    Thx for the translation, this much work for free, and for complete strangers' sake...

    As for Loma, he is not exactly mr. personality, but that's ok. He lets his fists do the talking.

      Beating Salido is a tough ask, wouldn't be surprised to see the wiley vet pull this out.

        He will make it hell for sure I think for Loma to win and will employ all his 'wily' pro skills, probably throw some dirty tactics in to try and unsettle Loma, but IMO when a guy is so naturally talented yet not one to hype himself greatly or believe hype, young and constantly improving, and really doesn't know how to lose (and also great attitude when that happens, dominate at first rematch opportunity to avenge his one and only loss), I just think Lomachenko will do it. Also, he is being smart right now saying he is an 'unknown fighter' and Salido can be classed as a 'star' of the sport compared to him, takes the pressure off himself. In any case, I'm really confident that he can get the W, I just don't think he will allow himself to have his unbeaten career dream crushed at this stage.

          I'd be surprised if Vasyl didn't pull it off in impressive fashion tbh. He has too much as far as technique, speed/precision and overall offensive variation. He's normally a pretty aggressive, highly defensively responsible fighter but I'm thinking more in the way of flex versatility here unless he wants a messy affair and against Salido he won't even need to look to create his own offense, the openings and punching angles will be handed to him on all but a gold platter and Orlando won't know what's hitting him. Plenty of practical, lateral movement and aggressive, accurate counterpunching. Siri will keep coming to the bitter end though, that we know. If there are any concerns, they probably come down to the pacing over 12 rounds and maintaining his poise, which is undoubtedly something Salido is going to look to rattle from the outset and make it uncomfortable.

            That was pretty incredible, 58-13 over five fights in Beijing including the domination of Selimov to win the Val Barker trophy, then 63-7 at the following 2009 World Championships.

                Apparently Bob Arum wants to match up Mikey Garcia with Lomachenko or Pacquiao...gonna post a separate thread on that...but damn, just imagine if a Loma 10 fight resume would include wins against Salido, Garcia, and Rigo - too crazy to even believe...

                  He's going to be P4P material before very long. Saying that is a big turn off for a lot of people, but I believe in his ability.
