    Yeah this isn't humiliating, this is a man standing up for himself in a labor dispute. The promoter should be humiliated.

    That was an embarrassment to boxing all the way around from salido missing weight to the ref not dqing him for all his fouls and loma just taking all the fouls. A guy hits you low you hit him back low. A guy butts you you butt back. An eye for an eye. I blame his coach. I thought that was common knowledge for boxers.

    See how humiliating it is? Ppl. still fuming. :lol:

    Salido did everything by the professional book, bending rules so far Lomachenko (who could've pulled out on Friday, didn't) and the ref allowed (could've handled the low blows better, didn't). In the end, scorecards reflected the better, legal, counting professional boxing job of Salido cutting down Loma, taking away his speed and distance, suffocating him with relentless style, introducing situations overconfident Godchenko never been in and actually landing the more telling, legal blows.

    Hence my pick of Salido by decision: I saw the terrible choice of opponent and the result coming. But remember: Loma at that point had 400 fights, 7 pro included (WSB counts as such), and was older than Teofimo, Haney or Garcia who are - guess what - 21 and getting crap for lack of opposition. When in reality, Richard Commey was a better opponent for a younger, far less experience Fimo than over the hill Salido was post-Garcia for Lomo, check the polls and odds as proof.

    THAT 12-loss veteran beating up THAT heavily favored fighter of legendary reputation was a masterpiece of humiliation, humbling little Loma who thought he just needs to show up for coronation. Not so fast, little hopper.

    Amir Khan vs Breidis Prescott.

    Can still remember the post-fight interview. Khan talking about how he will be a world champion in the next week or something. Frank Warren looking like he had been sold a Ferrari from a looky looky man. Good price, good price, yeah.

    Might not seem so humiliating in hindsight now that we have seen Khan do the funky dance more than once. I know it was at the time.

    I don't think it was embarrassing for Lomachenko. I think it was embarrassing for boxing to see someone break the rules like that and be celebrated for it. It showed people to be fans or haters of fighters rather than fans of the sport.

    I hate seeing things like that even when it happens to fighters I dislike.

    A juiced to high heaven Roy getting sparked out cold on his own soil by an innocuous love tap from a feathfisted journeman plodder Glen Johnson who is clearly at least 30 years older than his listed age.
