    Default WBO to give Lomachenko another shot at the title..and Russell becomes mandatory

    From what I know, russell isnt contracted with gbp although he's fought on their cards so it's doable..

    Who would win?

    not sure if putting loma in another high profile fight right away is smart! too risky imo

    Maybe they didn't like the job the referee did either. Loma this time.

    As a huge fan of Russell I'm starting to think there is something hiding in the closet like a very suspect chin. He has been in the mandatory spot twice and refused. Its one of the reasons Loma got his shot albeit suspect. Now the belt is vacant so Russell is not a mandatory. By Wbo rules the two highest ranked fighters available will now fight for the vacant title. I'm pretty sure they must be in the top 5 or the title remains vacant. So in theory its Russell vs somebody but Loma is highly unlikely.

    dont give russell a shot until he has beaten at least a C level fighter.

    i think that loma should have 2 more fights this year against solid opponents and then fight for the title again in 2015.

    Too risky to give Loma another shot.

    People forget about thing that differ from the amateurs, things like rough housing for example, not a great deal of that in the amateur ranks.

    Putting him in with experienced pros is an idiot move, he deserved his loss.

    Russell is a damn pussy, he could have already been a champ and we could be enjoying his reign but instead we are still waiting.
    You say tomato,
    ‘n I say …… it correctly.

    If hes already blaming refs for a 1-1 record he might as well settle on another gold medal..

    the future has caught up to Loma before fans learned how to pronounce his name. He needs a reset button, a big crossroad really. Arum kind of hoodwinked him with this microwave 'every kid gets a star' think if you ask me. Loma is skilled but he needs to look looong term or be a trivia question. Fuck Bob.

    I still think the ref should be investigated and a no-contest given. The ref intentionally let the low blows reign. Poor job.

    But, Loma should just wait it up for another 10 fights or so. jmo...

    If Lomachenko fights for a title again n loses another split decision then he will be the best 1-2 fighter in history.

    Think about it lol

    I just don't get this mindset or rabid microwave path. All this to "make history" by obtaining some worthless piece of junk fans are putting less and less stock in. rightfully so. The last two 'champions' left it on the scale. Its just, assbackwards. Its obvious to anyone with a open mind and clear vision...Loma has a good foundation to build, but all this Arum circus BS will shorten his bigger picture. He needs to iron out his amatuer tendencies.

    There is zero wrong with a fighter progressing naturally and building.

    This is very funny. Loma fights Salido in his second professional fight. Russell Jr. has been fighting unranked guys forever. It's comical.

    I said last week that fighting Salido was a win win situation for Lomanchenko, he's been up against one of the dirtiest fighters I've seen in years and one whos experienced and used every trick in the book.

    He will have watched the fight back over and over aalready and can only learn from it.

    Im sure he wont let himself be bullied like that again (not if he values his nutsack) and lets not forget that Salido had a Massive physical advantage with that extra weight.

    Lomanchenko grew in confidence in that fight and nearly ended it late on

    Great little fighter who seems to have a decent chin to match.

    Im a big fan
