Loma will beat Rigo. He'll beat him real easy. I can see Rigo quiting because he won't be able to handle Loma's dynamic skillset. Loma will systematically wear Rigo down. Rigo will be baffled by the way Loma creates angles with such trickery and speed. And the way he transitions from offence to defence and back with speed and fluidity all while throwing punches mixing up the speeds, the ranges, and the power. Rigo is the smaller, older man as well so that needs to be taken into consideration.
It's incredible whatever way you look at it. Lomachenko could well go down as an elite ATG within 20 fights. He'd definitely on that path. The "World Series of Boxing" when he competed were definitely professional fights though. Therefore he's had profesional 17 fights, not 11. Boxrec is wrong on that.
That's is commendable. However, he fought those over 62 fights & 21 years. His early resume has nowhere near the depth Loma's has & in fact he lost or drew in nearly half of his first 20 pro fights going 11-7-2 or something like that... He did get better though.
Don't think he deserves spot #1 yet, win over Rigo will not add much, as it was in case with Golovkin. And also Lomachenko has a small resume to be considered for p4p #1, when he will have over 20 fights we can talk, right now he can be near #1 and #2 but not one of them, especially with a loss.
Salido is the opposite of Vasyl in many ways, the Mexican Featherweight title fights connects you to many one step or two step wins vs big names in boxing Arturo Gatti, Levander Johnson, Javier Jauregui, Chico Corrales (Those are just the names of the ones that passed). Vasyl was matched vs the toughest pro possible on his Pro-Debut
Salido to Vasyl is what Castillo was to Mayweather. Vasyl will do slightly better in the rematch but it will not be easy & some people will argue that Salido won
Just for some perspective OP. Do this for Golovkin. Guarantee it's trash. As far as Lomachenko, the guy is barely over double digit fights. Same with punchstats. He has the highest since Floyd (how they hype it) but he's only equal to Floyd in his 10 or so fights while Floyd's numbers are over the span of his career of 20 years lmao Context needs to be specified more on this board.
