday, a payday he is yet to get. Crawford moved in and blasted Gamboa and took Mikey's momentum and HBO and TR promotion.
Wtf I give him credit he's one of the best fighters in the world but he ain't Floyd and he not a legend uet. It's still fighters out there that are just as good or even better.
I looked for that quote and couldn't find it??? Gamboa didn't fight JuanMa either because of Arum. So what, do y'all want Loma to fight at 130 for the rest of his career ? Lmao this is crazy
Skip to 13:07 into the video;
'Mikey Garcia, who we saw in the first fight tonight, is now the mandatory to the winner of this fight (Gamboa-Solis). He acknowledged, and his team, 'not Gamboa. Not yet.'
Lomachenko has moved up already and is set to move up again.
Look at when they are fighting them. Some of those instances are just names. You can nitpick just about anything. For example I know Floyd is an incredible fighter but beating Gatti, then Judah (off a loss to a bum) and then washed up Oscar doesn't blow me away. Green Canelo at a catch-weight isn't stuff of legend either nor is beating a pretty used up Pacquaio. I rate Floyd's career as a collection but there's not many truly defining moments there.
Not knocking it I'm just saying there's been so many fighters that have done equal or more.
Oscar beating up a used up JCC and getting a very controversial decision over an old Whitaker doesn't jump out either.
You're right, we can "nitpick" all day! Like I said, what would Hagler's legacy be if Duran, Hearns, or Leonard, never moved up and challenged him? What is GGG's legacy if his career ended today? Oscar, Floyd, and Manny are considered great because they moved up and beat the champs!
-PBP- and I are looking for recruits for our private Vasyl Lomachenko group where we discuss things like this thread hate-free. This group is for anyone who wants a better environment to talk about Lomachenko, without the race wars, or "he's the goat", or insulting other posters/boxers to big up Lomachenko. If you think you're fit for this group and want to join PM -PBP-. If you know you're a troll who's incapable of discussing things normally then don't bother.
A green Canelo lmaoo only in boxing can you have 46 fights and still be considered green. Canelo last 6fights been at Catchweight lol so do those fights not count???
They wanted that 152 Catchweight purposely and that's FACTS http://www.************.com/2013/06/...ayweather/amp/
Why are you using Gatti out of all of the champions he beat Gatti is almost never even mentioned? BIASED.
Beating a Nicolas Waters coming off a year layoff and a draw to a BUM doesnt move me either. Losing to a old journeyman with 10+losses doesn't move me either. SRL didn't beat Hagler until his mid 30s and it was Hagler last fight. Does that not count? Marciano over Louis definitely doesn't count then.
I used Gatti because somebody else used Gatti as an example of a great Floyd win.
