Cmon, with the context of his 3rd fight being Russell it's crazy impressive but you're knee deep in his resume koolaid. I believe you said that Crawford could beat d Garcia, Thurman and Porter and he still wouldn't measure up.
Russell, Rigondeaux, Linares, Walters are all pretty damn big wins, and his next tier wins ain't bad either.

Crawford's single biggest is still either Gamboa or Khan. He has lots of solid next tier guys as well, but I don't think it's unfair to say he'd at least need to beat 2 of those 3 to catch up to where Loma's resume is.

Or a single win over Spence would do it in one fell swoop.

Considering that he's kinda stalling out at Welterweight I imagine that's why they're planning to catch people's eye by having him go up 2 weight classes at once to Middle. Though even there he may still have the problem of not being able to get the biggest fights. We'll see.

I guess Al has control over all the big names at 154 huh? I'd imagine that's the only reason he'd skip that division entirely. Either that or he just has a specific match at Middleweight (most likely Murata) in mind.
:TU:
Forgot about Rigo. But yeah pretty damn solid wins considering that are early in Loma's career. In Loma's first 12 fights as a pro he fought these top fighters. Very impressive. Very few p4p fighters did that.

Lomachenko should fight Tank in the new year, that's what I want to see.
