Just to make everyone happy I voted for the white boy...I've seen the error of my ways. It's much better to just follow the herd versus having an independent thought or opinion that goes against the status quo of ESB.
Why derail a thread like this from the start? Either way, I think Rigondeaux at this point may be just too much for him and even Lomachenko seems to think so, I'd really love to see it still though, it's probably my most anticipated possible match-up in boxing right now.
Rigo's on a different level than anybody at 122 - 126 right now....but I'd still love to see it happen
The amazing part is Loma would take this fight, unlike Mares/Leo and other contenders. Loma is the real deal, you have to like this guy
Loma needs a few more fights. It's insane to ask a 2-1 fighter to take on one of the best P4P fighters in boxing. As of right now, I still give Rigo the edge. One big equalizer that Loma has against Rigo is that he's also a southpaw. Rigo will not have the advantage he normally enjoys against orthodox fighters.
Grj looked like a boy last night next to loma. rigondeaux hits harder than grj. i cant draw any conclusions yet
right now rigo beats him but it would be smart for loma to let rigo get a bit older and gain some experience in the pros...
