I heard this fight might happen later this year.
This would be a good step up for Lomachenko. I haven't actually seen any of Vetyeka's fights, because what videos there are of his fights are in terrible quality, but from what I've heard, he has a decent skill set, and is rugged.
This could be Lomachenko's chance to show how he's grown as a fighter since the Salido fight.
Who wins?
I included the whole quote. Do I also need to look for the threads where you Loma fans tell Rigo to stop being a p*ussy and move up to fight Loma?
Why dont you Loma fans do the same and tell Loma to stop being a p*ssy and fight the bigger guy? Answer me that question.
I included the whole article so that people that want to check out what leads to that quote, can do so. So they won't just see the BS you're trying to pull.
If Walters can make weight, we'll have the fight sooner rather than later. The fight will happen sooner or later. The only thing now is that it may not happen next, because someone couldn't make weight. But trolls like you, that have nothing better to do, are trying to make it seem like Loma doesn't want it. Walters wasn't too keen on fighting Loma after the Donaire fight. I understood, I wasn't saying that Walters was a p*ssy because he didn't want the fight next. I wasn't in Walters camp so I don't know why he didn't want the fight just yet, I didn't go make assumptions that Walters was scared because I had no idea what was going on in his head.
Like I said before Loma will move up when he wants to. He's not going be like, "Oh JSFD thinks I'm scared of Walters, I should move up to please him!!" GTFO
If Walters made weight in the first place, we wouldn't be having this conversation now would we?
If Walters made weight and Loma still didn't want to fight him, then I would be on your side and say that Loma probably doesn't want anything to do with Walters, simple as that.
come on dude, cut it out.
The transitional Boxing Board has Walters (#1) and Vetyekea(#2) ranked ahead of Loma. SO a win proves who the best 126lber in the world is.
If Loma loses it will be because Walters is better than him. Salido was better than Loma at that point, in addition to being bigger.
i don't know what you're trying to argue about, i already said in this thread that i want to see lomachenko-walters, i just don't blame him for not wanting to enter into a big fight with significant disadvantages in size and experience again, considering what happened last time. if it was up to me, loma would fight vetyeka asap and then face walters somewhere between 126 and 128 before the end of the year. i'd rather loma-walters occurred at a catchweight because then walters wouldn't have to drain himself and loma could train for size himself and cancel out some of walters' advantage. lomachenko-rigondeaux is a fight i don't particularly need to see - for rigo's sake more than anything else (although i would of course tune in if it did get made)
I know exactly what article that is: http://ring tv. craveonline .com/news/384299-qa-vasyl-lomachenko-talks-rigondeaux-santa-cruz-and-cash-vs-competition
You forgot to mention that Loma was just answering the question. He said Rigo's team have been calling him to fight, but they want it at catchweight and the only way that fight happens is at 126. Why the f*ck is Loma going to move down for him? Loma wasn't the one initiating it, he said he doesn't like to talk about guys smaller than him out of respect. Like Loma said if he really wants to fight, he'll will be at 126. You act like Loma is the one saying, "Hey, Rigo come up and fight you freaking p*ssy."
Here ya go butthurt troll :bottle: :fing26:

i don't want to see mayweather-golovkin at 160 or 154, and i only want to see ward-kovalev if ward becomes a naturalised lhw (just like i only want to see ward-golovkin if/when golovkin becomes a naturalised smw)
i think lomachenko would beat him and it wouldn't prove much because it'd primarily be because loma is simply too big for him

LMFAO!! You want to see Floyd fight GGG at 160 and Ward fight Kov at 175 so when exactly did you become someone that "don't like to see fighters lose primarily because of a size disadvantage"?

