    Not sure Loma could make weight but judging on the fight they had Loma wins, and it’s not because of size and age. Rigondeaux could not handle the lefty stance that Loma posed so while obviously he would perform better, Loma’s technical advantage and equal skill would see him prevail all the same.

    Rigoblin had never seen anything like Loma amateur or pro. 470 or whatever the actual number is of amateur bouts coming up through the Cuban system and fighting at the elite level and he'd never seen nothing like that before. Hence why he looked utterly lost and bewildered in there and the only answer he could muster to try and solve The Matrix puzzle were dirty tactics and why pulled a no mas. His utter bewilderment was plain to see and impossible to disguise.

    He should've kept his mouth shut because it kept writing checks his body and skills couldn't cash. He was so embarrassed by his schooling he vanished from existence for almost a year and the only reason it wasn't even longer than that was because the search party that had been sent out to find him discovered the monastery he was hiding out in on a remote island in the Caribbean.

    If you dig through my posts you will see I have always acknowledged Loma lost to Salido. So there go all your arguments.

    You have nothing left. It’s literally that easy to defeat you in an argument.

    We all know you have mental problems, and this site is the little recreation they let you have every day. So nobody takes what you say seriously. We understand.

    Size matters. Loma every time. That doesn't mean Rigo wasn't elite.

    Weight, youth and size had a lot to do with it. It's why guys less skilled than Rigo, who are Loma's size are giving Loma problems. We know what would happen if a guy Loma's size had Rigo's skill level, or Crawford's for that matter. And haters don't even realize that Diaz stopped the fight, not Rigo.

    WHAT ??????? You blind, he was motioning his arm was ****ed or his hand and gave no resistance when it was stopped. He gave them the idea to stop the fight, he quit, bailed, whatever you want to call it. He got dirty as the last throw of the dice instead of trying to win, that's a great example of a quit job ! Best example ive come across

    It was a style thing though, skills v skills, not really a sapping fight for him like a pressure fighter that's all over him not letting him breath..He got frustrated and dirty down to not being able to land
