    I never said Juanma is better than Loma.

    What part of "highly regarded at the time" do you not understand?

    No difference for Loma. He still has to win to gain the championship.
    Only difference is if that extra 2 pounds will give Saildo a significant weight advantage.
    I understand that Saildo didn't even try to make weight and gave up the title willingly. Is this a strategy?

    Wait, are they sure about this?

    I just read Chavez Jr actually made weight and Salido didn't. Did they check the scale? :blood

    War Salido, He is coming for the KO and hasn't bothered to even attempt a second weigh in. And now if he loses he has the weight as an excuse and says he is moving up as he can;t make weight anymore. Win Win for WarSalido now. Man is a genius.

    I'll be happy if Salido wins, very happy indeed. going to be tough though. In all seriousness he should have made the weight but it could be a game plan to have more strength and punch resistance but yes its unprofessional like when Broner did it.

    As i said earlier Salido now has an excuse if he gets baldy beaten, which is a bit lame really. Took the shine of the fight a bit for me.

    I remember when Salido was banging on about how it was so disrespectful that Lomachenko is getting a title fight so soon.

    What worries me is Lawrence Cole is the ref, and one of the judges is Jack Reiss.

    I hope Salido smashes this dude and this whole gimmick blows up in Arum's face.

    Why? Loma winning in impressive fashion would be great for boxing. It would generate mainstream interest to an extent, and maybe / eventually / ultimately more interest for boxing gyms and new amateurs.

    I don't like Arum for starters and a devastating loss would make the white supremacists Farmboxer and Freedom cry themselves to sleep.
