    Wonder what the media's going to say when a Russian comes over here, beats down and stops the immigration sob story they've been pushing so hard, I wonder if they'll claim there's some kind of Trump-Russian collusion? This one I doubt they'll have the audacity to pull the PED card.:lol:

    ****, it's going to be a really ugly fight.
    Beltran should take it but he looks to be slowing down.

    Well, Beltran almost lost to Paulus Moses in his last fight and Andreev can't be too bad (I admit I have no idea who he is) – his record looks ok and he is a mandatory (not just a random cherry-picked guy), so this fight could go either way, actually. The point is Lomachenko should fight the winner when he comes back. The situation here might be a little bit similar to the Pacquiao/Horn/Crawford one.

    Some interesting points from an interview with Bob Arum (http://www.boxingtalk.com/pag/article.php?aid=35332):
    ...
    GL: Will WBO lightweight champion Rey Beltran still fight on ESPN August 25th?
    BA: "Yes. He has a mandatory (Roman Andreev) due and we tried to get the guy to step aside, but he didn't want to so there's going to be a purse bid in Puerto Rico (today) and we're going to do that fight in August after we win the purse bid."

    GL: Is the plan for Lomachenko to unify against the winner of that fight even if it's not Beltran?
    BA: "Absolutely."

    Hopefully we see Lomachenko fight the winner at the end of the year.

    Andreev had real chances to beat Beltran...
