    Comments Thread For: Lomachenko vs. Oquendo on Bradley-Marquez Bill?

    According to sources in Puerto Rico, Jonathan Oquendo (23-3, 16 KO's), who on Saturday night scored a fourth round knockout of Mexico's Miguel Tamayo (14-7-2, 12 KO's), could be fighting again in October 12 with highly regarded Ukrainian prospect Vasyl Lomachenko - who will make his professional debut on the Juan Manuel Marquez vs. Timothy Bradley HBO Pay-Per-View at the Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas.

    Lomachenko, who was recently signed by Top Rank, won gold medal in the 2008 and 2012 Olympic Games and has one of the most impressive amateur runs in boxing history. In the 2012 games, he even defeated hot Puerto Rican prospect Felix Verdejo (14-9), who himself was signed by Top Rank in 2012. In the 2007 World Championships, Lomachenko beat Abner Cotto 26-9 en route to winning the silver medal. [Click Here To Read More]

    Hmm, just had a quick look and Oquendo's not in the WBO featherweight rankings, but that shouldn't be a problem given TR's relationship with them, never mind that Oquendo's Puerto Rican

                So i assume loma will be campaigning at featherweight,,,,,,

                that means we will probably be fighting for a vacant belt in his 2nd fight,,,,

                would like to see him vs donaire down the road in 2014/15

                  Yeah he's not in their top 15 so unless that changes it wont work for their plan to have Vasyl face the Salido/Cruz winner for the title. Looking at Oquendo's record and the regional WBO eliminators he's won im suprised he isn't ranked top 15 already.

                    Oquendo is being lead by the blind.
