    he has all the tools to beat Siri and should have done so with ease. However, he needs to take his time to become acclimatized to pro ranks. there have been countless blue chippers who have come along and not reached the lofty projections that he, his team and his fans have set out. I am sure he will do great but proclaiming that he is the GOAT before he sets one foot in a pro ring only sets him up for failure and backlash from other fans.

    No it wouldn't, a better a win maybe but not considering the inexperience. Both of these two are some of the best p4p fighters. After a year or so once Lomachenko has adjusted to 12 rounds we will see him doing great as well.

    Yes it would, beating top 5 P4P in 12th fight is better than beating Salido who never ever was close to being top 5 p4p, Donaire is far more skilled than Salido, and i wrotte especially the way Rigo schooled him not just outpointed him but SCHOOLED!
    I agree on other part, he will be better than he is now no doubt, but his team is stupid to underestimate good fighter like Salido and that cost them, no one to blame for fighting for the title to soon.