Can you just admit Loma isn't good enough to beat Rigo right now and you do not want to see a fighter you like lose?
i think lomachenko would beat him and it wouldn't prove much because it'd primarily be because loma is simply too big for him
well, why should be move down? he's evidently comfortable at 126 lbs so he's under no obligation to fight at 124 lbs or 128 lbs or whatever else other fighters want to ask of him. i don't like to see fighters lose primarily because of a size disadvantage, and for that reason i want rigo to stay at 122 and loma to stay at 126, until it gets to a point where they can't healthily make the weight any more (which is unlikely to ever happen in rigo's case). i mean it sounds like a nice fight on paper, but we have divisions for a reason

Like I said in the other thread, Lomachenko fans talked crap and said he didn't need to fight Walters cause Walters doesn't have a belt. But they're gonna praise this fight and as you can see, it's already happening.
Lomachenko is ducking Walters, plain and simple.
Loma wants none of that Caribbean power.
This is how I know you have no idea WTH you're talking about. The only ones that ever talk about Rigo fighting Loma or even Walters is Rigo's team and his fans.
***8220;If he wants me come down to his weight or to some catch-weight then I am not interested,***8221; Lomachenko said via ******.com. ***8220;No. I will never come down. If you are the best, as you say, and you cleaned out the division then come on up 3 kg and fight me.***8221;
Here you go
there's the possibility of him signing to face lomachenko at 126 lbs and then missing weight again. loma already faced this scenario once against salido and i don't blame him for being weary now
True, but Loma didn't lose to Salido just because of the weight. he was in over his head with a bigger more experienced fighter, which shouldn't be surprising since it was his 2nd pro fight.
Walters appears more skilled than Salido, but lacks the experience. I think Loma doesn't want to go in with a skilled, bigger fighter right now. He needs to learn how to fight differently to have success against that type of opponent.
That's fine and smart IMO, but you can't expect him not to get some criticism.
So it was Ok to ask Rigo to come up and be outweighed by Loma on fight night but its not ok for Loma to fight a guy who would outweight him? Hmmm
This is how I know you have no idea WTH you're talking about. The only ones that ever talk about Rigo fighting Loma or even Walters is Rigo's team and his fans. Rigo fans are always stating that Loma or Walters are scared of Rigo, but then they want them to move down to fight him, which is laughable.
Go check out Caribe's twitter they are always talking mad sh*t about Loma. Here is there twitter: https://twitter .com/promotioncaribe
Then Rigo fans reply by saying Loma is a ***** and what not. But then we have people like you that want to blame it all on Loma and his fans. Claiming we are the ones saying, "Oh Rigo has to move up to face Loma doe." When it's the other side that are always talking tough, but want them to go down for him.
We have no problem with Rigo wanting to stay at his weight, but Rigo fans should stop running their damn mouths.
Oh I forgot, you're that one guy that just wanted to troll lmao.
Here is the thing about Selby for anyone interested, not the same article I read yesterday though:

Sorry dude but this one is as simple as it gets- If he makes weight on the scales, he is in the division. If his next fight is at 126 and he makes 126, he is a FW. If he misses again, well then its time to go to 130.

Walters weighed around 145 against Marriaga on fight night if i remember correctly. I wouldn't consider him a featherweight anymore.

I have no opinion on any of that stuff i just think Walters should move up to JLW and when Loma moves up or if they wanna work out a deal then that's fine.

I love that idea. Hopefully Gamboa gets a fight against Fortuna and beats him. I want to see Gamboa vs. Walter or Loma. I want Pedraza in the mix as well, but I didn't know he was Haymon. I doubt Haymon and Top Rank work anytime soon, unfortunately.
130 is stacked, people that don't watch boxing except mainstream think it's a weak division. But it's actually a really great weight class.
I wanted to see Loma face Vetyeka and then Selby, but Selby just doesn't want it.
one of the first things selby said after winning his title was that he was looking forward to testing himself against lomachenko, russell jr and walters. it's par for the course that eddie hearn will milk a few easy-ish defences out of him before risking the title, but i think selby will go for unification next year. but i suspect that he'll target russell jr first of all
