In only his 7th fight he has become a two weight world champion and a history maker by knocking out Rocky Martinez to win The WBO World Junior Lightweight Champion
Lomachenko put on a master class, great footwork, lighting hand speed, and quick, accurate and hard combinations.
I knew this guy would always be great. Some idiots but he lost to Salido, but they clearly don't have a clue.
Not only was it 2nd fight, Salido purposely came in over weight, put on 19lbs more overnight, landed continuous low blow, hold and other dirty tactics, but never got called up on them. And after all that the fight could have swung in Loma's favor.
He wants his chance at revenge but also wants to take on the best at 130lsb. Not many fighters in the world today that want to do that after 30 fights let alone 7.
It is a breath of fresh air to see a fighter like this, not worried about building a fight or cherry picking, and says he will be ready in 18 months.
He wants it all now, and the fear of losing doesn't bother him.

More seasoned amateurs should do this, dnt really see the point of gold medalists taking on 10 tomatoe cans before any half decent test, I guess loma does need to take this route considering how long he was in the amateurs for, he knows he won't have that 15 year career to make a name so is ripping through anyone he can

He turned pro at 25, your average boxer has a 10 year career before they are past their prime.

His natural ability is outrageous.
