Mikey beat Sallido, dropped him 4 times, Loma couldn't. Floyd beat Maidana, twice, Broner couldn't. There are levels to the game! I didn't say Loma wasn't great, but Salido made him look "human." Note: I didn't say "bum," or "weak," I said "human!"

What level was Floyd on in his 20's when he really lost to Castillo? We can do this dance all day and lol @ talking about levels to boxing with the P4P#2 fighter in the world in his 12th fight being in the discussion. Floyd wasn't P4P until way later in his career. Stop deluding yourself because you're a Floyd hugger lol

Loma made a lame excuse for not fighting Manny at 39 when he's in his prime. Dude fought an old, small Rigo at 130 but wouldn't fight Manny for way more money at 140 when Manny's 39. Prime Manny and Floyd would have destroyed Loma going by his last fight.
The Manny who fought David Diaz.. would have slaughtered Loma who fought Linares.
Loma is a great fighter but he's not on that ATG Elite level with Floyd, Manny, etc. guys who moved up multiple divisions and dominated. I don't see it. He's the best Lb for LB now because he's moving up and fighting the elite in those divisions but when the media starts hyping as all time great - it's just for ratings.

I see a lot of these 'loma fans' saying the only people who hate on him are mayweather fans
but a lot of these people (not all) are loma fans just because they hate floyd I mean they have **** hopped certain fighters who has gone on a streak and made noise since pac lost to mayweather now you get all these threads where they totally discredit what mayweather achieved from the age of 21 its ridiculous
mayweather was the best of his era bottom line and loma is the possibly going to be future great of his era just let it go man let go of the hate

That said, Loma has two olympic Gold medals whereas Floyd only had bronze
Fighters avoid Loma whereas Floyd avoided fighters
It wasn't until he became the biggest PPV star of all time that he got to pick fights. Btw, at that time, he was 30 and a 5 division champion.

That meme comparing the two was the worst thing I've seen in a while.

Originally posted by Metho_4u View PostI don't think it should be about Floyd vs Lomachenko, as Lomachenko also has 2 gold medals, while anyone with eyes knows Floyd was ripped off from his. We also know that no ref would let a fighter vs Floyd get away with the same tactics that salido used either. Lomachenko didn't cry about it, he just took the loss, learned from it, and you can now see hes much better equipped to handle a similar situation in the future. Floyd and Lomachenko are both great, because they can think in the ring, they don't freeze under pressure, and employ different tactics to win against different opponents and their styles, and THAT is what makes a fighter great.
