    'Lomachenko should fight Rigondeaux'
    - Idiot, stop trying to pretend that just because you know who Rigo is, you know boxing. YDKSAB! Whenever a good thing is said about Loma, stop bringing up that little guy.
    - Rigondeaux refused Loma at 126lbs, and Loma would be dead at the 124lb catchweight Rigo requested. Rigo originally agreed to the purse AND the weight at 126lbs and then he backed out. It's NOT going to happen, stop talking about it.
    - Rigondeaux needs to prove he can beat a 'good' stylistic threat, in the meantime he's getting his ass dropped by fringe contenders for cereal box belts. Rigondeaux would get knocked out. End of story.

    'Boxing is Hit and Not Get Hit'
    - Yes, this does not mean TAP AND RUN. If you match these tap-and-run fighters like Erislandy FRAUD Lara against a 'good' fighter of old, Lara will get absolutely destroyed because he RELIES ON MODERN JUDGING/REFEREEING CULTURE of being relaxed over the level of aggression one must assert in a fight. The more aggressive fighter in boxing's golden eras would usually win the decision/those who were defensively sound but still used aggressive elements enough for it not to be a complete sham aka Willie Pep.

    Go wild.

    I laugh at all of the casuals who paid almost $100 expecting they were going to see a Hagler-Hearns war. Those fools deserved to be parted from their money that night.

    Golovkin would beat anyone between 154-175.
    Lomachneko gets a lot of hate.
    Kovalev dominated Ward.

    Maybe, but how about the rest of us who thought at least that Pac would show up to fight?

    Do casuals even exist anymore? Besides Canelo (and that's largely due to the huge Mexican-American community) WTF is mainstream boxing anymore?

    You can't just turn on CBS, NBC or ABC on a Sunday afternoon to find boxing. It has to be searched for. And nobody really has any sort of following these days in America that really goes beyond the circle of boxing.

    i like casuals tbh, i think boxing is the only sport where people with zero knowledge of the sport express their opinions like they carry weight.

    can you imagine a casual giving their opinion on something like cycling. 'ya that guy will surely win he's peddle technique is first rate, he also has go faster strips on he's bike'
