Comments Thread For: Team Lomachenko: Pacquiao Must Go To 135 - No Catch-Weight!

That is complete bull****. I seem to remember Rigo demanding 124 and a rehydration clause because he apparently wasn't brave enough to move up just 4 whole pounds.

So I guess lomo was less brave to move down 4 pounds to a smaller man?

just fight crawford then. kill 2 birds with 1 stone. demolish crawford and the floyd fans altogether. mufasa paquiao is back to claim his spot!

You are like a bob arum paid journalist or a "boxing expert" that "Don't Know ***** Bout Boxing" casual....LMMFAO!

But rigo moved from 122 to 130 , and Loma can not move 5 pounds ? Loma walks at more than 140 , it shouldn’t be an issue.

He has moved up 2 weight classes in 12 pro fights. If Manny is so desperate to fight him then it will happen at 135 where Lomachenko is a reigning champion. Personally I think Manny should fight someone relevant in his own weight class or retire. He was calling out Lomachenko when Loma was still at 130, it's pathetic.

As a grown a*s man. If they were to fight then it SHOULD be at 140. Manny though, SHOULD retire cuz he looked old in that ring & Lucas looked older.

I've seen guys like Manny, Floyd, and Oscar climb mountains to get to the top of the game. Fighting guys much bigger than them. Moving up and taking on guys is a part of the game to get the crown.

If they pass this up, I understand. But it's also something that will leave a bad taste in my mouth. I'd expect more from him at 30 years old. This is a fight that could change his life.

True but the lomo fans want him to go through an easy road to credit him more.

PU55Y MOVE by Team Lomachenko. Got a feeling Bobby is behind all this. 140 Lbs seems like the perfect weight class for Pacquiao-Lomachenko.

Pac vs Khan 1st than Loma or Crawford.

Nah, Pac retire. Him & Lucas both looked old....LOL

[HandsofIron]

Well I guess that settles that, Loma's too small for Pac and Pac's too old to go back down to 135.

Pac vs Bud it is then, for Sept, dood it!

Hey boys, Rigo didn't have to go up 2 weight classes if he accepted the fight earlier at the lighter weight lol.

Lomachenko has reached his weight limit at 135. We saw that vs Linares. Guys like Pac that climb weight classes with blazing speed and awkward angles and pop in their punches don't come around very often. Lomachenko ias a beast but he doesn't carry enough pop to beat legit 140lb world class guys or maybe even a shot Pac they may think.

If Loma would have said sure I will fight Manny at 140, the same peeps bashing him for ducking Manny now would claim he is only going up to fight an old man so he can duck Mikey Garcia.

Same sh|t just a different day.
