Arum is not rushing Lomachenko

[Khmelnytsky]

People keep trash talking Bob Arum and Top Rank for rushing Lomachenko saying it is because they are desperate for a star even though Bob has stated he wanted to go the normal prospect route. Lomachenko was the one who wanted to break the record by winning a title in his second fight (current record is three) and had it written into the contract, it was the entire basis for him signing with Top Rank. In the pre-fight interviews you could see Bob was a little skeptical about such a tough debut too but its his job to promote it and the pay off is obviously big.

Vasyl is ambitious he wasn't bullied into it by Arum. People should know that.

So basically he rushed him before he even signed him.... we all knew bob was going to try it before this fight

So Salido vs Lomachenko is next?


If Lomachenko beats Salido in only his second fight, he would be off to a HOF start.

No doubt if he beats Salido he's started his career at a HOF pace

The division and his promoter have the talent to assist too. Top Rank has WBO Salido, IBF Gradovich, WBA Walters, Donaire, Juanma Lopez and Rigondeaux at 122. Mares and Ponce De Leon are Golden Boy but what about Gonzalez? Alot of great fights to make.

With Salido/Lomacenko coming up... Donaire will most likely fight Walters... why else would they sign him?

There is no need to rush him, he's obviously a great talent, but they should build him up, let him get more experience, if you throw him in too deep too soon you could ruin him

I don't think there's a single HOF fighter who started at such a pace, as you suggest with a possible Salido title win in fight #2.

Loma has a chance to be a really great champion but Bob is rushing him with Salido
