Good post. Raheem and Loma do have different styles in terms of slickness.So which slick fighters did he struggle with aside from Raheem?
And Lomachenko doesn't actually move like that. He has great movement but for the most part is right in front of you like Pacman in a way. Not sure the Raheem fight is a good comparison for this.
Pacquiao had great footwork and a bit out of prime Morales was able to handle him. Great match up, can't really call it.Comment

These idiots on this thread that keep mentioning Raheem as the reason why Loma would beat Morales keep failing to mention (on purpose of course) that The Morales who fought Raheem was an old Morales near the end of his career. Yes, he had a slight come back later, but it was not all that successful of a come back. Morales last great prime performance was against Paquiao.
A prime Morales would beat Loma. He would use his reach, height, and jab to control the much smaller Loma just as he did in the first Paq fight. Plus, he hits much harder than what Loma is used to thus making Loma much more cautious and reluctant to engage for long periods. Morales has a better chin than most of Loma's opponents and he would definitely not quit and sit on his stool.Comment

They tend to forget that Pacquiao defeated Morales by adding counter punching, in their outings in the 2nd and third time. I wonder why they still think post Morales, Pac is still that 1 handed brawler.Morales was 17 years old..not 400 fights into a career lol.
But anyway, hard to tell. Loma is slick but going forward and Pacquiao found out real fast what happens if you try to overwhelm Morales. Much different than Raheem.
I might be having a case of the bias from watching one fighter have dozens of pro fights and one with much less. I might honestly lean towards Morales (p4p). L
If Loma beats Mikey Id pick him. Just need a little more fights from himComment
