Re: Floyd vs Loma at 130
Floyd. Loma isnt hard to hit
Re: Floyd vs Loma at 130
I agree that Floyd wins, but it ain’t like Loma’s easy to hit. He’s a his offense is his defense kinda guy. Floyd wouldn’t be there for Loma to hit though and it would be one of those fights where Floyd would rely on his speed and punching power. Very interesting fight that I think Floyd would make look easier than most anticipate.jeff_lacy_ko wrote:Floyd. Loma isnt hard to hit

Re: Floyd vs Loma at 130
Mayweather. Skills and ability are arguable p4p, but regardless, Mayweather’s naturally a larger man by 2-3 weight classes, and that would tell the tale. Lomachenko at 30 isn’t really even a true lightweight and looks soft there, and based on his right night weights, could still cut 126. Mayweather by 30 was a welter, albeit a smallish one who likely still could have made 140 if he’d tried.

Re: Floyd vs Loma at 130
Excellent fight as Floyd was more in the pocket at 130. It wouldve been entertaining as Loma would definitely have moments. Favor Mayweather in this one.

Re: Floyd vs Loma at 130
Floyd was pretty aggressive at 130. Loma is not a defensive whiz. I would take Floyd by late stoppage or UD

Re: Floyd vs Loma at 130
Definitely would be an interesting fight. Floyd would win a decision. Loma's style will provide openings, because he is aggressive, but I don't think he's that easy to hit. Gary Russell with all his speed landed at whopping 80 punches on Loma. Linares was two full weight classes bigger than Loma on fight night. Had Loma came around during Floyd's time at 130, I'm sure the fight would've been made.

GRJ did not land 80 punches on Loma but it's funny you think that.

Re: Floyd vs Loma at 130
83 regular punches landed on Loma along with 407 air jabs.
Floyd is 2 weight classes larger. What the fuck is this Flat Earther Day?

Re: Floyd vs Loma at 130
Wow those Gary Russell punch stats. I remember him looking dreadful but yuck.
Re: Floyd vs Loma at 130
GRJ did not land 80+ punches vs. Loma.
Those CompuPUKE stats are garbage.
The only thing he was hitting was forearms.

Re: Floyd vs Loma at 130
Floyd’s 2 weight classes larger now, but at 130 he was an average sized 130lb fighter. It’s not like he was a weight bully like Oscar, Broner or Brandon Rios or something. He entered the ring at a reasonable weightPangloss wrote:Tell that to the scales and the rulers.5_burowz wrote:Pangloss wrote:Mayweather.

Re: Floyd vs Loma at 130
He might have entered the ring as a reasonable lightweight when he was in the super feather division, but Floyd was big for that weight. His height and reach advantage would be greater than most in the weight class. Both Loma and Mikey Garcia do not have the size that Floyd possesses. Floyd's body is more like crawford. He would be the larger man in the ring against Loma at 130 and would crush him
Re: Floyd vs Loma at 130
He was bigger than average, but no, he wasn't killing himself to make the weight to avoid moving up or trying to snatch a title or anything like that. Rather, he was young, and grew out of being able to easily make the limit by his mid-20s, and chose to challenge himself by moving up. Lomachenko is pretty petite and will never grow into a true welterweight or even junior welter without intentionally bulking up for the sake of bulking, which would negatively impact him. He's almost 31 and barely weighs over the lightweight limit on fight night.ObJuan13 wrote:Floyd’s 2 weight classes larger now, but at 130 he was an average sized 130lb fighter.

Re: Floyd vs Loma at 130
Gary landed 80+, bud. He was also out landed by a 100, doubled up in percentage landed and completely outclassed while giving Loma everything he had to offer. It just wasn't close to being enough. Reality is good enough in this instance for even the most devoted Loma fan. Maybe, don't cross that line. The earth is round.5_burowz wrote:GRJ did not land 80+ punches vs. Loma.

I think the earth is more like an oblate spheroid.
The fighters he's beaten aren't even household names in their own household.

Well, Russel Jr. landed 80 plus and Floyd is 2 weight classes larger than Loma on that oblate spheroid, Bill Nyetyme.

Re: Floyd vs Loma at 130
Floyd at 130 was ridiculous and he didn't even grow into his weight yet
