American coach Teddy Atlas compared the absolute welterweight champion Terence Crawford (40-0, 31 KOs) and ex-champion in three divisions Vasily Lomachenko (17-3, 11 KOs).

“Each fighter has a weight class limit where he can go up. Crawford has already moved up three categories. At what weight can he compete?

Lomachenko also moved up three divisions, but that proved to be his limit. We all see that he can't go beyond lightweight and Crawford is not like that. He has a different body.

Terence has a different skeleton. He can gain more mass because he is wiry. In addition, look at how long his arms are, ”Boxing News 24 quotes Atlas.
