    If Loma didn't somehow get Salido next, I'd love to see him unify with Pedraza. That would be an interesting fight imo.

    As good as Loma is lets not dismiss how terrible Martinez is, I dont care how many titles he's won in his career, he is a horrible all around boxer. As Floyd would say, straight up and down with no special effects.

    This...

    If he waits too long the window of relevancy can slam shut.

    My crystal ball is showing me the ESB forums in the year 2025. Some random troll of a poster is complaining that Lomachenko ducked a rematch with Salido and never avenged his only pro loss, so he's ranking him outside of his top 100.

    :smoke

    This would be the first time outside of the Vargas match that Salido's been on HBO since the Loma match.

    Would love to hange just for the pre video party:hey

    I still like this fight but feel it will shave a few years off the career of Lomo if he is not ready for the dirtiest player in the game:deal

    If he can get Salido in the ring lets do this as the back story makes for setting the table and getting casual fans involved.

    I can see Lomo making Salido miss way more and pay for any dirty shots this time.

    Lomo late TKO in the 11th or final round:bbb

    Lomachenko in his recent performance looked an echelon better than Mayweather, it was the sort of performance Roy Jones Jr used to put on.

    Salido edged out Vargas on my cards, and he's still got it. I'd rather the rematch hits now while Siri's coming off a FOTY caliber performance than have it sit on the backburner too long. Right now, it still means alot.

    :good It was like taking the precision and generalship of old Floyd and putting it into the mindset and physical ability of the younger, lower weight version. Scary stuff.

    Don't mention Loma with Floyd or Roy Jones, there are those who won't like that

    Looking better doesn't in itself mean being better on an ultimate, absolute term. Loma hasn't proven that...YET :hey

    I thought I was watching prime Roy Jones in there.
