    Salido doesn't need Lomachenko, he's already beaten him.

    He should face Vargas next. Then defend against Martinez.

    This fight needs to happens, and team Loma needs to pay Salido handsomely, at least 40% to make it happen. Salido has the win over him, and has had a near hof career, and even if he's been sliding a bit lately deserves a decent purse. We as hardcores love Loma, but till he starts filling arenas and beating more high profile opponents he has to compromise financially a bit to make the best fights out there.

    If Loma really wants the rematch he'll pay Siri whatever he needs.

    Salido has no belt and hasn't gotten a win in his last 3 fights.
    Basically he needs to know his place and shut up.

    His place is fine. He doesn't need the lma fight, he's already fought and beaten him.

    He can rematch Vargas and get a belt that way.

    Neither does loma need him.
    He's riding off some dubious win that happened 2 years ago.
    He's in no position to dictate terms and klimas told his team just that :yep

    If Loma doesn't need the rematch he should stop chasing it.

    As Luf said, Loma is the one who's chasing the fight. Salido is the bigger draw and has the victory, he's in every position to dictate terms.

    If I was Salido, I'd demand nothing less than 65% of the purse. Loma may be one of the TBE's but Martinez-Loma couldn't even sell out a 6000 stadium on Puerto Rican day. Just like the other great fighters, he has to pay his dues and earn big money.

    Can definitely see Loma taking the short straw here, even if his management don't want it.

    He's made his motivation clear with his actions.
