The winner of Lomachenko vs. Davis will be the "Next Mayweather." Neither one will probably make it to there financially, probably not even Canelo level. Loma has a chance though, because if he faces Pacquiao (assuming Pac beats Matthysse) @ 140, he could become a household name! Wheaties box type of **** there!

Davis is a decent fighter but his size means he will struggle as he moves up. He'll be way closer to Broner than Floyd. Floyd was freakishly athletic and has an insane wingspan which worked perfectly for his fight style and hand speed. Tank caps out at 140 with smart matching imo like Broner did.

It's not even just his size, but his style won't allow him to be effective as he moves up.
Some of his main attributes won't be a factor at higher weights.
He should be fine at 130 and 135, but I can't see him fighting guys like Taylor, Prograis, Ramirez at 140. Those guys would overwhelm him.
He may be able to win a title at 140 because there is just too many titles that anyone can become champion.
