    I'd rather see Pac vs Bud or just retire and let Loma do his thing at 130.
    u sound jealous that bud wont get the easy money win..
    but in a way some of the things u said were right.
    this doesnt look good on top rank...its more of a wwe type of get over fight for either guy..i hope pac beats them

      Ridiculous fight too much weight margin ...move on.
      Manny losing to Horn tells you he should retire but he will carry on until he's carried out & then more

        He's down for whatever, and shame on Bob for taking advantage of the PACman. Bob, pay PAC what you stole from him, and leave the man alone.

        As one *** to another, Bob, you are a POS! I'm sure you never go to synagogue you turd...
        he's holding something hard strong and punishing over pacman's head.

          What if Pacquiao's game plan suddenly becoming a counter puncher to off set Loma's movement offense? Pacquiao's counter punching is underrated and even guys like Floyd where countered multiple times. He could be looking to not "Out combination" Lomachenko but rather put him down with single showy hard shot, considering Lomachenko does his usual approach.

          Pacquiao would be considering that since Loma is now faster than him at this point.
          That's exactly my point, Lomachenko shouldn't be trying to throw too many punches against a guy like Pacquiao because of Pacquiao's power and very underrated counter punching ability, Manny Pacquiao is actually a counter puncher but he's a come forward counterpuncher (Floyd Mayweather himself stated that that was the reason he was too cautious in their fight), nobody was ever able to run over Manny at any weight without getting seriously punished for it and I don't know if Lomachenko can take Pacquiao's power, that's why Lomachenko should be tactical and stick to his fundamentals without exaggerating. Pacquiao is a dangerous dangerous man even at 39 years old and Lomachenko isn't used to getting hit like that by 8 Oz. gloves.

          It will most probably be a technical chess match with either Lomachenko winning a close decision or Pacquiao scoring a Knockdown or 2 and getting a close decision. I favor the first scenario though 55-45 for now. Pacquiao didn't look too sharp against Horn and he was missing a whole lot. I also think Lomachenko will be a bit more comfortable fighting a southpaw than Pacquiao at this point in time since Pacquiao hasn't fought a southpaw in like 12 years.

                Same things were said before the Rigo fight.

                  Manny is a WW. Crawford just moved to WW. Loma is a LW. Which is the best fight to make?

                    Pac-Loma at this stage of his career would be close to one sided but at least he is bigger than Loma so he has a chance. I don't give him any shot whatsoever against Crawford. So make it happen!

                      maybe this speak to the uncertainty that ppl have in loma...this will be his 2nd 38 year old opponent in a row that hasnt won a fight in a year....and they'll both be weight manipulation fights....AND ppl that take this path tend to get exposed...
