    Come on EL B-both opponents are crap and that is why both are such big underdogs. Now, you are correct, it isn't the same as bringing salka up. but please, can we stop trying to differentiate between -14000 opponents.
    Lol the contexts are a bit different, but you're right, it doesn't matter. If the odds are that bad, there's absolutely no reason for the fight to be made.

      I think Arum wanted Lomachenko v Walters but Loma shot it down so Arum gave him a bum instead.

        He makes far more noise about Turdo Ramirez than he ever has about any European fighter.

        Loma deserves criticism for not taking the Walters fight though.
        Zurdo is a golden egg. He's mexican and already had a following. Lomas market is pretty limited

          I didn't care if Loma was thrown in the deep end if he stayed there. It looks like he's slowly treading water back to the shallow end.

          Crawford I think went on a Christian Missionary thing in Africa for a couple months so that's not really Bob's fault.

            it's a horrible mismatch but it can't be worse than garcia-salka.

            and this loma fight is an undercard...garcia-salka was the ****ing main attraction of the card

              Yikes. Is hbo paying for all the purses? Arum is raping hbo yusaf mack style. All these fights are garbage and unecessary expecially when we're the ones paying for them

                Over three million in purses is insane for what the event is.

                    I agree that Lomo's way overpayed for this fight. Waste of money when there's better fights to be made. Especially since they only paid Roman Gonzalez $250k for Viloria.

                      Maybe this is why Herschman had to resign?
