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

[Thraxox]

Lomachenko just straight up disrespected Pacquiao, he said he wanted to carve his own path, that’s bogus.

The guy straight up ducked Pacquiao because the risk wasn’t worth the reward.

They know how good pacquiao is and they weren’t confident they’d be able to dominate pacquiao and there was a good chance they’d lose. If they didn’t lose,they would’ve looked bad winning.

Pacquiao would touch Lomachenko up and everyone knows how dangerous pacquiao is. Especially at the lower weights where they may have met at a catch weight.

So the main reasons lomachenko didn’t fight pacquiao was first he could get KO’d or lose and everyone would say he’s a hypejob, second he could beat pacquiao but he knows it wouldn’t be easy and everyone would say he struggles with an old pacquiao and his stock further drops.

Lomachenko thinks he can trick the public by saying he didn’t want to dominate an old pacquiao and disrespect him, what a lie your whole persona is based off you dominating and clowning people. Be real and admit that you knew pacquaio would put up a helluva fight and make you look bad.

I don't think you know what disrespect means.

Jesus some of you guys and your bs.

Lomachenko doesnt want to build a resume based on faded stars and names like all these frauds now a days do.

Look at Mayweather or Canelo. Look at all the names of the faded stars on their resumes. A fighter in his late 30s or even 40s ffs is not remotely even the same fighter they were in their prime.

You can not even debate that and you already have excuses lined up if they they exceed your expectation. There is no difference between rigo and Pac. Its the exact same fight. Loma moves up to beat an old faded pac. It means nothing because the fight we would have wanted was two prime guys.

Last year most of you guys wrote off pac until he won a "regular " title. A regular title ffs! He just got beat by jeff horn for crying out loud and has knocked out nobody (other than former regular titleholder lucas) in like a decade!

So these are them *******s everyone talks about. Jesus.

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.

I didn't mean that that is planned. Just that in the back of his mind, Mikey knows his bro won't let a Benny Paret happen to him.
His cornerman loves him like a brother...

People here are just legit haters.

They said lomachenko would get dominated by rigo who at the time was in a lot of peoples p4p lists. They said rigos defense was too good. They said his right hand would break Lomachenkos jaw.

They also forget to mention that the fight was offered to rigo at 126. They also forget that lomachenko bet his entire purse on the fight to incentives rigo to take it. They also forget he offered the fight to rigo at 130 and agreed to a rehydration clause.

Then when rigo got dominated it turned into, he was too big. Top rank paid rigo off. He was too old. Blah blah blah.

They also forget that lomachenko didnt care for the fight and the fight was only for the fans. The also forget that he said that the fight didnt matter to him because Rigo is not his weight division.

Pac is not his weight class and hes old. Itll be the same excuses as with rigo.

Absolutely.
If he did fight Pac and dominate him like he would he will not get any credit for it.
Loma isn't about the money he wants the toughest fights out their.

[SOPH~ REP.]

I never heard a Boxer turn down a shot to beat a Legend because he would Win. It's most likely the other way around.

[Thraxox]

Lmao at lomachenko ducking Manny. You people are trying way too hard to hate on the guy.

Respect on Lomachenko. Pac and him as similar careers on this weight climbing, but the only difference is that on his way up Pacquiao encountered a HOF P4P fighter and had to work on its win. And Lomachenko has yet to encounter that. He has a good resume at 29 years old. And his Marquez is not fighting him (Mikey) but is instead being suicidal trying to fight Spence.

It doesnt matter. Rigo was already old and two divisions below that was already the pre-fight hate.

But still Loma was given credit for completing the task. Some of the Loma haters was even humbled and became secret fans.

If he really wants one of the toughest fights out there, try challenging himself against a legendary 8-division world champion at 140 as opposed to draining the legend at 135 where he hasnt fought for more than a decade.

Power is the last thing to go. Pacman still has his. Loma might not get up so easily if...

He has just come up from 130 had one fight at 135 and now you want him to go to 140.
He's not ******.
Manny probably would have a very good chance of beating him at 140 but by the time Loma does get to 140 properly Manny will be too old.
That is why this fight can't work.
They have weight divisions for a reason.

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.

Danny turned it down because he is with Haymon and Pac ws with ARum

Come on dog you silly

You think he was sucking?

Broner signed to fight Pacman right when he left Arum, All those young guys are drooling to get easy work with an old small legend like Pac

They could beat Pac with one hand tied behind their back dude
