    I’ve been so undecided on this myself,sometimes I think it’s a close fight with Linares wining rounds and then I think how he fared against Kevin Mitchell where he was put down by a guy a 100 times less skilled than Lomo.

    If he stays at LW and doesn't fight then it's a duck, but if he leaves the division it isn't.

    I’m not sure if either man wants it but if Loma gets that WBC diamond belt and becomes the WBC mandatory he can force a title shot and so can Mikey.

    Loma is confident in himself, I honestly don’t know who would win it’s a very competitive fight and it’s the type of win that can push them into the p4p top spot.

    Linares is a very hot-cold fighter, sometimes he looks extremely good and effortlessly outboxes his man, other times he struggles against opposition he should dominate.

    He reminds of Khan, excellent offensive skills, quick hands and feet but vulnerable. I think Linares has been beating up on fighters who he knows he is better than and that will not have prepared him for a Loma and definitely not a Mikey.

    The only reason why Linares has a chance against Loma for me is his size advantage, if he can push Loma back it will make this fight very interesting.

    Tell Loma to rematch Salido. Don’t tell me that “if Mikey doesn’t do this or that”. Rematch Salido!

    I don’t wanna see it, anymore I would rather Salido keep his victory. This version of Salido would get smashed by Loma, that victory is the best win on Salido’s career.

    I don't care about Salido anymore (come on, he's like 40 years old and even lost to Roman). What I really want to see is Lomachenko vs. some good aggressive pressure puncher. I'm sure such fighters should exist at the lightweight.

    Yeah there was at super feather and that was Berchelt, I actually think his style would case Loma trouble. I’m fed up of Loma jumping divisions with out unifying I wanna see him try and clean out LW. Linares is a start then get Beltran and Easter if he can get past Commey.

    No offense but if he doesn’t erase that loss then I can’t compare him to atg’s who have a rough and tough style. Id pick Loma to lose every time.

    I agree he should aim to beat Salido like Lewis beat Rahman or Ali beat Spinks etc etc but both those guys did it in immediate rematches it’s not gunna have the same sparkle to it that it would have had if he didn’t wait for Salido to have with Martinez and Vargas and get knocked out by Roman.
