    Sure he would be outweighed by probably most guys at WW, but hes more skilled than pretty much all of them and hes not some midget you make him out to be. The only guy at WW that has skills to match him is crawford and if probably pick crawford to beat him. Spence is huge for WW also and thats why spence would probably beat him. Everyone else gets circles boxed around them by lomachenko. You keep talking about power but nicholas walters had a **** ton of power and he couldnt lay a glove on loma.
    lomachenko is 5'6. every bit of 5'6. but I'll give u that...if u want to say that loma is 5'7 and much much bigger then what he says he is u can have that. in that case thurman is 5'9. i remember the face offs that him and robert had. robert is every bit of 5'9 because I've seen him in person and both guys were the same height. keith has been on record saying he's actually 5'8 in a half to 5'9. he looks 5'9. I do not think lomachenko looked drained at 130. he looked healthy. i have no clue where u saw him being drained at. he was squeezing down to 126 and blowing up against smaller guys (the broner treatment) but that wasn't so much the case at all for 130. lomachenko is tiny compared to thurman and most other welterweights. look at his natural build, reach, height. but BUILD. neck to chest ratio, legs. so fourth. brook walks around at 5'10. porter is a truck. brook pumps a power jab & stands his ground he was able to back up and blast a giant spence let alone lomachenko. keith lands bricks on the outside making a mess of loma. and porter bullys him into submission. these fighters are not only bigger then loma but are more talented then your sosas. wait.....way waaaaaay more talented then guys like walters and sosa. you are talking power with walters but who did he beat? A faded donaire after being almost stopped in that fight? don't talk to me about walters in the same breath as your thurmans. thats a joke.

    it's not all about power it's called levels. i have given you real break downs. not just power.


    your gameplan is for loma to box and dance circles around thurman? outbox and try to dance.


    hummmmmm




    ok.

        Loma is amazing but stop... he's too small and disadvantaged to box from the outside like Floyd and lacks the power of Manny. His power is only going to go down as he moves up, he'd be lucky to have Paulie power by time he hits 147.

          This so much...

            Lomo is a great fighter and has crazy skills.

            But 147 is a very dangerous division for smaller guys coming up in weight.

            You have to swim in a very big pool filled with MW's that can cut weight down to 147 (like Porter etc) and WW's with high skill and real pop (Thurman etc).

            I think 135 is about as far as Lomo can be competitive TBH.

                I don't get how people are using the excuse, Loma isn't technically sound, as a reason for him to lose a fight. Literally the dude is technically sound because he's always defensively responsible. He literally has the best compubox defense numbers. Yeah, his style can be a bit awkward but was Roy Jones Jr. as well? And that dude was a beast. He only does those things because he wants to make it a fight. He wants to make it entertaining. I mean, RJJ was one of his child hook heroes. Go back and watch some film and Loma does the exact same **** he did.

                People also talk about his pit pat punches. That's a part of his style. I think Loma has above average power but doesn't use it all the time. Like honestly, you all praise Floyd but forget that his power was weak as **** too. If Loma's power is weak to you, what is Floyd?

                And then people speak about his lost to salido. Sure. But that was like 4 years ago. We have no idea how he will adapt. That's just like saying no way Ali could be Frazier the 2nd time around because he got whooped the first time. Or like Ali couldn't beat Foreman because Forman stomped Frazier. You won't know till they fight.

                Though I do agree I have a hard time seeing for Loma can get over 140. I think it's 140 max. He just doesn't have the frame to do so. Narrow shoulders and short arms. Doesn't bode well. He could probably do it, but it would be wise then to go sooner than later because his talent requires youth. Once the reflexes go he goes.

                  I'm pretty sure Lomachekoko will be DESTROYED by Joshua.
