Didn't they both win their first titles at 126?

Mikey might be an inch taller but he looks flabby up at 135 and 140.

Probably, Loma looks like he's always in shape and Mikey looks like he eats a lot of momma's home cooking in between fights.

Something to the effect of, "If two fighters of equal skill fought the bigger stronger fighter will win" . Does mikey beat loma 9/10 times??

To be fair, couldn't we say that Loma just disproved that?

Loma is way more skilled than Mikey

Garcia had his hands full with that chump Lipinets. He got exposed

That is a very good and fair point. Linares is very skilled and loma still beat the bigger guy hmmm....

Garcia made Broner his little girlfriend, though.

That quote goes back farther than Bruce but I refer to it a lot. I think Loma is a little quicker and busier, but people shouldn't mistake that for more skilled. Technique and reflex-wise, they are both at the top. What Loma has is quickness, Mikey has in power. Add in the fact that Mikey is bigger and that makes a difference. Bigger guys are not as affected by punches, and their punches hurt you a lot worse. Especially when their technique is clean, like Mikey's is.

These people who want to pretend that size won't make a difference only need to look at Loma vs Rigo.
