Stark Jr. stepped up his competition and lost then retired.


Russell was def more talented, but never stepped up his and is still undefeated.
Russell can't step it up if nobody will fight him...he's been begging for the top guys.
Jhonny Gonzalez and others wanted no parts.

Arum has really lost his touch..

Putting Lomenchenko in with Russell is the worst move there is to make..

Bob must have taken a life insurance policy out on Lomo...somebody should check up on that.
Russell was offered a fight with DeLeon. Which he refused. And he was offered a chanced to go to Mexico to fight Gonzalez. Which he never responded too.

Russell has been matched extremely soft to hide a flaw he has. The Lomenchenko fight was almost forced on them due to the title being vacant. If not they wouldn't be fighting him. It's hilarious hearing Russell talk up his pro experience over Lomenchenko like if it actually matters. Lomenchenko has only 2 fights. And he's already fought for a world title. Faced a bigger fighter. Faced adversity. And he's gone 12 rounds. He's already more experienced than Russell
Jhonny Gonzales was offered a fight with Russell but refused.
On this side of the border

25 pro fights is more experience than 2 pro fights...

Russell has more PRO experience than Lomenchenko.

I can't wait to hear your excuses when Russell mercy kills this guy
After beating Mares, Gonzalez said he was making his first defense in Mexico. Didn't matter the opponent. Instead of accepting, Russell made a bogus counter offer that he knew was gonna get rejected. It was pretty hilarious considering Russell has no say. Gonzalez is the champion and only about 17 people even know who Russell is.

2 fights is all it took for Lomenchenko to surpass the level of competition Russell has faced
