The Vasyl Lomachenko vs Guillermo Rigondeaux prediction thread

This is my favorite excuse so far. Rigo is too small, even for 122.

 

5'3 and always the smaller man in the ring at 122. That's a fact. He moves to 130 to fight a 5'7 opponent. Just stating facts.

You seem confident. How long do you think Lomachenko's face will hold up.

 

More excuses. You are not confident, that is for sure.

Is that your theory? Loma retires on cuts? From what, Cuban glass shattering all over the ring?

 

Loma late round KO.

Rigo doesn't have the style/punch output to beat Loma. Plus Rigo is old, plus he has been inactive, plus he is packing glass, plus he is the smaller man. It all adds up to a Loma victory IMO.

 

His face looked like crap in six rounds of a fight where he barely got hit. Rigondeaux, will hit him more frequently than Marriaga, with that sharp bone cracking power.

 

People keep nursing this myth that rigo is packing glass. I have never seen him hurt, there were flash knock downs like ward vs kova, jacobs vsggg. but rigo always got up never worse for wear and finished the fight.

Rigos chin will not be a factor in this fight (at least not by a one punch ko)

This is more like both fighters are going to get beat up pretty bad (thrilla in manilla style)

 

I know, he shrinks every day too.. Last week he was 5'4'.. Now he's 5'3.. I can't wait for tmoz!

Where u got the 5'3 one from?

 

bookies have been wrong in the past, but usually they know what's up.

 

Heart says Rigo, Brain says Loma

I find this one of those fights that's hard to predict, idk what people see that makes them so confident (Other than a bias)

 

You can check my posts on this forum. I've always stated that Rigondeaux was 5'2 1/2 maybe 5'3 max. It's also possible that measurements for a lot of boxers in boxing are off. You can use your own eyesight and common sense and see that. Example, Joseph Agbeko is usually listed as being 5'5 1/2 to 5'6. He was at least three inches taller than Rigondeaux though, as was Donaire. You can try to make excuses all you want for why Lomachenko gets the pumpkin face in December. Trying to give Rigondeaux a growth spurt in his late 30s may make you feel better about the ensuing whoopin I guess.

 

Could have been 1.10
