    It goes back to ColdBlooded's post. It depends.

    How is a win over Ramirez better than a win over Ruiz? Who has Ramirez beaten? One can make the argument that Ruiz beat a fresher Bautista therefore Ruiz is a better win than Ramirez. Ruiz is/was also more seasoned than Ramirez.

      Honestly I don't care or even what to debate who is better Ruiz or Ramirez, both Russell and loma have very bare resumes that basically comes down who beat the better fringe contender..

          Well it depends on how you define resume. To me resume is everyone you've fought not just who you beat. Also I'm looking into the fact that in Lomachenko first fight he fought someone as tough if not tougher than gary has in 24 professional bouts

            Then Ill bring up my same argument, hows Ramirez better/tougher than Ruiz?

            As far as the rest of your post goes, you could be right. But do resumes really matter in this fight? I dont think they will come Saturday night. Both guys have faced some type of adversity. I think the better fighter will just win.

              Salido> GRJ resume. That being said he did loose that fight, so has to be even just because he had the balls to face a guy like Salido in his second fight even if it was just because he underestimated the guy and overestimated himself.

                It's quite difficult to figure out how good Russell Jr. is. I've seen multiple fights of his, but the opposition was so poor I couldn't learn anything from them. Just that he seems to cover up well, has fast hands, and is flatfooted.

                  He seems to fight well on the inside tho. Or maybe his opposition just ******. Who knows.

                      I voted for Russel because he is undefeated in 24 pro fights compared to 2 wins in the pros for Lomachenko and pro boxing is much different than amateur boxing. The way amateur fights are scored is BS. Fighters get much better when they are paid.
