I'll favor him over all of them.
You were gone?
Re: Loma versus the other top Featherweights
Who are you? Where have you been? Why did you go?

Loma looks awfully big for a feather but I think Mares does the same thing Salido did. Takes advantage of where the ref is, throws some cheap shots and stays on his chest. Abner could also get laid out. I dont see anyone beating Walters at the moment although he does stand pretty straight up at times and could be another Tyrone Brunson.
On a personal level I hope Gary gets a rematch and if he has a clause he should forgo the warm up. I think and I hope that loss helps Gary. A loss used to be a badge of honour at the highest level but now it can be the loss of a career in more ways then one. Thats a pity. The greats go for immediate rematches. Floyd did with Castillo based on perception alone. Leonard went after Duran, Oscar got Shane again. Robinson got Pender, Fullmer etc etc. That loss should be Gary's confidence builder and not some schlep that he could beat with one hand as some "come back" fight. That kind of coddling is largely responsible for why he got beat.
I like Tysons quote from an interview yesterday.

I think once promoters start putting their fighters in fights they might lose, it will bring out the best in boxing.

Words that ring true, from Iron Mike.
He could've been referring to any number of fighters... but I wonder if he was thinking about Deontay Wilder when he said that.

I need to be honest I'm not sure Russell can beat Loma.
How about Russell Jr. versus Mares? Great fight, easily made, because both guys are with Haymon. Let's see if it happens.
So, you think Walters and Mares out of the above fighters, potentially could be tough for Loma.
I'd like to see Loma take a fight or two and then face Donaire.
