floyd took hatton out first right? then juan lazcano had him hurt...then pac knocks him out ....should we suck pac off even more for beating a guy floyd ko'd then lazcano had on queer street?
again...you are picking on mikey here cause its easy..since hes been inactive and is trying to get his career back on track while loma is getting a huge push right out the gate.......when mikey was humming along he was no different than loma
so address why some are impressed with gvozdyk and talking about how hes already amassed a good resume ....but someone like spence, who is 3 years younger, is going to the UK to fight brook ...and he gets trashed?
As for Gvozdyk, I don't think he's the top prospect at LHW, I think Beterbiev is.

But, you can't discredit Loma and his performance against them and give Garcia theoretical credit for that. Each fighters resume is their own and Loma's is there.

but some have gone out of their way to knock mikey or act like loma(or any of the EE guys) are doing something more impressive because of their short pro resume...when in reality their age dicatates they should be fighting the level of comp they are fighting
whats the difference between spence fighting brook and loma fighting any guy hes faced? none really...cept loma chased some medals and turned pro later.......but one is trashed for his resume while the other is praised for his....yet in reality spence is 2-3 years younger

and his fight in two weeks is going to trump anything on lomas resume
granted lomas overall is better....but spence is still younger and has time to catch up and surpass
so why is spence dogged by guys like with you(with a name that implies you will lap up golovkin, or any eastern euros, semen) but loma is praised?

the point is...he beat salido and martinez at the same age loma did...those are common opponents...same age....so why do loma fans act like loma has accomplished some great feat because loma decided to chase medals for awhile instead of fighting pro?

I'd be backing Loma, of course, but I can see Garcia winning too.
I don't see too many people dismissing Mikey. If they do, then they shouldn't. He's awesome.
I think you might be downplaying the significance of how many pro fights a boxer has though. Age isn't the only factor, and I don't think it is even the biggest factor.
I mean, if you take two fighters of the same age, and one has zero pro fights behind them while the other has thirty? There is a definite advantage to having that pro experience.
