Comments Thread For: Lomachenko on Rejecting Pacquiao: He's Old, I Think He's Done

[R-Hand Southpaw]

Last time I checked he’s 39 but if they do fight he’ll be 40+ but let’s see how he does against broner. If he does better than how Mikey fought broner than there really is no excuse if they match at 135. If Broner beats Pacquiao then I’ll give Lomachenko more credit and take back what I said.

Just realized that Lomachenko had the opportunity last year to fight Pacquiao, so he would’ve been 39 when they fought.

Yeah, my bad for not saying they fights already lined up for 2019. Pac has said broner then Mayweather. I doubt the mayweathe happens but that would push the fight late into 2019 or 2020.

The problem is the weight though. Pac probably cant make 135 and wants it at least at 140. Lomachenko has zero plans to move up from 135 against a then 40 year old pac.

They could have fought last year, but to me it doesnt make sense. Lomachenko is sensational but he doesnt gain much from beating an old pacman.

When he lost to horn nearly everyone said pac was shot and I think he is. He can be competitive but he just isnt the same fighter.

He could lose, but chances are he dominates pac and gets no credit anyways. Same as rigo.

Nope, DSG has an iron chin and power he will likely knock pacman out like he did rios. Pacman cannot beat anyone in the top, he will struggle with broner, he is too old man

Yea right Manny too fast and experienced...Danny aint consistent enough to beat Manny. Who old ass could still beat Desert Storm 10/10 times

If Spence fight happens, Mikey's gotta know that his bro will quickly jump in to save him, if he's in trouble.

If that's the plan, then he's not being honest with his fans. I don't think it is, tho. I like both guys, so may the better boxer/fighter win.

All Danny needs is one punch and its a wrap, Manny looked Good against Lucas but Danny will catch Pacman pulling out from a combo and throw that desperate left hook from left field and its a wrap once it touches his chin.

Pacman cannot hurt Danny, trust me on that, Pac is a flurry guy he cant hurt Broner either, Broner has no neck and an iron jaw.

Oh how funny the Rigo/Pac comparison is.

The only similarity is age, and it stops there.

Loma beat up an old Rigo who was two divisions below him

While Pac is indeed old, he is two divisions above Loma. Weight classes still matters for a reason.

There's no reality or alternate reality where i see Loma beats up a Pacquiao.

Pacquiao beats any fighter about the same size as him.

so in other words, its not because pac is old, but because pac is 2 weight classes above loma? yet he had no problems and his fabns had no problem when he fought rigo. but now that the fans is asking loma to do the same as what rigo did, all of a sudden "manny is old, fight won't mean anything". ?

Calzaghe said the same thing about Roy Jones Jr but money talks

[spenz]

I think Lomachecko is being disingenuous, he wouldn't fight Pacquiao because he wouldn't go up 140 and pacman at 40 years old certainly can't go down at 135 anymore, I mean he can, but that's not really healthy for him. So the advantage will be too much for Loma if the fight will be held on 135 and to think he is still the b-side here. He's still young he could go up to 140 more than a 40 year old can drain himself safely to 135.

DSG’s no look left hook? lol! You definitely underestimates PAC’s power and defense eh? Danny Garcia was once offered to fight PAC but turned it down wonder why lol.

[pasawayako]

I hope this fight happens only at 135lbs. 140 above will just be a mismatch.

[JrX]

I'm a Loma fan but that's bs, Loma DOESNT want any part of Pac 140 and up. Pac can still beat plenty of champions at 147.
