Comments Thread For: Arum Gives Update on Lomachenko vs. Salido Rematch

Unnecessary Rematch

This fight is a waste of time. Loma only fights twice a year when he should be fighting 4 or 5 times a year. Wasting a fight on Salido when we all know that a rematch would be one-sided. He should use all his efforts into fighting other champions. He should list the Salido loss as much needed experience. He gained more in that loss than he would of gained by an easy win (which he thought it was going to be). He gained the experience of how much different the pros are from the amateurs. I think in that one loss he gained the experience equal to many more fights.

And if I were Salido I would not take the rematch, he is older and has much more wear and tear on him now. He just cannot win. Let the old pro have this win without trying to denigrate him. It is just that some people like those at HBO hate the fact that this wily old Mexican veteran was able to beat their "golden boy". It is not like the loss makes Loma any less of a fighter or impedes his very promising future in any way.

but you are not salido and saying that salido cannot win is rediculous...just because he is older does not mean he does not have what it takes to beat loma...

Rematch needs to happen, no point in dragging it out any longer.

Hope it happens this summer as that they can get the money right for both sides.

Loma by TKO. Bring on Berchelt after that for the WBC super featherweight, Then Mikey Garcia for WBC lightweight . Three Mexicans in row.

Would walk away with at LEAST 1 of them being a loss. Hell maybe 2.

I'd like to see this fight. It's the only blemish on Lomachenko's record. He needs to avenge it and do it in one sided devastating fashion.

Salido is past his prime. Loma is a coward,should fight Mikey Garcia or Berchelt.

This is the best comment so far.

lol your pvssy ass making excuses for saildo already. salido sure hasn't fought like a fighter who's past his prime. all his recent fights have been really competitive fights where he could have gotten the decision. I bet you were one of them turds who said loma would duck a rematch with salido.
