    You should be more than ready for the pros after having boxed 400+ amateur bouts...

    Sadly, Salido is in the twilight of his career after having gone through so many brutal wars

    I actually think we'll see the second 'No Mas' in a row. Loma is going to box Salidos head in

    Yeah because you run into fighters that are allowed to foul you close to 100 times in one fight without ever so much as being given the harmless "keep'em up" warning in the am's :sherlock:

    You're not really comparing like with like are you?

    Canelo went pro at 15 and fought Vasquez in his 3rd fight actually.

    Loma went pro in his mid 20s after 2 Olympics and a season of WSB.

    The guy I was talking to is a big Canelo fanboy, that's the only reason I used Canelo, it makes no difference, replace him with Rigo, AJ, Usyk, Spence, Bute, Mayweather, Ward, Khytrov, GGG, the fact remains, no one has fought someone of Salido's caliber in a 12 round match in their second fight, and had to deal with a dirty biased ref on top of that, and came out of that match almost beating the guy and closing better in your first 12 round match against an opponent most top fighters wilt against late than most 5 year pros could.

    While I'm at it I will add this in, Canelo's stamina in far less grueling matches today is pathetic compared to Loma's in his first 12 rounder.:lol:

    Amateurs are more multifaceted than what you are saying - more specifically, Lomachenko's game is more multifaceted than that. His competitive advantage is not from his speed, angles etc. but his ability to set and enact his game over the number of rounds given to him. 3/5 rounders, stretching it to 12 rounds is a big difference for a fighter like Lomachenko. Pacing strategy will be off. We saw him make a rookie misunderstanding at the Loma-Salido fight, he wasn't punching much at all. He looked more like Besputin than his current self.
    This in short, is a quasi-Loma.


    Lomachenko was older when he turned pro, but he was the master of a completely different construct, a construct where you point score differently, you have a different pacing strategy over a different number of rounds, different rules, you use attack very differently because it's faster. It's a construct that many who turn out to be awful pros, are masters at. It's a different branch.


    Any Gold Medalist (maybe multiple Gold medalist) in history who's ultimate stylistic threat is Salido/Maidana type, they won't beat Salido in their second pro fight.

    Mayweather with all of his pro experience, just after his sublime performance (his top 3 performance ever) against Canelo, drew IMO with Maidana. Salido is better than Maidana, what is a 1-0 pro really supposed to do to him, especially given Salido is an even bigger crook than Maidana can dream of being? Yet I had Vasyl winning by 1 round (although Salido 116-112 is even a good score IMO).

    The Vasyl that fought Salido and Ramirez (debut) wasn't even a 'great' fighter by any means, I thought he looked God awful as he hadn't adapted his 3 and 5 round strategies to prospective 12 rounders and was stressy about pacing. If you're in doubt, compare Jose Ramirez debut with Koasicha, Martinez etc.


    WSB is no different to current AIBA's today, but with just two extra rounds. The rules are completely amateur based, moderated by the referee in an amateur manner, judged by the judges used in amateurs, padded gloves that are harder to inflict damage with that don't even allow for a clench of a fist to the extent of the pro glove, the fighters all have active amateur careers etc.

    The pro game is a different beast. Lomo shouldn't have rushed his pro development like that to take an L to a fighter he should have never lost to. If he beats Salido then that would just proves what a silly mistake he made.
