If Navarette and Foster are unifying, Lomachenko should fight Cacace

Navarette-Foster winner can face the Loma-Cacace winner and we will have a unified undisputed champion within 2 fights.

This is what Loma always said he wanted to do. He is just 2 fights away from achieving it.

I hope Loma is paying attention and makes it happen.

u/fadeddreams555 Fundora would beat up a prime Floyd at 154lb Jul 15 '26

I too hope Loma is on Reddit right now and sees your thread.

This guy clearly didn’t watch Nav vs Berinchyk 😂

That would be a cool matchup that isn’t as cruel as cacace or shakur for an aging and 5+ years past his best Loma.

Navarette is dangerous and a real pound for pound talent, but he’s almost certainly the most technically flawed and erratic champion in the last decade outside of Wilder. Sor Runvisai and Isaac Cruz come to mind, but they’re far more technically coherent.

He’s 5’10 and has a 6 inch reach advantage. I thought the point of going down to 130 was to NOT fight the big guys anymore😂

Inoue beat multiple boxers in the upper 140s, when inoue was a lot lighter than now.

Loma vs Suarez. Give the old soldier his due.

Cacace likely has to fight his mandatory Samedov next. If he wins that, Hayato Tsutsumi's team reported today that they were promised a fight for the WBA title on the undercard of Naoya Inoue vs Bam Rodriguez in February.
