Comments Thread For: Lomachenko vs. Salido is Targeted For January 25th

[King_]

Whys everyone keep saying Arums trying to get rid of Rigo? Lomachenko is the one who wants to start his career of this fast, all Arum is doing is granting his wish

(Talking about Ramirez and Salido) and if he wins a title in 2nd fight, Arum isn't oblivious to reality..... Obviously down the line Rigo-Loma would be a huge and ridiculous fight if possible

[mshap]

this would be a compelling fight -- but let's not kid ourselves about Lomachenko having only 1 professional fight -- in reality, he's been a pro for several years now -- would favor him over Salido but it would definitely be worth watching...

Vasya outboxes him without a doubt. Im a salido fan too but I have to base my prediction on style alone. And vasyas style gets him the W here for sure. I can see salido winging and loma using his footwork and excellent defense to just brush salido off easy. Then after several 5 -6 punch counters from Vasya salido gets a little gun shy and Lomas killer instinct is what hes known for. Forget it. In and out with blistering combos and either stops salido or just beats the shyt out of him for however long it lasts. Salidos footwork betrays him in this fight.

Lomachenko is the real deal. Happy to see this guy come out and make waves.

Lomachenko unifies the division within his first 5 fights.

. What i saw from the fight last night was that he can fight at distance, but really doesnt know what to do close range and infighting. .

Ive seen this said a few times now and i cant wait for it to be disproved. Outfighting is his back up plan if anything.

From what ive seen in amatuer and wsb he's most comfortable on the front foot working his way inside.

Dangerous fight for Lomanchenko. Something about this fight just makes me not trust Bob Arum.

Somebody please explain to me how is it possible to get a tittle shot in your second prof fight? What about fighters that are actually worthy of the tittle shot, can't they do something like complaint to the WBO ? Arum is not good for boxing

Completely possible, salido is the toughest fight at 126, if he can beat him, he can beat Gradovich

Salido will run over him
