Should Lomachenko try and fight for a 'world' title on his pro debut?

He struggled against Bashenov. Although he won widely, he didn't look as devastatingly good as he did against Valentino. He seemed to get caught plenty downstairs and was hit more often than he usually does. Still, though, I can't complain. Bashenov is no slouch and Lomachenko dominated.
I still think he looked sharp, but he was gunning it and less patient than usual, maybe trying to erase the memories of his close one with Selmilov a few weeks back.

Still, got a lovely clean knockdown and, as always, looked a completely rounded operator.

Amateur boxing should be like this across the board, but 3 rounds. WSB should be next step, 5 rounds. That's pretty much what is happening anyway though, right?

Yeah, pretty much.
Yes he should and yes he could win, as long as he doesn't have stamina issues (and they'll know from training) I don't see the issue, he's a fucking beast and one of my favourite active boxers am or pro and I'd back him to win against any pro around his weight tomorrow no joke :deal I talked to Sam Maxwell after their bout in London and he said how good he is at everything in there.

I still think he could make feather or super feather, he should turn pro at super feather and think about a world title on his debut imo, it would be massive if he won
