I love it. The haters were expecting Lomachenko to be devastated and his career over if he didn't get the W, instead he was nonchalant about the decision and his career continues in exactly the same trajectory that was planned if he won. Bring on GRJ for the belt Lomachenko was robbed of, line up Rigo after that :bbb
The best part of it for me is all the people saying that Lomachenko should have refused to fight after Salido missed weight and Lomachenko should've complained to the referee about Salido's fouls are probably the same people who would've blasted Lomachenko for being a "crybaby". I guess it's something that all the "0" worshipers will never understand.
I think Loma's next 5 fights should be: 1) Gary Russell Jr for vacant WBO World title - June 2014. 2) Evgeny Gradovich for WBO/IBF World titles - September 2014. 3) Jhonny Gonzalez for WBC/WBO/IBF World titles - December 2014. 4) Donaire/Vetyeka winner for WBC/WBA/WBO/IBF World titles - March 2015. 5) Salido rematch for a Super Featherweight World title - July 2015.
so he loses but gets an immediate second chance... bs, what a joke, almost as bad as making up bs titles for cheating pac****
Very good, but I'd like to see the Rigo superfight in July 2015 instead (or sooner if possible). After that it would be sweet redemption if Salido manages to win a belt at 130 and Lomachenko moves up to right the wrong after he's cleared out 126.
I think he should just skip over 3-5, jump right up to SMW and challenge Andre Ward. Then jumpt to LHHW and knock off Jean Pascal. Pascal's style is tailor made for him. :yep
He lost a split decision to a guy who didn't make weight, in a fight where he was constantly fouled. It would be BS if he didn't get an immediate second chance. The BS is that GRJ is walking into a vacant title shot despite never fighting anyone. I like it because Lomachenko will destroy him and win the title but GRJ hasn't earned a thing.
I don't really care who's at the other end of that belt as long as Mr. Russell is on one end. It's his time to shine and he's about to wreck some ****. Loma has seen the dirty side, now he's about to see flash and class bringing thunder and lighting to that ass.:yep
Hopefully he has learned how to take care of his hands. Mayweather used to have that same problem and maybe GRJ talked to him and received some good information on how to take care of his. At any rate, that would be the only obstacle in his way from dropping a royal flush on little Loma.
