would be dumb not to favor salido.......what happens if it gets into the 9,10, 11th round ....deep waters will get you drowned
Vasyl Lomachenko has to be the most overrated fighter i've had the misfortune of watching. he beats ramirez (ok ramirez is a solid fighter for a pro debut) but its not like he looked invincible to the point of his fans claiming he'll be a GOAT. i think salido will chew him up and spit him out in 5 rounds, too much too soon.
Salido is a beastly difficult fight. I'm not sure who to pick but if he's a +400 dog I'm betting a lot on Salido.
Lomachenko if too fast for Salido, but I think he needs to get a few more fights under his belt, although he may very well beat Salido...........
Are you ******ed? His post specifically said Jan 25th. Which would be on a saturday. I'm not sure how or why you changed the date in your response to the 23rd. Vasyl UD 12 Salido 118-110
lets see. A hard hitting world champ vs a 2nd pro debut...I'd favor salido at this point -only seen 4 rds of Lomachenko - but it would be telling..
They would not risk Lomanchenko if they didn't think he could win. A bit like Rigo vs Donaire. Many people, including myself, thought Donaire's power would be too much. But if it never lands, it doesn't matter if he hits as hard as a heavyweight. Lomanchenko should win a wide decision in this one, but I hope he has good stamina, because if it gets late in the fight and Salido is coming home strong while Lomanchenko is gassing, this could be a career ending fight. With that much amateur experience I'd assume his stamina is good. But this is the pros, where the power of body shots takes it out of a fighter in a way that is different from the amateurs. In addition, they fight 12 rounds.
