What exactly does Lomachenko need to do to prove his haters wrong?

Loma could KO Joshua in 3 & he's gonna get hate. Haters are irrational & are barely boxing fans as I see it.

WBC orders Linares-Garcia
The WBC has officially ordered its lightweight ‘diamond’ champion Jorge Linares (43-3, 27 KOs) to take on its world titleholder Mikey Garcia (37-0, 30 KOs), in a bout that would have both titles on the line, as reported by Sky Sports.
Both camps are reportedly already in contact with one another but it remains to be seen if Garcia, after moving up to junior welterweight to face Adrien Broner in July, intends to move back down to compete at lightweight going forward. He did, after all, just recently call out Miguel Cotto for a fight at 154lbs.

Mikey Garcia turns down unification bout with Jorge Linares
WBC Lightweight Champion Mikey Garcia has once again declined to fight WBA champ Jorge Linares, stating that he received a better offer elsewhere. Golden Boy claims that they offered Garcia a 50-50 split without the long-term contract that sank negotiations the first time around, but it still wasn’t enough to sway him.
Garcia did not say who he’s fighting instead, but it’s likely to be Robert Easter Jr. Golden Boy president Eric Gomez says that Eddie Hearn has made a “huge offer” to pit Linares against Luke Campbell in an excellent rematch and that Linares intends to fight in January on HBO.
It’s a shame to see two phenomenally talented fighters in their primes not fight one another, but at least the alternatives are pretty darn good matchups. So it goes in this ridiculous sport we love.

All Lomachenko needs to do is keep fighting these dangerous fights! He’s already way ahead of Golovkin who has never taken a risk!!!

If he beats Mikey, they would say fight Crawford, if he beat Crawford, oh he ducks punchers, fights a puncher, the guy was a face first bum, etc, etc...
It’s like every #1 fighter has to go thru this - Floyd, manny, Roy, oscar, etc
