He's the greatest amateur fighter of his generation.
As a pro, not so much.
Boxing historians will see the glass as half full or half empty.
He fought good, not great competition. And he has lost twice, this despite being yet to face a great fighter his own size in their prime.
Sorry, but that's not top anything. That's borderline not enough for the hall.
Think about it...take away the brilliant amateur career and leave just the pros and Loma probably hasn't done enough yet to get to Canastota.
His next few fights had better be against p4p worthy competition...and he'd better win them.
