I don't think Loma is the same fighter now that he was when he faced Salido. Loma has faced a bunch of different pro styles now and has learned I'm sure and adjusted. Salido was a rare breed though, a tough Mfer who did anything he could get away with to win. It's the refs fault, not his that he got away with all the low blows. That ref was horrific all fight.
I just seen the rankings you posted, however as you know rankings vary among diverse panels. By your own admission you rank Ryoichi Taguchi top ten according to the link you provided, again, whether you rank Ryoichi 2 or #10. for a prospect to be fighting a top ten opponent in his eight professional bout is a clear indication that Kosei is special.
Old Orlando Salidoe was ranked #6. according to TBR when Vasily lost. Kosei Tanaka past his test at world level against a top ten ranked opponent, Bumchenko failed.
In the spirit of honesty I had Bomba up on the cards by a round or 2 before the multiple knockdowns in round 7 I believe. I know I'm not the only one since I checked on my scorecard app. Kosei is good but is still defensively vulnerable and was getting hit a lot.
