    I wasn't the one who even brought Wilder up you ****ing moron. He was the one bringing up "old" opposition Wilder beat. Like it's even comparable. There is an abundance of legit 35+ year old HW's with quality wins. Rigo was tiny at 122 and moved up 2 weight classes while fighting low level opposition and being inactive. Even if Rigo was active fighting top guys he had no chance moving up 2 weight classes.

    Do you see Loma being an inactive 35+ year old fighting a prime p4p talent without any tune ups 2 weight classes above him? I don't. Even Loma in his prime right now, like his manager said, it would be suicide to fight Crawford at 140. "Lomachenko Manager: Forget Crawford Fight; It 'Would Be Suicide'", Can't link scene urls but here's the title if you want to google it. Even Loma said Rigo was way too small lmao. And no it's not him being humble, it's him being truthful and you have to respect that. Loma's fans are way more deluded and annoying than Loma himself.

    Doesn't Crawford start camp as a light heavyweight?

    If he does that's just him being lazy. Being 5'8 and 175 is not a healthy weight for someone with Crawford's build. I'm 5'11 and I'm 165. I also have a bigger frame than Crawford. Crawford doesn't have a massive frame, he's not like Canelo. Broner also got up in the 180's. Crawford being that weight is worrisome to be honest. But most likely he's on vacation now.

    I'm sure there is a thread on here where he was in the 170's/180's at the start of camp. You are correct though regarding it not being healthy especially when he was fighting at 140.

    If Crawford is so bad where are the Welterweights like Thurman, Garcia and Porter not rushing to get in there with him? The only one who seems keen is Spence Jr.

    Crawford hasn't beaten anyone good yet. Crawford will fight Horn, a sick joke, who can't fight at all...........next. Hell and Kangaroo would beat Horn........................but can wrestle, elbow, headbutt, etc., that's his best...........

    No need to quote my post twice. If I got to you then I apologise. Jeesh where to begin...

    FW:

    Tapia v Medina.
    Vasquez v Rojas
    Nelson v Leija
    Jofre v Saldivar
    Jofre v Legra

    LW:

    Casamayor v Corrales
    Casamayor v Katsidis
    Campbell v Diaz
    Mendy v Nazarov

    SBW? BW?? Where to start??? Zaragoza was a SBW champion up until 40 if I remember correctly... Beat McCullough etc

    Sahaprom was a mid 30s BW champion. Beat Nishioka.

    Nishioka was still a long reigning champ & beat Marquez etc in his mid 30s..

    The recent Hozumi Hasegawa was mid 30s when he won the WBC champ. Beat Hugo Ruiz I think.

    Nice that you acknowledge Klitschko. Give me these 'quality' wins of his? Make sure don't contradict your own post history mind ;)

    Now that question I asked you. Again, which of those HWs Wilder fought aged better than Rigo?

    P.S I assume you've never heard of baby Jake matlala too :lol:

    Are you illiterate? I said 122 and below. Not FW and LW LMFAO. Rigo is not even a true 122 pounder, he's far more suited for 118. Guys at 122 towered over him. By the way yeah Hasegawa won a title. I'm part Japanese, but he beat a complete bum. Lmao that's not a quality win. Contradict what? Wlad's wins over Povetkin and Haye are "quality" wins. Are they ATG wins? **** no, but they're very good quality wins. The facts are fighters 35+ at lower weight classes are TRULY exceptions and rare. While at higher weight classes it's not at all.

    LMAO and awful example with Nishioka. How old was Marquez? And what age did he retire. It before 37 lmao.

    We don't know how Rigo aged. He looked like **** against Drian Francisco, then fought some complete bums. Either way, Loma gets 0 credit at all for beating a 37 year old inactive fighter moving up 2 weight classes. Wilders gets all the credit in the world for beating Ortiz. A guy who isn't jumping 2 damn weight classes lmfao. Let me guess if Wilder beats Ortiz, you're going to call him old and try and discredit the win :risas3:.

    Jesus, you make this too easy. You'd try and argue against 1+1 if you could credit Loma more.

    Crawford is doing exactly what he's is supposed to be doing with the level of opposition placed in front of him........DOMINATE!. Now he is in the right division to see what he does against a superior class of fighter, that are larger than Crawford's past opponents. I believe he gives all welters hell.
