Lomachenko beats 99.9% of fighters p4p wise? I guess Salido is part of that 0.1%. Having Lomachenko p4p#1 is laughable.
did you actually see that fight? low blows all night that went unpunished, salido did not even come close to making weight, and almost got stopped late in the fight, and still after all that scraped a SD victory ?. it was a big learning experience for how the pros do it but im not sure how you could possibly hold that over lomas career like it was a legit loss
My dream fight is Hi-Tek vs. the Sniper Of course its highly unlikely I just feel the match up with ignite a firestorm in the ring.
I think you have to respect the decision, I had Kovalev winning but the decision is final, it isn't going to be changed and so you have suck it up and give Ward the benefit and put him just above Kovalev. Mr Rumsfeld summed it up perfectly, 1A Ward 1B Kovalev, there is very little between them.
I would say Kovalev. That fight elevated him more than it did Ward, regardless of the (dubious) decision. Kovalev can box and slug, pressure and play patient. His chin also seems solid. He's shown himself to be very well rounded. I think the fight told us more about Kovalev than Ward, and coupled with the dominant title defences, and the BHop shutout - he's more than proven his worth.
I consider it a tie for first with a rematch needed to settle it. They really need to bring 15 round championship bouts back. At least give the boxers the option.
