Will the people who discredit the Klitschkos do the same to Lomachenko?

    It was a 147 man against a 135 pound man, the bigger man was permitted to low blow and otherwise foul by the despicable ref Lawrence Cole, and the ref saved Salido from being stopped in the 12th.

    Lomachenko shouldn't have agreed to take the fight in Texas with shady officials like Cole. Salido should have been deducted a point or two for low blows.

    I scored it a draw 114-114. The two 115-113 scores were reasonable, but the shady Jack Reiss had it 116-112. I knew he'd score it against Lomachenko.

    116-114 was a perfectly reasonable scorecard.

    How did I know you'd say something like this? Laurence Cole was terrible. I will give you that. Salido fouled way too much, Lomachenko held way too much. ok fine, besides that Salido was getting the better of Vasyl for 3/4 of the fight. Lomachenko came on strong when the 33 year old shop worn Salido got tired. What was Vasyl's excuse for the previous rounds when he was being pummeled and bullied and looked totally out of his element because his amateur poke and peck style wasn't working? 9 rounds to 3 for Salido all day every day. You probably believe the Froch-Ward fight was really a 115-113 fight too.

    The facts are for all of the endless hype about this guy, he looked TERRIBLE!!!
    This is the guy who would beat Rigo? LOL...

    Man, I ain't got nothing against Loma but the mere fact that him losing hurts MacKenzie's feelings kinda makes Salido's win even sweeter.

    I think Salido should thank Laurence Cole for helping him out. Lomachenko took so very many low blows on the legs, hips, balls, etc., yet Cole did nothing. Lomachenko hurt Salido in the 12th, had him in trouble, he will be a much better fighter after this. If he had had a few pro fights, with a pro trainer he would have knocked Salido out. Lomachenko did not get hit much on the chin, took almost all the punches as low blows. It was a split decision. When I found out that Cole was the referee, I knew it could be bad.
