    Lomachenko's next two opponents will be, Salido, and Yurokis Gamboa. Got beaten by a journeyman, and defeated an overrated Walters, now everyone wants to anoint him P4P king, lmao. Did anybody realize Walters lived off a win against Donaire, who was too small to compete, and Walters is 5'7" with a reach of 70", lmao Cotto is 5'7" with a reach of 67", he's fighting in a division where the tallest fighter are 5'5".

    Lomachenko basically runs from the best fighters in his division, Frampton, Santa Cruz, Selby, Mares, Valdez, Cuellar, all of whom are superior to Walters, and all of whom Donaire and Walters wont go near. He jumps a division and fights the first over rated champion fighter he can find Walters. He wont fight Vargas, Miura, Corrales, Pedraza, Fortuna, by the way another list of fighters Walters and donaire wont go anywhere near. For sure Loma has skillz, but what we have here is an extremely carefully matched fighter, like Terrance Crawford, getting propped up on wins against the outskirt champions of the division. Top rank science. I like Lomachenko but I ain't falling for these bullschit match ups.

        This is like a dream match to me, but Mr. Arum is right...it probably would be a **** fight.

          That Rigo fight on the Cotto Canelo undercard was so bad that I knew he would never get a big fight after that performance. He already had a bad rep for being in stinkers, that was the icing on the cake cuz it really was a **** fight. I would still watch Rigo Loma tho.

            Loma's impressive workrate and technical excellence might bring out the best in Rigo. Or Rigo will just get BTFO badly due to age and not having decent fights for years. If I were a betting man, I'd go with the latter. Rigo is tiny too doe.

                it's a "****" fight because loma ain't gonna be firing off combos at will against a sharpshooter like rigo. he'll be forced to adjust to a boxer in the same, if not even a superior level. salido blocks punches with his forehead and that's what the fans wanna see.

                  I used to be a fan of Rigo but how many times can that guy go to the well.I used to spend a lot of time making excuses,for him, for the no shows, the **** perfomance here and there but now I can't be arsed anymore. He's on the verge of disappearing into oblivion. What a waste - the guy is clearly a ****in half wit otherwise he would take control of matters himself. Who's to blame? He can't be blameless even if his management team is crap. Don't know if anyone will miss this guy if he never boxes again.

                    Rigo ain't coming up to 130 anyway! Arum is still talking Salido, but I heard Loma say Vargas, NOT Salido!
