    What prime fighters has he beat? Everyone good that he’s beat has been over 30 with the exception of Russel Jr

      i see you are trying a new thing called a straw man. when did i ever say a prime fighter had to be less than 30? you made that up. are you saying undefeated walters wasn't in his prime? are you saying you can't be in your prime if you are 30 like walters was? really? pretty silly claim to make but ok. the prime fighters floyd beat were corrales, castillo, baldomir, and uhhhh maidana, and maybe canelo even though he was drained. thats not very good for 50 fights. you see with 11 fights loma is already on track to surpass that weakness.

            Ok so what prime fighters has he beat? Jason Sosa and Nicholas Walters lmaoo. You’re hanging your hat on a prime Nicholas Walters? Like I said the bar is extremely low
            for Loma
            You made the argument which is a very ****** one. Rigo was 37 so he’s definitely not prime lol. You have no argument. He’ll never be nowhere near Floyd. Only thing he has is his amateur career that no1 gives a dàmn about. A retired Floyd is still 100x more popular than Lomachenco. He’ll be lucky to even be mentioned amongst Floyd. He can’t be on track to surpass it if he already has one loss to a guy with almost 15 losses lmaoo. Think before you speak son.

                They are setting the bar extremely low for a 30 year old with 11 fights... But his amateur career doe.

                  His boxing is beyond measurable. Sal Sanchez is my heart and soul. But I'm rekctstly thinking he's better than my savior Salvador Sanchez !

                    walters was an elite fighter. russel jr went on to beat the #1 fighter in his division after losing to loma. thats pretty impressive isnt it? both these guys also have styles that are much harder to crack than a guy like castillo or corrales, or how about gatti, or how about baldomir? floyd spent the majority of his career fighting these guys with crude to no boxing skills. only at the end did he pick off some older fighters. stop overrating him. loma still has time to be great. lets hope he surpasses mediocre floyd ten fold. lets set the bar high and dont aim low for floyds weak resume. aim for leonards. he has 4 wins better than any win on floyds weak resume.

                      are you talking about floyd or loma? cnat be floyd since he only fought slow plodders during his prime. corrales, castillo, gatti, baldomir....oh my thats bad. oh wait he fought slicksters like corley and judah and looked terrible lol
