If you watched the fights on HBO tonight then you heard yet again Lampley and Kellerman insult and denigrate Salido for his win against Loma. Sounding like childish sore losers they continued to **** all over Salido's win over Loma. Sounding very ticked off at Salido for beating HBO's golden boy. Lampley basically said Saildo only won because he broke the rules and cheated. It was the tone of Lampley that ticks me off the most. As if no fighter has ever come in overweight and tried to use a weight advantage. I did not see HBO and Lampley crying about weight when Alvarez came in 20+ pounds over Cotto or how Bernard Hopkins does a lot of the same thing.
I am a big fan of Loma, but his over confidence and disregard of how good Salido really is is why he lost. As an old warrior Salido did what he had to do to win and showed Loma what being a pro is all about. I think in losing Loma has learned much more than if he had won the fight easily, which is what he and HBO thought he would do. As I recall Salido wanted to move to 130 and was up front about the fact that he could not make 126 anymore, but I am sure HBO pushed him to make the fight at a weight he was no longer comfortable with all because they thought Loma would embarrass him.
I also do not think Salido should give him a rematch. Salido does not need it and frankly neither does Loma. It was a great learning fight for Loma and he should just move on.
As for Lampley and Kellerman they need to get over it and stop being so disrespectful to one of boxings great warriors who is always forced to go into is opponents backyard to fight. And Lampley also accused Salido of headbutting Vargas over and over causing Vargas's cuts, I do not recall this happening. If I am wrong please correct me, but if not then Lampley is just making **** up and disrespecting Salido, yet again.
Lampley and Kellerman go out of there way to disrespect Salido, but yet kiss the ass of fighters like Crawford, while being a great talent is an *******. His interview tonight certainly confirmed him being an *******, not only in boxing, but if you read the news, he is an ******* outside of the ring too. I guess he learned nothing from the way Ali made peace with his opponents after the fight.
