Manny Pacquiao has far less "skills" than Vasyl Lomachenko.
Loma-Greatest Amateur of all time, 396-1, Olympic/WC Golds.
Pacquiao- No Amateur experience, started with no real trainer, poor nutrition, etc.
Loma- 5ft7, talented boxer/athlete since childhood
Pacquiao- 5ft5, admits having “no talent” as a boxer
Loma-Textbook skills, defense, footwork, accuracy, ring IQ, etc.
Pacquiao- Crude slugger for most of his career, went through bloody wars and got hit/rocked often.
And Yet......
Pacquiao manages to go through division after division, win countless fights as an underdog, beat bigger fighters and legends, give us performances of a lifetime, and last year at age 40 beat a young lion in spectacular fashion.
Loma however seems to have hit his ceiling at 135lbs. Loses to a 23 year old with 15 fights after giving away the first 6 rounds.
So my question is: What does Manny Pacquiao have, that Lomachenko doesn't?
He was horrible in that fight. Are you Ghanaian by any chance?
He may be, even though he was effective everytime he attempts to connect while avoiding getting hit. Before Pac fight, he was something to watch out. After Pac, he became a joke. 1 fight shouldn’t define a his entire reputation. No, I’m not
