    I love that idea. Hopefully Gamboa gets a fight against Fortuna and beats him. I want to see Gamboa vs. Walter or Loma. I want Pedraza in the mix as well, but I didn't know he was Haymon. I doubt Haymon and Top Rank work anytime soon, unfortunately.

    130 is stacked, people that don't watch boxing except mainstream think it's a weak division. But it's actually a really great weight class.

    I wanted to see Loma face Vetyeka and then Selby, but Selby just doesn't want it.

      Lomachenko is ducking Walters, plain and simple.
      Walters weighed around 145 against Marriaga on fight night if i remember correctly. I wouldn't consider him a featherweight anymore.

        one of the first things selby said after winning his title was that he was looking forward to testing himself against lomachenko, russell jr and walters. it's par for the course that eddie hearn will milk a few easy-ish defences out of him before risking the title, but i think selby will go for unification next year. but i suspect that he'll target russell jr first of all

          So it was Ok to ask Rigo to come up and be outweighed by Loma on fight night but its not ok for Loma to fight a guy who would outweight him? Hmmm

              I have no opinion on any of that stuff i just think Walters should move up to JLW and when Loma moves up or if they wanna work out a deal then that's fine.

                Sorry dude but this one is as simple as it gets- If he makes weight on the scales, he is in the division. If his next fight is at 126 and he makes 126, he is a FW. If he misses again, well then its time to go to 130.

                  there's the possibility of him signing to face lomachenko at 126 lbs and then missing weight again. loma already faced this scenario once against salido and i don't blame him for being weary now

                    This is how I know you have no idea WTH you're talking about. The only ones that ever talk about Rigo fighting Loma or even Walters is Rigo's team and his fans. Rigo fans are always stating that Loma or Walters are scared of Rigo, but then they want them to move down to fight him, which is laughable.

                    Go check out Caribe's twitter they are always talking mad **** about Loma. Here is there twitter: https://twitter .com/promotioncaribe
                    Then Rigo fans reply by saying Loma is a ***** and what not. But then we have people like you that want to blame it all on Loma and his fans. Claiming we are the ones saying, "Oh Rigo has to move up to face Loma doe." When it's the other side that are always talking tough, but want them to go down for him.
                    We have no problem with Rigo wanting to stay at his weight, but Rigo fans should stop running their damn mouths.

                    Oh I forgot, you're that one guy that just wanted to troll lmao.


                    Here is the thing about Selby for anyone interested, not the same article I read yesterday though:

                      True, but Loma didn't lose to Salido just because of the weight. he was in over his head with a bigger more experienced fighter, which shouldn't be surprising since it was his 2nd pro fight.

                      Walters appears more skilled than Salido, but lacks the experience. I think Loma doesn't want to go in with a skilled, bigger fighter right now. He needs to learn how to fight differently to have success against that type of opponent.

                      That's fine and smart IMO, but you can't expect him not to get some criticism.
