Do people still think Loma should go to 140?

        He'd get castrated at 140.

        Better stick to his lane.

        He ain't Canelo crazy enough

          It really has nothing to do with weight. Let's stop with the excuses. They weighed in the same. Nothing too small about Loma.

          It's styles. Loma is good but that's it. This really exposed him as a hypejob. That's how I see it now.

            Nope he shouldn’t. Am a big Loma fan but fighting someone like Mikey at 140 would be too much for him.

              Lomachenko is the same size in dimensions as Manny Pacquiao, but he has the inability to complete at 140 + 'He is a great fighter' But I think it is evident now that fighters such as Mayweather & Pacquiao where in a entirely different league/dimension to even fighters like Lomachenko.

              Why all of a sudden is everyone ****ing on about the weight difference between Lomachenko & his recent opponents? 'Mayweather was giving away 20 + pounds routinely' while facing better fighters than Luke Campbell.

              Lomachko would of be stopped by both Mayweather & Pacquiao at 135 pounds.

                What exposes him as a hype job?

                  Mayweather and Pac are in a school of their own. When Mayweather was fighting guys at 147 he was walking around at 150. Pac is a freak of nature too.

                  Lomachenko might be skilled but unless he fights bums at 140, he would lose to guys like Mikey.

                    Chase greatness? The man's a 3-weight world champion with under 20 fights on his record, and is one win away from becoming undisputed at his 3rd weight division. If he does become undisputed, then he doesn't have anything left to prove, in my eyes.

                    He's already dealing with significantly larger opponents at 135, on top of racking up injuries. Therefore, he'd more than likely run into an early retirement trying to "chase greatness" at 140. If anything, he'd be better off moving down and fighting Davis, if Davis finally decides he wants the smoke.

                      Unless it’s like career changing money he should stay where he is.
