If it was Mayweather's 2nd pro fight and Salido came in over weight and was allowed to throw low blows with no warnings or point deductions he might beat Mayweather. Who knows? I thought Loma won but the judges gave the fight to Salido.
Nope, he would fold over in the corner and wait for the ref to save him.
Like in the Conor fight, Larry. Or did you forget that one?

Keep fighting the good fight
In his second pro fight and assuming Salido would be the same quality at 130? I mean, maybe. He would have to do it in similar fashion (rough up a new pro with a lot of dirty tactics and Floyd would have to not respond properly/out of his depth in terms of pro experience)
It isn't like Lomachenko didn't have the tools to beat Salido in that fight, he just froze up and didn't know how to deal with being fouled. He eventually started beating Salido up as he got over it. Perhaps Floyd would deal with it better. Floyd didn't have that exact experience, so who knows.
Hell no.
I cannot imagine Floyd EVER losing to someone like Salido, EVER, not even this 40-year-old Floyd, against prime Salido. The two names don't belong in the same sentence.
Boxing blasphemy!
Off topic but I will tell you one guy who would hang a loss on almost all if not all the top 130 pounders today and yesteryear and that is the 130 pound version of Hector Camacho. Not the 135 pound coked out version. Look at only his 130 pound fights....a human blur! This video also reminds me of how BAD I miss Leonard and Jones, my 1st and 4th favorite fighters of all time: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=URyaqxK-1fI

Why are you bringing in a 40 year old Floyd?? I thought we were talking prime for prime
Hell naw....you trippin
I don't think so man....it was big difference In the may that beat hernandez for the belt,compared to the very early may that we first saw in his first few fights....can we at least agree on that?
Could he have beat him? Well one guy can headbutt hit below the belt and pretty much do anything he wants and nothing is done. Oh yeah abd come in way overweight.
Floyd is a dog and would have hit him right back and then some!!!
Lol. Silly thread. Smh.
Serious question man.....people always give loma a hard time about that fight.....that salido could of caught a lot of ealry talent and beat them......
