These are the type of statements idiots make that doesn't understand nor respect the sport of boxing! Here we have a kid with tainted Mexican milk still on his breath trying to convince us that Mayweather at 130 and 135 was a "boring" fighter!

and that floyd never took risks doe

The only one who confirmed being salty over the bigger Linares QUITTING from a body shot from a smaller man is YOU...but nice try. 👎👎

look at you all salty.....



did I say something that was incorrect?

How about refuting what I stated? Oh wait.....

I would have been willing to bet an amount of money that meant something to me that Chico would have f.ucked Lomachencko up.

floyd has been 'knocked down' both officially and unofficially. officially against hernandez, and unofficially against judah. also floyd was 19 when he turned pro while loma was 25, loma stayed an amateur longer and won 2 gold medals. floyd was a silver medalist (controversially). not taking anything away from floyd, but loma is something special, and tris is not saying the loma is p4p best ever. hes just saying that he has not seen anything quite like loma, and i agree with him. the guy is a phenomenon.
as for the salido loss, salido came in over weight, and in loma's second only fight he lost a tight decision to a guy with multiple world titles. then in loma very next fight he takes on gary russell jr for another title. if he loses that he goes to 1-2 after 3 fights. respect to loma, hes been taking on the best available guy since he stepped up as a pro.

Problem with your post is that lomo can't be put in the same sentence as T.B.E. Floyd is something special we never seen anything like.

You clearly never watched Floyd when he was competing in the divisions Lomachencko is fighting in.

You mean when CASTILLO got robbed?

Well to argue against you it hasnt been seen ever.
Loma now has the world record for shortest amount of time to reach 3 belts in 3 divisions.
Unheard of the only guy to come close is Jeff Fenech.
So when he is saying we havent seen anyone like Loma that is the truth with records to prove it.

I bet a polished fighter can do it in 3 fights....

Loma is a special talent indeed. Hopefully we'll see him vs Tank this year. Now or never.

I think the Floyd comparison is a natural one due to the fact that Floyd was the previous generation’s P4P King. And they’re trying to anoint Lomachencko the next to hold that title. The comparison also picked up steam when “Fatass” Rafael said Lomachencko would either beat or be a tough out(can’t recall which one specifically) for Floyd at 130, which is laughable.

To be honest, from a skill standpoint, Lomachencko is very overrated and not even in the same zip code as Floyd. I think the better comparison is Manny. He reminds me more of a young Manny, with better footwork and less power. Lomachencko depends on his physical gifts more than Floyd did. His “skill set” is drastically overrated. He mostly relies on fast hands, quick feet, and reflexes.

I’m actually curious to see what happens to him once his physical gifts start to erode. Guys like Floyd and Hopkins continued to fight at a high level after the physical gifts started to fade because of their elite skill set. Guys like Roy Jones and Manny stayed on top for a long time because they were genetic freaks that were still ridiculously athletic well into their thirties. Lomachencko is already thirty. It’ll be interesting to see how long he hangs on the next couple years.

Can’t argue with any of that. Good response. Good post.

why do you have to specify 130 and 135?
you just made my point
