Can he hold that nail on his record if he.go through the figts prime pacquiao and pbf (pbf days only i am a fan of pbf not money) had gone throughout their careers?
Can lomachenko hold that 1 through pac and floyds resume?

It counts, if you mean the fights they had at 126-135 than he has a chance, but if he goes up to 140-154 and fights guys like Cotto, Margarito, Hatton, De La Hoya, and Canelo, he'll get stopped badly -
It would be tough. From 126-135.
Hernandez
Corrales
Chavez
Manfredy
Castillo
V. Sosa
Barrera
Marquez
Morales
Sanchez (tough, gritty, another Salido)
Solis
Diaz
Doable but not sure how Loma would react to pressure from a 147lb LW like Castillo, another Salido-like boxer like Sanchez, tall ass/rangy 5'8" Morales for a SFW who can box, 146lb Corrales at 130, JMM who was hard to outifight or outbox.Comment

Lomachenko walks into the ring 136/137lbs to fight. What in the world Lomachenko have done with a 29-year old Jose Luis Castillo (a fighter who'd end up fighting as high as 158lbs)?
skills are skills, but even Roman Gonzalez shows you, viscerally, that there reaches a point where size can effectively overcome any skill difference.
I don't fancy Lomachenko's chances against many fighters who'd walk into the ring 150lbs+ against him, solely because you can only dent so much walking in 136lbs to fight.Comment

Tbf, Pac didn't go through undefeated and Mayweather got lucky in the 1st Castillo fight.
Would be some incredible fights in there.Comment

I hate that some people are heaping so much praise (so early) for Lomachenko especially because he's such a gifted fighter. You can tell it's already going to his head by the way he was acting on Saturday. It takes a lot more than being special to accomplish a career like Mayweather or Pacquiao. It wouldn't be easy for anyone to go through the opponents they both faced not even Lomachenko.Comment

He was being completely respectful, until Sosa started beating his chest and then talking to him during a round. Only then did Lomachenko clown him, while in the flow of beating his ass.Comment
