Lomanchenko V Salido - WBO Featherweight title - Alamodome - Texas - 1/3/2014

a better ref, no weight advantage and loma wins that fight. he is a decent fighter, needs to learn to complain to ref, go down and hold ya nuts when u hit low. too many rookie mitakes

Cole not only missed a few dozen low blows..... he also stood by while Loma almost pulled his own arms out of their shoulder sockets trying to extract himself from Salido's death grip.

Lawrence Cole is the worst big fight referee in the US

Compare Mikey Garcia's performance against Salido and the fight tonight. Lomachenko's hands and feet weren't nearly as fast as Garcia's were against the same guy. Loma's supposedly special one of a kind attributes aren't that special after all.

Everytime I see Chavez jr it makes me go watch Chavez sr. vs Rosario or Haugen just to remind me what the name really means

It does not sit right. The guy blows weight and punches at least 20 times to the junk and in a sense is rewarded and will be in the future. Something is wrong with that.

Did Chavez at least make weight this time.

What weight did Loma fight at last time out? He boiled down to feather for this fight. Size difference was irrlelevant.

Cole did not 'win' that for Salido. He is a shit ref, but Loma lost more than a few rounds on his own. Someone make a list of HBO all stars who have blown weight..start with Canelo, Garcia, Broner, Mayweather, Chavez....

Size difference not irrelevant in this fight.

do we have a Chavez Vera thread

I never said Cole won it for him. I said the entire ordeal leaves a bad taste. A bad taste because Salido will most likely get a title shot because of it and Loma will be burned at the stake like he is already.

How does he continue to get work? Its insane.

Cole gets the big fights because he's dad works for the Texas Athletic Commission so they give his son the bigger fights which is bullshit.

4-1 Chavez
