    Lomo calling himself PFP #1 is absurd

    I have been saying it for awhile, Lomo is far more arrogant and off putting than people realize, and in this case, he is off base.

    If he feels he is better than Crawford, jump two weight classes and prove it, Mikey did, Manny did, Oscar did, Floyd did.

    That's the difference between those fighters, and Lomo, they talked about being great, and went for it, wtf is lomo doing?

    He is doing a GGG, talking big, and building up a BS persona that is based on questionable opposition.

    I would rate Manny, Crawford, Canelo, Fury, ahead of Lomo because strength of schedule matters in boxing, you can't fight a small amount of fights against old, overmatched, or incomplete opposition, and elevate yourself to that level.

    Please dude, Lomo's problem is he cannot separate his prior career from his professional one, nobody gives a sh/t about his gold medals, or the fact that he spent his prime fighting incredibly overmatched fighters, when it comes to PFP.

    As a pro his resume is so so at best, esp with that loss to a journeyman, and the cherry picked nature of his opposition.

    If Lomo jumps to 147, and starts tearing up the division, then we can talk about him being pound for pound #1

    No I think he should jump to 168 and fight Canelo.

      Until Lomo jumps weight, he is just another false PR machine in my book, he needs to back up these ridiculous claims.

        Here is what Loma actually said, but you likely never went beyond the title, and actually read the article:

        "All champions have a big ego. I think I am the best pound-for-pound in the world. Terence Crawford thinks he is. Canelo Alvarez thinks he is. For me Crawford is second, Alvarez third. Although none of us accept losing,"

          Well he is a 3 weight champion like Crawford, which is 1 more than 2-weight Champion Canelo.

          Not sure that this weight argument holds much clout, especially when it’s obvious Loma is a small lightweight

            So 126-130-135 is not enough? Considering that at 135 he barely even rehydrates? He’s not like Crawford who cuts to 147, but walks at 170-175...

              No, unacceptable, he called himself the best fighter in the world, and the guy who is #2 is two weight classes away, just like roberto duran, Lomo needs to go to 147 and prove it, or stfu

                Yeah because he's only a record holder for 3 weight Champ in the least number of fights.
