Manny is on record very recently saying he can go down as low as 135. Yet, in the Campbell post fight press conference, Lomachenko's team immediately dismissed the possibility of a Pacquiao fight, comparing fighting Manny to fighting someone much bigger like Crawford or Canelo which is ridiculous.
I hear people compare Lomachenko to Roy Jones jr, yet Roy had the balls to go all the way to heavyweight...But Lomachenko can't fight a guy on record saying he can fight at his weight? Even some 137 catch-weight wouldn't be some huge, earth shattering undertaking. But Loma's team is trying to frame it like fighting Pacquiao is fighting some huge guy like Canelo. It's not a DUCK per say, but it's a REALISTIC challenge that Lomachenko isn't even willing to ACKNOWLEDGE.
Plus, I would much rather see Manny vs Lomachenko and maybe pass the torch that way If Loma can step up...than see Manny suffer a bad loss to Spence or Crawford.
