[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

MGM Grand, Las Vegas - Former three division world champion Abner Mares is not confident that Gary Russell Jr. would accept a fight with two-time Olympic gold medal winner Vasyl Lomachenko - even with a vacant WBO featherweight title at stake.

BoxingScene.com reported on Thursday that Golden Boy Promotions CEO, Richard Schaefer, was ready and willing to match Russell (24-0, 14KOs) against Lomachenko (1-1, 1KO) for the vacant belt.

Russell is a joke

Loma has nothing to lose!!! For his 2nd pro fight it was v. good performance and don't see the point of holding him back now.

In couple of fights he will be ready for salido again and will probably stop him

Mares knows a dirty fighter when he sees one. Interesting comments nonetheless.

At least Mares acknowledges a dirty fighter as he played the same cards not so long ago.

Jhonny Gonzales doesn't think so..he flat out refused to fight Russell.

Loma won't be around for a Solido rematch.... if he fights Russell.

I like mares as a fighter,but the only thing that he said made any kind of sense. Was the fact that salido is a experienced fighter.

And we're still not sure if Mares wants that rematch against Jhonny Gonzalez. He's right about Russell Jr. though.

Russell if the manditory for the vacant belt..
Loma would get his career ended if he fights him.
