Comments Thread For: Pacquiao Says He is Targeting a Lomachenko Showdown

[Zaroku]

Thanks for admitting im right my fellow brew

You are always right, you can never be wrong!

Now I gotta battle a few israli fools ...

I'd have Jhonny blow you..

Makes sense. It’s a passing of the torch type fight

In the same way as Chavez-Oscar, Oscar-Floyd

Biggest name of the past vs emerging big name.


140 seems like the right weight for this one, should be very exciting as loma’s Chin will be severely tested.

Definitely a passing of the torch type of fight.

I wonder how Terence Crawford feels? He wanted this fight and was willing to do it at 140.

But Arum and/or Team Pacquiao are choosing not to pass the torch to him.

Fight should be at 140....make Loma go up 2 divisions.

Why would Loma want this fight at all, forget about full 2 dev. up? If it happens, it will be below 140. Pac is the one who wants and needs this fight.

I think Manny should target the WBO 140 pound title first.

Some interesting and more winnable fights for Manny at 140.
The two big ones would be Mikey Garcia and Vasyl Lomachenko.

Pac by murder. Stop this shi1t, this is like GGG -Brook, Canelo -Khan, Lomo -Rigo..

Obviously, the PED comment is ******ed. This isn't.

You can argue Arum is going to make the fight to boost Loma's profile which makes sense. While I think Loma is the best at LW, others think its Berchelt.

Hopefully, the fight gets made. If it doesn't, I think its fair to discuss why.

seriously,i haven't seen much people put Berchelt over Loma,not even on Ego's channel.
And Berchelt clearly has other plans so what is a white boy to do?

It won't be murder. Manny will treat the fight like a sparring session and get outpointed by Loma. Rememer in the Jeff Horn fight, Manny suddenly forgot to throw punches in combinations and was content to just throw single wild over hand lefts every now and then.... I expect some more of that same BS.... No combinations, and no MOVEMENT... Manny will allow himself to be a sitting duck so Loma can outpoint him.

On paper this seems like an awesome match-up...but I am so thoroughly disillusioned with boxing that I know better now.... But hey maybe I'm wrong...

would have been a much better fight 2 years ago but pacquiao got size advantage though..but loma's the matrix

[EL_GRINGO]

easy win for Loma
