    Walters couldn't find his testicles in time so this is happening. At 130, it will be good for Lomachenko to beat the guy who beat Salido. After Lomachenko wins that sets up a potential rematch with Salido to finish that business.

    Okay fight, to be honest I'm not entirely sure Rocky couldn't take out Walters, he might actually be a better opponent.

    Does Rocky get the $500,000? If so he probably wants to send Walters a thank you card.

    Roman Martinez is a good fighter, he's pretty big. But I don't think he pressures roughly to be able to put Loma in very deep waters. I expect Roman to put on a good fight though.

    I really like this fight, I think that after this, Loma might take on Salido and/or Vargas. Then an Uchiyama fight.

    I'm very grateful that 130lb division are full of monsters who actually want to fight, rather than Walters.

    Rocky ducked Berchelt to fight Loma in a save loss? Stupid.

    Looks like the whole cold war TR/GP-Haymon thing is subsiding which is good for the sport.

    Martinez is a Haymon fighter.

    Things are looking up

    The rest of the division is breathing a sigh of relief that avoiding him worked.

    :deal... Although I do think LSC would fight him after he whoops on Frampton.

    He was the number 1 FW by virtue of beating GRJ but I'd have liked him to unify before moving up.
