Comments Thread For: Salido: Lomachenko Will Lose, Still Be a Great Amateur

[El Angel]

Lomo about to prove what he can do. Salido is going to get stopped in 8.

Win or lose props to Lomo for not being a pampered baby like most amateur stars fighting over matched opponents in showcases.

Once again Salido will upset the applecart.

But if the judges had Juanma winning in their fights then you best believe Arum will have these judges paid too.

I'm pretty sure he knows this and will come out for the kill.

I don't think Salido ever fights with the mindset of coasting to the cards. Salido has a huge advantage in experience and we know he can fight a hard 12 rounds. Lomachenko looked great for 6 rounds against a so so opponent but his performance didnt show me he's ready to go 12 rounds with a guy like Siri. If Loma doesn't stop Salido in the first half of the fight I think Salido will end up stopping him.

Well, a lot of people felt Donito would be too much too soon for Rigo, and he doesn't seem to have the slightest problem defending his belt.
Remember that Vasyl has more fighting experience than most of the guys that already beat Orlando.
However, Salido carries his power well into the late rounds, which is unknown territory for Lomachenko, could get interesting after the 8-9th.
Almost impossible to pick this one, but Im gonna go with Lomachenko, too quick and talented in the end.

Lomachenko by tko in 9

I am sorry but there is a huge difference between Rigo and Vasyl. Rigo was already in his 30's. Vasyl is in his mid 20's. Rigo had 11 pro fights and had faced actual contenders/Champions. Vasyl has 1 legitimate pro fight against a average fighter.

Lomachencko has a very tall order with tough guy Salido.

Salido has a good chin, heart, stamina and enough punching power to upset Lomachenko.

Yah forreal. Win or lose i feel it's too much too soon for Lomachenko because what happens if he DOES win the WBO in his [technically] 2nd pro fight? He's going to have to suddenly be a target and be facing the top names around the weight to defend his belt. That is too much pressure for a young fighter, he needs to be brought up at the right pace, forcing a belt on him and than attempting to make a Rigo match might ruin this kid's possibly very bright future.

Totally agree. These guys are already talking Rigo after this fight?? This is the pros...he's being brought up too fast.

That's what I'm worried about as well. Gonna be watching the judging very closely, hopefully Salido gets a fair shake if it goes to the cards.

Would hate to see him be a victim of any shady Bob Arum Specials.

Salido should be able to stop him

[QUOTE=Pain~Lucy;14073970]wsb are just w/o head gears, what matters is he's fighting salido! "SALIDO"[/QUOTE wsb is a professional league just like the SMW tournement with the best amateurs of the World, they are getting paid so they are pro

What an intriguing fight.

Solido is hitting Lomachenko with nothing but the truth. There is no comeback to what he just said there

Lomachenko can win, which is exactly what he will do.
