So hes saying he was drained from using the sauna too much in week leading up to fight. Took bad advice from a strength and cond coach whom they just hired. Idk men, i thought he just ran into a fighter with more skills and experience. He shoukd beat gonzales thou.
Lomachenko loses a razor thin decision to a guy waaay overweight, who hit him about 100 times below the belt, AND loma had him ready to go in the last round but the ref inexplicably broke up the action for no apparent reason allowing Salido to recover. And yet still he offered zero excuses and said he'll get them next time GRj get dominated, completely outclassed by the better boxer, and has used every excuses in the book, including the 'I went to a sauna AFTER a the weigh in' excuse
Sauna excuse is one of the most pathetic and delusional I heard. He brought high punch volume into the ring and looked pretty fast. If any adequate boxing fan watches the fight, it's now way he says that Russel lost the fight due to his poor physical condition, since he went the full distance. The most interesting part is that Russel is seem to believe the **** he's saying. Does it fall into his mind that he slowed down on the second half of the fight due to constant power body punches he was taking all over again. No, he says that's because of sauna.

the real reason was the vicious bodyshots he took from Loma, which visibly slowed him down with each passing round
Loma beats GRJ ten time out of ten. Style-wise, the way to beat a guy with great handspeed but lacking footspeed is to fight him from the outside and keeping distance, pot-shotting him. That's how Floyd beat Mosley. GRJ is a great fighter. He's just sick of hearing people talk about the one loss he has.
Garbage excuse. Loma is just on another level. With that said the Russell who fought Loma would have given anyone at that weight hell that night he was very good Loma was just awesome.
Mr. Russell has nothing to be ashamed of and has a bright future. Denial of the event doesn't outweigh the deed being caught on tape, though.
