Valdez vs. Lomanchenko on Crawford-Postol undercard

[about.thousands]

Lomanchenko can still make 126. Easy fight to make since both fighters are with Top Rank. I would buy this PPV.

Pointless fight. Martinez is a decent fighter but this fight sets up nothing for the future. If/When he beats Martinez what happens next? The Valdez fight would be a good fight to make now on the Crawford PPV.

not pointless at all, it gets loma a belt at 130, which sets up a unification vs vargas-salido winner, salido would be a very interesting rematch, and it would make the walters fight bigger with a belt on the line. Uchiyama is also there too.

Totally agree.

Per @CarlMoretti, fight that TR will try to make for 7/23 Crawford-Postol PPV is Ryota Murata-Matt Korobov. Interesting. #boxing

If he beats Martinez he win the WBO title at 130 , but must fight Miguel Berchet next since his the WBO interim champion

The Salido rematch could've been made already. The Walters fight could've been made if Arum would pay him a fair share. The problem is Lomachenko guarantee is so high that the other fighters can't get paid a fair amount. You think Salido is going to take a smaller cut of the guy he beat? You think Vargas is gonna take a smaller cut for beating the guy Loma lost to? Every big fight with Loma doesn't happen because of money. He's being paid to much and won't take a cut to make the fight happen. People talk about PBC fighters being overpaid but Loma is the most overpaid fighter in the sport. He's getting $750k to fight bums.
