    Y'all are being manipulated. Loma is a good fighter. He's not what y'all have bought into. Campbell is domestic level. Linares is vacant belt King. Pedraza is decent. Lomachenko is being touched up by some average fighters.

    But I suggest a faster, stronger, and longer fighter can touch him up and give him a good fight and I'm the crazy one.
    Linares was ducked by Mikey Garcia, and was considered lineal at 135. Linares wasn’t considered a “weak win” until after the fight.

    And anyone can get touched. Usyk put on an absolute masterclass against Gassiev last summer, and he still got touched (and rocked)

      He was not ducked by Mikey. C'mon man!!!!!

      And you can ask 1hourrun. I was calling Linares weak before there was any mention of him fighting Loma & they weren't in the same weight class. I've never held him in high regard. That's why it surprised me Loma struggled against him. And that's when my su****ions were confirmed

        “Struggled”

        Cmon bro. You know you’re my dude but Loma tore his labrum in the second round. Pretty sure it was the same injury that made Vitali quit against Byrd. He legit won that fight and knocked him out with one arm lol.

        And Mikey/Linares should have been a go. Mikey decided he Lipnets was a better opponent (which the only person I’ve seen sticking up for that is War Gar...War Ruiz lol)

          You're right, he really doesn't have a clue.

            So making Rigo and Walters quit doesn't convince you?

              Another thing. When I ask questions like these or I ask someone to tell me why they this he's so great I get answers I've already read in the media. People are repeating what they're being told.

                Don't take too much time he is 31 already. Oh he needs to learn to speak English because he will NEVER be the star on the stage without it (Pac learned this lesson).

                Also 147 is ripe for the picking. If Pac can do it then he should be able to as well if he truly is a "generational" talent.

                  Manny is Manny....Let me guess he need to have a fight at 154 too?

                  Fight Jarret Hurd at a catchweight?

                  Dude gat 15 fights...

                    Because the accusation going around is that ********** are the only ones not putting Lomachenko in the bracket of greatness.

                    Even though Barry Hearn said it and he's not a minority either.
                    I’m not a minority

                    I also consider myself a Loma fan. I just think it’s a bit soon to say he’s one of the greats. There’s a difference between great skills and greatness
