Roy Jones Jr. feels he is the #1 fighter pound for pound in the world.

His "loss" was an unfortunate incident where the referee pretty much allowed Salido to hit him low, trap his arms, hit him behind the head over and over, etc.

In his interviews, he shows nothing but respect for his opponents.

Can he beat Rigo?

Loma is the real deal. He had close to 400 amateur bouts and won gold medals in two consecutive Olympics in two separate weight classes. I think he beats Rigo, but it will be a fight that goes the distance, with Loma chasing him and cutting him off for a better part of the fight. If he rematches Salido I think he will win by TKO. The only fighter I see having a chance to beat him is Walters, but he's more interested in pricing himself out of competitive fights lately so I wouldn't hold my breath.

I would rank Loma number two P4p right now behind Roman Gonzalez. Two complete fighters to keep a watch on and I look forward to their future bouts.

Vasyl Lomachenko is top caliber. He is supremely talented with extraordinary footwork and handspeed. Watch his KO of Roman Martinez. Jim Lamply is a very experienced& respected commentator but Vasyl Lomachenko is so fast that when he knocks out Martinez, Lampley thinks it is one right hook when in reality it was a two punch combination. This guy is so fast you can only see both punches in slow motion replay.

Lomachenko is the man right now. His style is poetry. His footwork is reminiscent of Willie Pep' with Pacquio offense.

I agree with Roy Jones, Lomachenko is my #1 P4P fighter right now. Followed by GGG, Chocolatito, and Thurman.

Lot of guys coming out of Ukraine are just monsters.
