“Now I see that there is nobody at 126 that is an attractive opponent for myself, so I am thinking maybe I should move up to join the 130-pounders,” stated Salido, who hails from Ciudad Obregon, Sonora, Mexico. “I would love to fight [Adrien] Broner at 130, but with one condition. After the fight, after I knock out Broner, I want his father to brush my own hair.” Salido’s comment was a definite dig at the Cincinnati, Ohio native, the present holder of the WBO junior featherweight championship, as Broner caused a bit of a stir after his knockout over Vicente Martin Rodriguez last November when he asked for father Thomas to brush his hair amidst his post-fight interview with HBO analyst Max Kellerman so that he looked good enough for the millions watching. Broner is one of the most animated and exuberant fighters in the sport yet Salido seems to have a real disdain towards the 22-year old’s confident ways. “He’s always cocky because he never really fought anybody,” Salido said. “He fought finished fighters or nobodies and he’s so arrogant that I want to shut his mouth. The only thing I’m thinking of now is Broner. He has a big mouth and he likes to dance but I want to break his jaw. I will do exactly the same thing to him that I did to Lopez.” Whether you love Broner or loathe him, you can’t deny that he is a special kind of talent inside of the ring. But such a fact seems to be easily dismissed by Salido, who feels that finding a way to make Broner fight a good ol’ fashioned dog fight is the remedy for taking away his undefeated record. “It’s simple. Nobody puts pressure on him and nobody confronts him and fights him,” Salido stated. “I plan to do that. I have the qualifications and I am strong enough to stand up and fight toe to toe. I’m looking forward to that fight.” Expect more from Salido in the coming days… Taken from the General:yep in case some of you don't venture their WAR Salido:freddy :freddy :freddy
Funny guy. Props to Salido for pursuing a fight, I can see him getting knocked out, definitely beaten but he'll put up a good effort for sho.
What an odd thing to say when you haven't got a patch of hair on your head! I think Broner would win this if I'm honest, would like to see Salido get another big fight though and I could see it being entertaining enough to watch. Would certainly be 2000% better than bloody Gary Sykes
I would love to see this fight. I think Salido is so relentless and hardened that he would walk through Broner. I even think a stoppage would be on the cards.
They said that Salido had zero chance Vs. Lopez..........................Salido would probably stop Broner late.............
