        Loma himself said Mayweather is unhittable. Take that as you will.

        That said Mayweather by decision.

          No option for draw, that's what I would pick.
          At 130lbs I would pick Lomachenko to beat Mayweather.

              This is crazy...
              He isn't that tall though plus I don't think Floyd footwork is at the level Lomachenko is at.
              Fighting Floyd at that point Lomachenko would have likely needed to KO Floyd because If we take a look at what happened with Castillo and the Maidana fights we see clear robberies.

                well let's take a look at bumachenkos opposition which made him into a "star" over night

                walters, a guy who didn't even try..came for a paycheck and never went back to boxing...can't give him credit for beating an already beaten fighter..

                rigo, rigo had one good opponent in donaire, even in that fight he got knocked down..he was running in circles eventually getting a victory..in the fight against bumachenko he quit..and we'll leave it at that...beating a quitter doesn't get you any respect..

                Linares another un skilled boxer..way to easy to read...need to make big ass movements before setting up his shoots...no defense..and no foot work...to me he's a c+ level fighter...but even he dropped bumachenko...

                For mayweather...his victories over cotto and pacquiao sh** on bumachenkos whole amateur and pro record...a pro record where he already HAS A LOSS against the b level fighter Salido...

                Mayweather is a legend, a HOF fighter...don't be a fan boy and compare those two lol

                  I see a lot of people online making comparisons between these two. Some people say Floyd would win and is the superior fighter because he was the more accomplished pro at 30 years, which is true, while others say Lomachenko would win because he was the better amateur, which is also true.

                  Floyd at 30 was an Olympic bronze medalist, 37-0 as a professional, with 5 world titles in 5 weight classes.
                  He stands at 5'8 with a 72 inch reach and statistically has the greatest plus minus ratio in compubox history.

                  Vasyl at 30 years old is a two time Olympic gold medalist, has 11 wins and 1 loss as a pro, with 3 world titles in 3 weight classes. He stands at 5'7 with a 65 and half inch reach and statistically has the second highest plus minus ratio in compubox history (one place after Floyd)

                  Who wins?
                  Just to be clear, are we talking about a Welterweight 30 year old Floyd against a Lightweight/Jr Lightweight 30 year old Lomachenko? Or a 25/6ish year old Lightweight Floyd against a 30 year old Lightweight Lomachenko?

                  If it's the former I'm struggling to see how Lomachenko has a shot.

                    Let's say a 26 year old Floyd against 30 year old Lomachenko at 135 pounds. That's the only way I can see this match up being remotely fair.

                      Floyd lights him up. He doesn't have the style to trouble Floyd and his arms are too short to box with... to box a tactical fight.
