Comments Thread For: Salido Leans Away From Lomachenko, Moves in New Direction

[rogdogx]

Salido wants to have his way with the finances since he won the first fight. There are other lucrative options there to be had for Salido in the mean time since he does have a very attractive style. Hopefully they can make the rematch eventually but you can't really lose however you match these guys up. This division is loaded!

Salido knows Loma would mop the floor with him this time around. That's why he ducked

I didn't expect this, I thought Salido was a warrior who'd duck nobody...guess that's not the case anymore

no more Warlando, from now on it's Ducklando Salido

I'll probably PM you because I don't know if it's 100% true and I don't just want to leave false information out like that. Especially something like this.

Okay, I'd appreciate that

Yeah. You are the second person that has pointed that out to me. So essentially, you don't think he was in his prime the first time they fought?

No, not really. Still has his ring savvy and enough of his physical skill and reflexes to beat him the first time around, but he's been on a steady decline for a few years now. His peak was around the Lopez fights and since those fights he's started slowing down in general.

He wasn't shot by any means, hell he beat Loma who went on to whip Russell etc. He was still one of the best at 126 but he had certainly declined from his best years previous.
