Who does Loma have to beat to really earn respect?

[ShaneMosleySr]

Manny Pacquiao is an eight division champ and doesn’t get respect.

So I assume if Lomachenko won titles until 168, he wouldn’t get respect.

He has a lot of respect already he is at the top of most P4P Rankings WTF more do you want

Loma gets massive respect except for a handful of idiots on here. It's good. All the best fighters are hated.

[Derranged]

For many of the posters on this site he would have to switch bodies with someone named Vontae Lamar.

Man, I like this Lomachenko guy but he blew his chance with Pacquiao. He was offered to be Pacquiao’s dance partner not too long ago but he would only do it at 135 if I’m not mistaken.

That was a once in a lifetime opportunity for him and he passed it up. Where do you think Pacquiao would be today had he not fought De La Hoya at a much higher weight class some 10 years ago?

Not sure who Lomachenko can beat that he is realistically big enough to fight in the first place. Sometimes it just happens that way. Vasyl is a great boxer, but he may never get to prove it against a truly worthy opponent.

If he stays around long enough at 135, I'm sure someone undeniably legitimate will come along.

Currently, only Pacquiao is worth the risk/reward. Even-though he's heavier, their physical dimensions are close enough for Loma to have a reasonable chance of victory. Let's not forget that Pac is 40.

Over the last couple of decades every P4P #1 fighter beat P4P fighters their own size or bigger to get to #1. Apart from Golovkin and Lomachenko.

From 126-135 who is that?

[boliodogs]

If you don't think he is great now you probably never will. He is 31 so he is a bit past prime right now. He has been a champ at 126, 130 and 135 and defeated a whole bunch of champions. That's a fuc of a lot. To hell with your grades like you were a school teacher. If they are world champions then they are grade A and he beats the hell out of them one after another. All he can do is fight the best who will fight him and beat them and he has done that. If he can beat all the 135 pound champs he will return to his best fighting weight of 130 and try to beat everyone at that weight. If he can do that he will have cleaned out 135 and 130. He has my respect right now and at age 31 he can't get better but he can stay good enough to beat any boxer his weight. If that isn't good enough for some, tough shyt.

He doesn’t beat this version of Manny

Maybe in 2-3 years he beats a slower even older version

Lol the guy who has been wrong in every prediction.

[DaNeutral.]

Loma is already getting respect from all corners except one.
