    Self explanatory. From 126-135, who's the best guy in history you would favor Loma over?

    At 130, I would pick Loma over Brian Mitchell.

    Mitchell was superb and a HOFmer.

    So I guess that's my answer.

    Mitchell would outbox Corrales, and I'm Fightbeat's biggest Chico fan.

    I somehow doubt it. I really do.

    Mid 70s Lopez is extremely underrated. He had pretty destructive reign. Hes GOING to land... Loma is not a defensive wiz.

    And when Lopez lands, I dont trust Loma's chin to handle the bombs Sanchez took.

    I think Lil Red lays Loma the fuck out.

    Hard to say.

    But if he could beat Elorde, I assure you he is the ONLY Filipino southpaw Loma is beating at 130.

    I think he could beat Ben Villaflor... :D

    Although I also think he could absolutely lose to him.

    Forgot Villaflor lol.

    Villaflor could level Loma if he caught him right, but Loma is definitely a better technician.

    He’s live against pretty much any pure boxing stylist from 126-130.

    I think it'd be very similar to either Shibata fight. Despite the fact that they're about as different as you can get.

    I think he'd beat guys like Winstone and Famechon.

    That's the level I'd put him on.

    Interesting. I think Loma is the better fighter, but Barry must be the most difficult fighter possibly for him, stylistically.

    Gut instinct is Barry. And I don't have that Brit bias, since I've always disliked him for beating the shit outta Pedroza, who's always been one of my favourite featherweights.
