Strong rumors this is happening arum met with team loma yesterday and they all seem interested in the fight with gamboa, gamboa is also keen either this or salido, but lomachenko is more interested in this apparently
There is no indication that Loma is interested in the Gamboa fight more than the Salido fight, but it looks like Loma vs Salido is being negotiated for March. Gamboa can get the tune ups he needs. It looks like it could be Salido in March, Flanagan in June, Gamboa in November. I rate Gamboa highly. The Crawford fight was silly because the size difference was too much and Gamboa didn't look that impressive at LW, but at SFW he would be a beast.
Yes there is Bob Arum "I know this kid. He’s gonna wanna fight Salido for a rematch. And I think we’ll be able to do that.” Lomachenko “Now probably I need to think about about Salido. Because Salido was telling people that he wanna do it, then he doesn’t wanna do it. So I can think about that.” “First of all, I wanna fight somebody who has a title, a champion. Probably Vargas, the WBC champion. Maybe the IBF or WBA. Somebody who is a champion.” “That’s the first thing we’re talking about,” Arum said regarding a Lomachenko-Salido rematch. “Also, there’s a possibility of him fighting Gamboa. That would be an interesting fight. Those are the two main possibilities. “Lomachenko was at my house [in Beverly Hills last week] and he’s intrigued by a Gamboa fight. Either fight is a good fight.”
Salido must be asking for the Sun, moon and a bunch of stars to be named later once again. In plain terms; pricing himself out.
