Comments Thread For: Lomachenko: My Goal is To Unify at 135, Maybe Return To 130

[BoxingIsGreat]

I'm sorry but I strongly disagree, your picking only bigger guys to beat him, except Davis...which team doesn't want that smoke.

Just like people did with Floyd, ho winky beats him doe.

And as far as P4P level, even Usyk himself would tell you Loma is better.

Spence is a world champ in one division. So Loma looked "so so" at 135, how would Spence look at 160?

Spence should not even come in the same sentence, he just beat a coming off a loss brook and struggled in the process...we don't even know if his style can do well at 154...

Canelo went 12 Vs 12 in 24 rounds Vs GGG.
Loma is on another level, fighting top guys at 135 and style dominating.

Read my post again. I said will beat him or are BETTER. Not suggesting he fights Usyk or Spence or Crawford. I have Mikey (because of weight) and Davis (because he's that good and you'll find out soon enough) beating him.

I've always said Spence should man up and fight Canelo and GGG. I don't baby any fighter.

I like Loma a lot. I was kinda disappointed in the Linares and Pedraza fights. I made a lot of arguments for him that it was the weight and I still believe that.

I wish he could go back and settle at 130 but, again, I don't like that because Davis will be at 135 soon. That's one fight I wish for the most in all boxing, as well as Spence-Crawford.

Loma is more skilled than Mikey. The weight (135 or 140) will be a big issue for him if they fought.

Yeah I think those weight classes just exist for a reason some time. You could just tell Loma couldn't quite do what he wanted against the bigger man, and the bigger man wasn't as bothered by all of his skills because to them he doesn't hit hard enough.

Yeah that Davis fight would be interesting for sure. I think Tank gets too much shi.t. Every time he fights he steps up and does what he is supposed to do or more so I like that about him. I wonder if he would be big enough to pose the same problems Linares and Pedrazza did, or even what weight they would fight at, or how Davis would look in there against Loma and vice versa. Just a lot of interesting angles to that fight and I would love to see it happen.

Like someone said above, I would love to see Loma in there with Tank and Lopez and Mikey and see what happens. Not gonna lie though that Lopez dude looks scary to me lol. He looks too big and hits too hard for 135. I can't see him staying there long.

Yeah I rate Spence really high so as much as I like Crawford I won't believe anyone 154 or below can beat Spence until I see some chi.nks in his armor. I've got him number 2 pfp

So what? Usyk and Loma are friends.

Didn't you see when Spence, Broner, and Davis were on that video. Spence was saying Davis would beat him. Those things are what friends should say to appear humble. I've no doubt, though, Davis IS better than Spence.

Bull**** article. He never said that. The writers love writing bull****. He said he can go as low as 130 lbs for a fight not that he's going to 130 lbs.

Nice catch if true. Didn't see that.

What do you think Loma does weight wise in the next 5 years? Is he fighting 130-135 or go up any?

Good post.

To be honest, 135 is to Davis' advantage. He has fought above 130 a few times before as well. Davis is a big boy. Despite his height, I expect him to max out at welter. His body is still growing and wouldn't be able to stay at 130 for long.

It's true. Loma said he would go to 130 for Davis, but he'll stay at 135. He can fight at both weights simultaneously if he wants. He should follow the money but fight good fighters. Don't waste your time with Crollas anymore.

Yeah good call, Davis is young so he is probably still growing. Idk if it was the weight of those guys or the weight and height combo that bothered Loma, so seeing Davis Loma at 130 vs 135 is interesting to think about too.

Man if Davis goes all the way up to welter lol that would be something. Would be fun to see

Ok nice. Yeah I guess Crolla was his mando...I don't really mind a guy taking a light touch 1/3 fights or so, or even 1/2 if they fight often and just had a war.

But Loma has always seemed focused on his legacy since he is kind of on borrowed time so I fully expect him to give us some good fights. I really want the Mikey fight too to see how that would go but we will see what happens there
