Re: Lomachenko Next fight?
As much as I would like to see him avenge the Salido fight, I doubt any money will tempt Salido. He';s finished. He would end up quitting on his stool quicker than Rigo did. Salido will want to go down as the only fighter to have fought and not been beaten by Loma.
I think he should try unification. Why roll with 1 belt. Loma consistently says he doesn't care about the money. His opponents might though. Unless WBO can come up with a very good mandatory (which I doubt), I think he should definitely try unifying.
Loma already said he doubts Russel Jr wants a rematch.

Re: Lomachenko Next fight?
Either Berchelt or Linares
Re: Lomachenko Next fight?
Everyone has their price. After Salido's loss on Saturday he has no stock left - the W he has over Loma is his last meal ticket. It would be a gross mismatch though, I don't really have any desire to see that fight get made.Ruthless-RKO wrote: ↑11 Dec 2017, 14:15 As much as I would like to see him avenge the Salido fight, I doubt any money will tempt Salido.

You have to take it with a grain of salt when a guy does this after a loss like that, but Salido said he's finished Boxing after the Roman fight.Ricky_ wrote: ↑11 Dec 2017, 14:19Everyone has their price.

A lot of guys say things like that in the heat of the moment, and change their minds later, but you never can tell for sure.

Re: Lomachenko Next fight?
His only wins since the Loma fight Terdsak Jandaeng and Aristides Perez..
He went about 20 months without a win.

I know. Like i said the idea of what would amount to nothing more than gruesome vengance beating doesn't appeal to me.Ruthless-RKO wrote: ↑11 Dec 2017, 14:30His only wins since the Loma fight Terdsak Jandaeng and Aristides Perez..

Re: Lomachenko Next fight?
Salido is certainly a waste of time..Loma should unify the titles..

Garcia won't fight Loma at 135. He is now a 140-pounder and won't risk his ass kicked at a lower weight.

I saw a youtube video were the two met I think it was in August 2017, Garcia looked eager to fight Loma, I think now its all about negotiating the $$$$.boxing_rocks wrote: ↑11 Dec 2017, 17:47 Garcia won't fight Loma at 135. He is now a 140-pounder and won't risk his ass kicked at a lower weight.
Re: Lomachenko Next fight?
Berchelt is his biggest threat, even bigger than Linares.

No, I meant as a more feasible opponent. I honestly don't think Mikey is moving back down to 135 lbs., unless the Figueroa fight is at 135, is it?

Linares could be a tough fight for Loma or Garcia...
