I think so too, at least at this point.

That's just insane. Inoue started out at 115, and even now is still 4 weight classes below Loma. No way in hell this ever happens.

The biggest potential matchups that they'd possibly be able to make for him are Mikey Garcia, Berchelt and Tank Davis...and I get the feeling Tank wants no part of him.

When Loma was at Inoue's current age, he weighten only 3kg/6,6lbs more. We'll see but i think that Inoue who is still only 26 years old will go as far as feather/super feather.

The other fights that you mentioned would be great to, i would like to see Loma vs Berchelt the most out of them

Yeah I actually Berchelt vs Loma would be more interesting than Tank vs Loma as Berchelt I think has a style that would trouble him more.

These guys could & should all fight each other. Tbe weight is an issue that's easily sorted out if the fights are made.

Fight at 140.5. Welterweight fight for belt. Pac can make it easily.

that would be more like the odlh situation.
but pac is still good at 147. is no. 3 contender.
loma is a lightweight only, a small one. got knocked down already. so he doesnt have the power to carry up.
loma is looking to unify lightweight, then go back down to 130, maybe pick off a belt at 140, maybe down the line at 147.
he's not pacquiao level.

I believe his extensive amateur career has already started taking its toll...gaining extra weight will certainly affect his ability to move in the ring as well as his reflexes..what's the point of taking this risk and inevitably fail? Just to keep some fans happy?

I don't think he'd fail against Pac, but I wouldn't recommend him fighting any other big name from 140 on up.

He wouldn't. If Loma wants him he'd have to come all the way to 147 no doubt.

Precisely, manny doesn't need lomachenko to cement his legacy he will retire as an all time great.
