    Does lomachenko have a shot at being the best lightweight ever?

    lomachenko will make the hall of fame as a fighter but what are your thoughts on loma being the greatest lightweight ever? he's already a unified champ he could easily be undisputed by the end of next year. I think 135 is his limit I think he will fight there for the rest of his career. loma is 30 years old.

          If he can become undisputed LW champ and then defend it against top comp for 10 years then sure.

            I can see it. the only thing that could get in the way are injuries. its shame mikey had to avoid a lomachenko fight due to his hatred of bob arum now he's going to get beat down by spence lol

              Honestly, he's just too small. He's a 130lb fighter who could likely still make 126 without much effort.

                Well he has to lose or get koed first by a journeyman like the old time greats to be considered in the conversation.

                  No, there aren't enough quality opponents. Even if he defeats Mikey and becomes undisputed, that still isn't enough to consider him greatest LW of all time, not even close.

                    He absolutely has a shot it just depends on what level of competition is willing to face him.
