    Pernell Whittaker is considered by a lot of people to be the most pure boxer of all-time.

    How is saying Loma's not as good as him supposed to be an insult?

    It's like saying somebody's not as good as Michael Jordan as an insult.

      They are both great fighters, but Loma likes to fight on the front foot and be the aggressor whereas Whitaker liked to throw counters on the back foot and make guys miss... Loma’s style can be neutralized by larger guys with power while Sweet Pea’s was designed to neutralize.

        Loma is still good enough to give almost all of these guys a run for their money. He'll beat Haney in a boring fight, IMO, maybe hurt him, because he punches harder than Haney at 135.

        Haney still to me looks undeveloped. His punches have no technique. I prefer Shakur. Ryan is not ready. Nakatani would be a tough fight for Loma. I don't acknowledge Lopez until he fights someone good, not talking about Kambosos.


        So, he's in a pretty good company. I don't care for comparisons much.

            Lol this is the type of sh^t I'm always thinking with these types of threads.

            Also yawn at all time great talk in general. Sweet Pea was a bad mfer in his day. Loma was a bad mfer in his day. Why some folks always **** measuring bad mfers against each other?

                  Maybe the other thread starter got the idea from this guy, or vice versa. Not sure. I think I semi-know both posters.

                      Lona is a great great fighter

                      Age ain’t nothing but a number

                      The longer you live the bigger the burden.

                      I don’t need a replay of a champion going out swinging.

                      That messican dude is on fire...

                      I don’t see Loma beating him or being competitive
