    Salido was Loma 2nd fight. Look who Floyd fought in his second fight? Case closed.

    GRJ is at least on par with Corrales. Rigo definitely is on par. Linares just below and Walters bit farther below.
    But he lost to Salido. He didn’t win. What are you closing?

        I don't pay these new fans no mind, these guys are mental ill weirdos who live in the moment. Only been watching 2 years but will try to debate who is the greatest

        You know the answer to this...HELL NO! That is not to discredit or bash Loma in anyway, he is the real deal but he has some SUPER ****** Fans who are desperate to claim someone is better than the Great American Boxing Legends

          2nd fight vs 28th fight...Floyd, and 99% of fighters for that matter, never face an opponent like that so early in their career for a reason.

              I'm just amused that all these people posting act like they're true amateurs who are just score board children.

              Lomachenk lost against Salido doe. Doe doe doe. Salido doe doe doe.

              It was his 2nd pro fight and his style at the time was not adjusted for the pro ranks. Does anyone think the Lomachenko now would still lose in a SPLIT DECISION where he legit almost knocked out Salido in the 12th round?

              Even with the weight advantage and the 100 low shots these people want to act creditable like the result would be the same? Do they really think the fight was called fair?

              These same dudes jump on Mayweathers and Canelos **** despite them both having fights they should have clearly lost. Castillo. Maidaina. Trout. Lara. GGG. PBF has power in both hands they say. Blah blah blah they say. Yet, unlike Lomachenko didnt get gift decisions against "C level fighters" like Castillo.

              Lomachenko was gonna get robbed vs Linares and still knocked him out with one arm. Dominated 11/12 rounds against Pedraza. Dominated Crolla in 4.

              All in a weight class he doesnt even belong in.

              These same dudes say Lomachenko has no power and is a pillow puncher. But come on man. Look who has more KOs.

              People are petty asf because you dont even care about the facts, you only care if the facts fit your agenda. Not even a boxing fan. A boxer fan.

                There is no debate. Both great fighters. Let's wait till he has 25 fights then we can debate. Floyd was awesome but blew it in the Pacquiao fight. It would have cemented his legacy if he went for it all but he fought so conservative that the decision was meaningless. He should have went for it in the last 2 rounds closed the show, but No. He hurt boxing because of it. Loma would never do that. Other than that Loma cannot hold a candle to Floyd's career at this point.

                  The decision didn’t go his way...the decision vs Castillo went floyd’s way. The fights were every bit as close, but yea, hang your hat on the loss.

                    Age 27(Loma) vs Age 23(Floyd)

                    Loma was 27 when he faced Salido. Floyd was barely in his prime at 23 when he fought Corrales. Got ya

                      Age doe. If it was just about age and not pro experience, loma would have beat Salido. I mean, if they rematched, would you pick salido? The answer is no if you’re honest. Loma learned more from that fight than fighting 10-15 no hopers...he just wasn’t fortunate with the decision. And, I was talking about Castillo, not corrales. It’s a better comparison to loma vs salido.
