    no doubt loma was more skilled at that time....he was also signifncantly bigger as was noticed by myself and the commentary as well as ringside reporters.

    an honest, unbiased assessment is that the fight was competitive. so much so, all 3 judges gave grj between 4 and 6 rounds. that's not a domination by any stretch of the imagination.

    Being quicker didn't help Russell at all. Lomachenko negated it with timing.

    Russell is good, but Lomachenko is just on another level.

    You don't even need punch stats to tell you that if you have eyes.

    So, is Russell-Mares next?

    Mares said on Twitter that he hopes he gets the winner.

    the funny thing is, the same people talking about salido beat grj because he was bigger, wanna act like it's an excuse to say loma beat grj because loma was bigger.

    "Gary Russell is smaller doe" "Gary Russell was dehydrated cutting weight doe"

    Which one is it? Russell didn't move up weight after his lame excuse of being 'dehydrated'.. dehydrated? are you ****ing kidding me? worst excuse ever.
