Bob Arum makes offer to Rigo to face Loma 12/9 in NYC

Sure dude.

 

Man if Rigo beats Loma EVERYONE is gonna duck him!

 

Could be. Depends what kinda fight it is. In theory, both guys would be forced to dig deep for the win and that kinda' drama generates interest, which can be monetized.

 

That's bull****. Rig's should get at least 800K, he's moving up two weight classes. And as far as age, yeah he is getting older now, but has yet to show it in the ring.

 

He's going to pull over 7 figures for this fight whether Bob pays him 500k or 800k. Dudes still on the $10 mil contract Roc gave him a couple years back.

 

I just hope certain forum members don't get as sore as they were when Kovalev got beat down, after Rigondeaux puts hands on Loma.

 

I hope certain forum members give Loma props for beating their mythical creature Rigondeaux if the fight doesn't go their way. Will you be willing to do that?

 

Lots of people will be on suicide watch if Rigo beats Loma greatest event of the year.

 

good post.

 

Roc Nation will hire Tony Weeks as their referee, so all Rigo has to do is hit Lomachenko in the testicles and Weeks will call the fight off. Bob Bennett will to on TV lying like hell, like he did when Rigo held behind the head, hit his opponent three times, then landed his best punch clearly after the bell....................Did you see Bob Bennett lie?! He sure can lie!

 

Certainly more than, say, Marriaga.

 

Loma's fight didn't start till almost midnight after the card was flip flopped around all night, 800K ain't bad consdiering that bull****.

Rigo just fought in the Co-Main on a PPV that barely did over 100K and his fight ended in 1 round controversy (changed to No Decision), Rigo is way ****ing over-paid, and wants even more.

 

Loma is going to crack that shaky chin of Rigoblins.

 

Loma's done ratings nearly as bad as Rigondeaux on HBO in the past too. Less than 800k is bad for anything on ESPN, even with the scheduling issues. He's simply not the draw that he's paid like by Top Rank.

One of the stipulations of that contract had to do with activity. I don't think he's actually being overpaid the way that deal lets on; he only made 120k against Flores for instance, which would be completely inconsistent with his expected payment if the contract was taken at face value.

 

You should go take a look at some of the boxing YouTube channels that are eating Loma because he doesn't fight Rigo. And check the comments out too while you are there.
