He has to win to rewrite boxing history and I think he will lose to a tough proven pro champion. If he wins it is a great victory so we will soon see if a great amateur with no pro experience can beat a proven pro champ. Rigo did it but Cubans are sort of pro amateurs because the government take very good care of them.Comment

Rigo is better IMO but the Russian states support their boxers also and Lomachenko is as much a pro amateur as Rigo was. I think Lomachenko will win a tough fight but he won't look as good as Rigondeaux did beating Donair and Donair is a lot better than Salido.He has to win to rewrite boxing history and I think he will lose to a tough proven pro champion.

Rigo beat Donaire in a awesome fight but that was his 12th fight as pro , more time to get used to pro style, Salido is not as good as Donaire but this Vasyl 2nd fight, This a tougher 2nd fight that Rigo took in his second fight.
I am thinking they are rushing Vasyl, but if all works out maybe he will face rigo in the next 18 months that would be pretty cool, then we won't have to guess as much about how good they are.Comment

Not being a hater but don't be surprised if this is a short career. With over 400 fights as an amateur, his fights will catch up with him. I hope I'm wrong but having that many fights eventually catch up and it's been shown quite a bit with Medalist with such a long career.Comment
