2 bouts , 12 rounds each. 130 and 135.

I think, Chavez Sr. would represent the style that is all-wrong for Loma.

That said, I can see Loma being able to squeak it out at 130. Loma could possibly beat the version of Chavez from Laporte fight at Madison Square Garden.

I would lean with Julio Cesar Chavez just because I have never seen Vasily Lomachenko's best fights, yet. But what I saw of the Ukrainian was very impressive . At least he has the speed and ring generalship to frustrate Chavez a little bit.

I don't think Lomachenko could keep Chavez off of him for the entirety of the bout. He'd outbox him in the early going for sure. I don't think he'd keep be able to keep him at bay for the whole fight. I'd have to favor Chavez to wear him down, and either stop him late or narrow the gap enough to win the bout.

I re-watched Chavez-Rosario and Loma-Linares; Loma's speed advantage might win this for him.

Chavez's body work, might diminish that speed advantage too.
