Comments Thread For: Is There Any Doubt That Lomachenko Is #1 Pound For Pound?

So did those who bet on Canelo to win.

True. That's why I bet the over.. I knew it was going 12 rounds. I'm on the fence with the rematch going 12?? But both have very solid chins.

WTF is boxing coming to? U can't have only 10 fights with a loss and be no.1. LOMO made RIGO move up 2 classes and also WALTERS was laid off boxing for damn near 3 years. LOMO got beat by slow as molasses SALIDA. I have him no. 3 for these reasons.

Klitschko was beaten by Ross Purrity. By your logic Ross Purrity must be one of the greatest heavyweights ever. Loma did enough to prove that loss to Salido was a fluke.

Finally someone else said it. These posters had me believing I was nuts. I see no closer than 8 rounds to 4, but some posters say Canelo deserved the draw or even WON. I even tried watching the fight tunnel vision on Canelo and can't see him even getting a draw. Oh well

Canelo Rounds 1-3. Round 1 because he threw and landed combos while GGG just threw 1 jab at a time.

Canelo 10 and 12. Round 11 could of went either way but most online cards have it to Canelo. If you had GGG by 8 or worse you gave ALL the close rounds to GGG.

I gave you 5 rounds for sure. Throw in round 11 A draw.

I didnt even go into missing over 500 punches with some being so wild it looked like Helen Keller in there. Hopefully this time Sanchez will train GGG more instead of being a media ho.

The author showed me how little he knows about boxing when he said we don't know how good Gary Russell Jr is!!! That's the one fight I give lomachenko credit for. I think Gary Russell is solid sure he's not active enough but the guy can fight. I just know one thing "IF" lomachenko loses (again) I don't want to read any article about him being overrated or down talk the man afterwards. They are building him up so they should give him the benefit of the doubt if he has a slip up.

Good Lord your comparing Salido with like double digits loses to Floyd?? You done fell out the RTarded tree and hit every branch on the way down... Go back to eating lead paint chips.

it was lomas SECOND fight ...you think floyds beating canelo in his second fight? when he was fighting a dude with 47Ls in a four rounder and couldnt knock em out ? ...lol right on

If only Loma were black, American and from the ****** - he'd be crowned as GOAT after his 2nd title. But as things are - no, he still needs to prove himself. Perhaps, we'll give him #1 spot after he beats AJ and Wilder. On the same night. Hell, throw in Brock Lesnar there with a chainsaw, let's see if Loma truly has that #1 p for p material.

That's clown talk bro. Lomachenko is already considered p4p number one by some boxing analyst if not most!! Lol Not to mention his last match was one of the highest viewed boxing matches of the year!! Charlo (s), Jacobs, Gervonta Davis, aren't considered top p4p fighters by no means and they have more fights under their belt! Loma definitely gets the credit he deserves and then some lol

Well written article making arguments on both sides. I’ve been one that has stated Lomo doesn’t belong P4P Number #1 but I can see a case being made for him based on his best wins to date. But I could still disagree based on the “overall” quality of opposition throughout their careers by Russell, Linares, Walters, & Rigondeaux, faced before fighting Lomo. What really strengthens Lomo’s career resume and makes an argument for having him on the P4P list is the key wins against Donaire by both Walters & Rigondeaux before facing Lomo and Lomo collecting titles in multiple weight divisions in only 12 fights.

I guess my bigger issue was when some “so called” boxing experts & people rated him higher than Andre Ward when he was still an active fighter on the P4P list. Ward was 32-0, a super middleweight and a light heavyweight champion. He had notable wins against (Miranda) whose only losses came against Abraham twice & Pavlik once before they fought, (Kessler) whose only loss was against Calzaghe before they fought, (Abraham) whose only losses were against Dirrell & Froch before they fought, (Froch) whose only loss was against Kessler before they fought, (Dawson) whose only loss was against Pascal before they fought, and (Kovalev) undefeated before they fought.

That’s why I don’t respect the P4P panel, clueless. I can see making an argument against Garcia, Crawford, & GGG now but not Andre Ward when he was still fighting. Nonsense!!!

No one is denying that Lomachenko wouldn’t crucify Salido now . But a loss is a loss. Who told Loma to fight Salido in his 2nd pro fight? He was matched against Salido at the time because they overestimated his ability to deal with a washed up Veteran. Listen I like Loma and believe he is very skilled fighter. Slowly fans are starting to disregard the Salido fight but when you get some Loma fanatics downplaying other greats or comparing Floyd then the Salido trump card comes out to silence your blasphemous ****** mouths ��

No, 100% p4p #1

I'm going to start reporting every single racist, ******, f**king comment like this... stop with the racist ****. If you are racist, it's because you're either insecure, an ass hole, completely ignorant, or all of the above.
