Gary Russell is now Salido's mandatory and has to fight within 180 days

Russell-Lomachenko would be an incredible wild card fight come to think Don't know what Russell is doing exactly, but it doesn't seem likely he'd get this fight instead of the Ukranian after sharing that card etc.

You know my friend on paper I would agree with you. I just think Salido kind of takes him to school. I dont mean out boxing him or matching him talent wise but out "knowing" him. He knows every trick and slant in the book. Salido would probably train for this more then anytime in his life just out of pride. How dare they use me as an entrance exam and launch for their next superstar after only one fight. I'd be inclined to maybe take Salido in what some would call an upset. I wouldn't call it that.

Salido-Russell ain't gonna happen. Russell next opponent is the very dangerous TBA

That dude won't fight Russell. Anytime you see TBA listed to fight someone he always gets replaced by another opponent. The dude is the biggest ducker in boxing.
