Is Vasyl Lomachenko that good or just plain crazy?

First topic message reminder :

I have just seen who Vasyl Lomachenko will be fighting on his pro debut and it makes for some interesting reading:

His opponent Jose Ramirez has a record of W25 (KO 15) L3 (KO 0)

If Vasyl Lomachenko wins his fight, then he is talking about taking on the winner of Orlando Salido vs Orlando Cruz.

In my opinion that is insane and incredibly risky. The pro debut is going to be hard enough, but then getting a world title in the next fight and having the likes of Donaire in your sights!

If he pulls it off, it will probably be one of the most incredible rises in boxing history!

Mental!! He is fight for a world title next. Him and Salido did a head to head at the post fight presser. Its on YouTube, Ellie Sechbach video.

A world title fight in his 2nd pro fight. Fair play to him and Salido is no mug

Seen both before, live. Am just saying he didn't appear to snap/roll through the punch which led me to the original thought I posted.

I saw a clear punch right up the middle and you saw him throw it and see Ramirez lift up from the power, pause and then collapse. Great body shot and second knock down after landing to the body.

I think fighting Salido is a massive mistake, he is a battle hardened pro.

Even if he beats Salido who is shop worn, he has to stay at that level then and I don't think he is ready just yet.

I cant believe i am saying this about a bloke with one fight under his belt but i think he stops Salido is 5 rounds, he is on a different level.
