      When was that? Why didn't it happen then? And; does that mean the fight doesn't matter now?

        A true peasant would do what you suggested....dive at what ever coins Bob tossed on the ground.

        Props to him.

        Arum could have made this rematch long ago but he waited until Salido was at a disadvantage.

            What!? I really don't remember. Maybe Loma ducked and I missed it.

              WHY NOW?
              Part of the delay was that Loma hadn't moved up to 130 yet whereas Salido moved up immediately after their first fight because he couldn't make 126 in the first place.

              This is a duck. Sorry.

                  That's true but at this point I'm just hoping they could work something out.
                  Corrales would be the best choice if they can't get Salido next.

                    Salido has fought everyone without hesitation and gave us great memories but now he's a duck because he wants to get paid more for a rematch. Arum has the $$$ time for him to start paying these opponents if he wants these fights to get made so bad.

                    I swear boxing fans are the worst fans of all sports. Salido gave us a quarter of his life in wars but now he's a duck......what the ****

                      Ducklando pulling a Marquez here

                      running away with his lucky victory

                      he knows he has no chance in the rematch

                      this is sad, he used to be one of the few true warriors in the sport

                      now he's just another ducker
