Ciudad, Obregon, Mexico - Former champion Orlando Salido (41-12-2, 28KOs), upon his return to Mexico, reflected on Saturday's victory over two-time Olympic gold medal winner Vasyl Lomacenko (1-1, 1KO) in San Antonio. Lomachenko was attempting to make history by winning a world title (vacant WBO featherweight) in his second professional fight.

The WBO is going to give him another shot at the title? FFS, you may as well just give him the title and not even bother with a fight.

Maybe Lomachenko vs. Gary Russell Jr can be the beginning of the end of the GBP/Top Rank cold war.

He needs people in his corner that has years of experience otherwise he's going to be 3-3 after six fights and he did weigh in at 135 fight night I believe ,I can see fighters still beating him easily his style isn't unbeatable ,RIGO STYLE IS ,MAYWEATHER STYLE IS UNBEATABLE.

Once Mikey vacates you can go after the WBO again

He doesn't deserve a title shot. That should be completely taken off the table until he establishes a professional record that warrants a title around his waste.

Fixed it.

And yes, him getting a title shot after one pro fight is terrible. For all the complaining about the corrupt ref (which is well warranted) a lot of people keep forgetting that Loma didn't deserve a title shot in the first place.

Salido is dirty fighter,only blind can't see it!

[enzothebaker]

Neither Russell or Loma deserve a title shot

Believe it. Loma no experience, Russell most boring boxer EVER. Rigo is mega exciting compared to Russell.
