    Remember Loma didn't want to fight Pacquiao because he was old

    Then Pac's old ass came back 2 years later and beat Broner & Thurman

    Lomachenko and Pacquiao fight under the same promotional banner, Top Rank under legendary promoter Bob Arum. The 85-year-old said before Lomachenko's last fight against Nicholas Walters in November that it wasn't out of the possibility of a Lomachenko vs. Pacquiao showdown in 2017.

    "In terms of fighting Manny Pacquiao, he is near the end of his career," Lomachenko told Sporting News. "In the next two to three years he will be at the end of his career. And I'm not going to go in there and beat an old guy. It's complete nonsense for me to chase him. He has his own career. I have my own career. I think that I have a lot of good fighters in my division and at 135 and we can go in there and find out who is the best. Now, would be crazy for me to go in there and chase Pacquiao. He is like three years from now."

    As a supposed loma #1 hater(according to lomaphrodites),

    I don't think there's anything wrong with what Loma said in that quote,he knew there was no reason to call out Pacquiao who would likely demolish him(especially at that point) because he fights 147 lbers regardless of being shorter than loma.

    I wouldn't mind seeing that fight & would give Loma atg of this era status if he won vs Pac,but I wouldn't give Pac that much credit regardless. Bottom line is theres nothing wrong with Loma playing it safe while accumulating easy belts & getting tons of money,as long as we don't call it ATG at this point in Lomas career, that's a disservice to Boxings legacy & to Lomas future legacy hopefully.

    Conversely if he keeps beating truly top shelf talents around his weightclasses then it will mean a lot more when lomas remembered as an ATG. If he has it easy while others get shtted on for equal to him,then he won't challenge himself as much & won't be as great. Pac has a bunch of losses but since he faced everyone hes an ATG,Cotto the same. DlHoya same,If ggg closes out his career by facing canelo type resume then hell be remembered as an ATG,even if he loses some of those.

    Loma needs a high profile win vs a name ANY big name whatsoever (even if its a name only hardcore know),So far Walters & Linares are his best wins IMHO,I actually gave him props vs Linares because he got up & kod his chinny ass finally like he should've went for sooner. But I been saying he would be in dogfights vs decent+ opponents at 135+ & now he yet again looked slightly above average vs Campbell, nothing truly special, Campbell was being called a bum by quite a few of lomas fanbase a while back,& I was being rediculed for saying theres no way loma would ko Campbell without Campbell taking it til late in the fight & winning a few rds,I said loma would yet again look slightly above average (campbells very average)& Loma did not look like an atg vs a 20-1 underdog

              It could’ve been the pac-dlh of his career yet he’s not too confident to win it at 140

                    Between Trump being president and Loma winning, MCC needs to be out under watched supervision.
