    Last time he fought was in November, but still no fight scheduled. I know the Rigo fight fell through because Rigo doesn't want to risk his 0. Maybe Rigo wins the fight, who the F knows for sure. But it didn't happen.

    And then Arum says Walters is a done deal and now nothing happens.

    This is sad because we have a very talented fighter down here at featherweight and everybody wants to see him fight the best guys. And you got these ducking pieces of ****.

    Arum realized that Haymon has all the other belts and fighters. They worked together once before in an incredible feather weight fight between Loma and Gary. They should just have the ****ing tourney for ****s sake like a mini super 6. Showtime would be down.

    :deal
    This is true. A loss is a loss. He was hyped too soon for a real veteran fighter.

    That's the pro game, politics.. Pick and choose. It's not a sport. Lomachenko should've stayed in the Olympic game where nobody can duck.

    Salido came in a rehydrated Welterweight, hit him in the nuts 100 times, had a corrupt referee..... yet he was still clinging on for dear life against a fighter who isn't a KO artist or the last two rounds of the fight that should have been scored a draw. Yeah that's what I call making somebody your *****.:roll:

    Yet Jose Benavidez in his 22nd fight couldn't legitimately beat Herrera.

    And it took Deontay 32 before he faced someone who wasn't half dead.

    Be for real. You liked it when Maidana was **** punching Mayweather. Now it happened to "affluenza" privileged Lomachencko fighting for a title without the sweat and hardwork it took his opponent to get, you feel it was a cheat.:patsch **** that!

    I watch that fight and feel justified at the results and that he took a loss early so those **** riders could let him be a fighter instead of boosting his fake record of achievements.

    Not really, I'm not that big a fan of Maidana, and not a fan of dirty fighters in general.

    And for the record I picked Salido to beat Lomachenko, because I thought it was too much too soon, I actually thought Salido would stop him, and the fact that Loma fought through 100 low blows and the obvious weight disadvantage and still almost managed to get the KO really impressed me. It kind of serves him right for thinking he could beat someone of Salido's caliber in his second match, but at the same time, how can someone not be impressed that he almost did.

    Don't get me wrong Loma is an excellent fighter. He is truly a complete fighter, he just lacked the experience for that fight and I blame that on Bob Arum.
    Unlike the hidden chinny flaws of Kovalev ( he looked shook at a few hits in a few fights) or the lack of defense in the inside like Golovkin, Loma can fight inside, mid-range, and from the outside, with accurate shots.

    The way he destroyed Russell still affects Gary to this day. He is not the same fighter. I just wish Haymon would open the gates and let him destroy Santa Cruz the same way.:smoke

    He had a deal with Walters, but now the guy wants more money to cover the imminent loss.

    He needs to move up to 130 lbs. is what's going on with Lomachenko. Everyone at featherweight is with Gaymon, and if he eye***** a fight with them (Selby), they just run to Gaymon Protection Services.

    No argument here, Bob is a massive ****head.

    As far as LSC goes, Frampton might beat him to it.

    Salido the cheat came in overweight, was allowed to foul with a bias referee, and was still almost KOed in the end.

    You couldn't help but take a jab at Rigo, huh? Maybe Arum jumped the gun on the Walters fight, case of "counting your chickens before they hatch"?
