    Comments Thread For: Lomachenko's Prowess Deserves More Than Middling Stand-Ins

    Hype job. beats a poor guy who is rusty and had not fought in a year. beats shot dehydrated Martinez. barely wins a SD against Gary. Salido schooled him.

          In 8 fights Floyd was still learning how to throw a jab.

              We'll find out how good he is if he fights Mikey Garcia! Until then, he needs Salido rematch!

                Getting him good fights is going to be the hardest part.

                He's going to have to move up again in the not too distant future and see what's available up there. I'd love to see him in the UK to beat up Flanagan before a Linares/Garcia scrap.

                  Salido made it clear he wanted no part of a rematch.

                  It would appear that ship has sailed.

                    Well, that will just be a permanent stain on his record! If he beats Mikey, no one will remember!
