    Difference is he's been fighting a pro style against amateurs and was better than everybody after he won his first Olympics. And because Lomachenko knows how good he is, is exactly why his confidence could be shattered if he took a bad loss early in his career.

    Because rigondeaux is top 5 p4p, one of the most skilled boxers in the world if not the most, has just schooled donaire and is a world champion. Someone beats him in their third fight then yeah I'd say that's one of the best wins ever.

    If Rigo were to win this fight, Arum would probably throw him in with Cotto afterwards.

    watched some loma fights on youtube today. he has the full package. prob gets hit more than mayweather but punch output is far greater than mayweather's.

    Lomachenko lost his fight with the Cuban Lazaro Alvarez in the last Olympics ( IMO ) and Alvarez isn't half the boxer Rigo is . Rigondeaux by schooling plus KO . Peace .

    this. I have got to see him in the pro ring first before sayhng anything too serious. He looked amazing at ams thou. What i saw him at wsb he looked pretty exhausted after six rounders. Sure he will slow down his workrate in n pro game when fighting ten and 12 round fights.

    All KO wins?, i don't think he even got 1 KO in the WSB fights did he?. Not sure he is a massive puncher. Probably get loads of UD's though.

    I understand rushing rigo because he was 30 when he turned pro. but loma has time on his side.

    I dont see how people can see rigo is better based on the amateur records?
