You seem to always have something bad to say about Eastern European any chance you get, so of course I was suspect of you. If you dislike Lomachenko, cool, but don't say things without knowing why first.
Different opportunities in different parts of the World.
Fighters from Nicaragua, Philippines, or Mexico aren't getting financial help from their government or business men, so they have to turn pro early.
There is a big fan base for Filipino and Mexican boxers, so there will be more pro opportunities for them. Eastern European and Asian fighters have to find other ways of making money. And one of the ways is to stay amateurs since they get financial support. Pro boxing is still new in Eastern Europe.
It took Chocolatito about 7 years to finally get recognized and even then people still crap on the guy. And I'm not even a Chocolatito fan, I think several of his fans are ungrateful and they always feel the need to crap on other fighters, not in Roman's weight class, but just because he has crazy fans doesn't mean I can give the guy his props. Every fighter has those type of fans anyway.
