How embarrassing will it be when Lomachenko goes 1-2? Lol

How would that be embarrassing? He would've lost to a champ who didn't even bother making weight in his second pro bout. He basically lost the fight because of a lack of experience. If he were to lose to Russell it'll be in a close fight against a talented young fighter, even if he hasn't been tested against legit contenders. You dudes need to make up your mind do you want fighters protected or do you want them taking risks.

Something between these two extremes. I don't want to see overprotected hypejobs, but they all need to be protected a little, especially early in their careers.
To have a record of 1-2 after 3 fights for a guy with Lomachenko's amateur pedigree would be unacceptable.
I still say there is no way this fight happens, whichever side wins the other will walk, but hopefully it does come off it would be an interesting fight.
