Why did Loma refuse to fight Pac when Pac said he'd come down?

[Beterbiev#1]

Fight could've/should've happened. If Loma did that to Pac, I wonder what he'd do to others?

[BlockChain]

He was clearly scared!

Some chit about pac being to old if i remember correctly.

"He's old. I think his career is done. I don't want to become a legend in boxing because of him... Listen, I'm not disrespecting Manny Pacquiao, but I don't want to make my name bigger because I beat an old legend."

Interesting being Pac is still one of the best fighters in his division and p4p

Pacquiao wasn’t going down to 135 and Loma wasn’t going to 140

Because people would start crying saying hes fighting old fighters

Let's be consistent. These are the same people that want Canelo to fight 36 year old Beterbiev.

Pacquiao said he would and Loma refused to take him up on it as quoted above.

[ShoulderRoll]

Because he felt Crolla and Campbell would be more of a challenge.

IIRC that was after the Horn loss, when everyone thought Pac was done. he wasn't allowed to fight in the USA, and everyone thought he was going to retire. Myself included.
