Roman Gonzalez Weigh in 111, Fight Night 122

Inoue, Rigo, Lomo, Let's Go.

 

He already has moved up two, but I do believe he'll move up more eventually. There's no rush. There are big fights awaiting him at fly & super fly.

 

He already has, twice.

Quit all of a sudden acting like you know a single thing about Roman or Flyweight because you obviously don't.

Shut the F*** up and eat out of the spoon that HBO feeds you.

 

Flyweight is the best division in boxing during his stay there thus far.

He has beaten the lineal champ and two very, very legitimate top 10 fighters. All in impressive fashion.

 

You realize that Rigo is 3 divisions above him and Lomo is 4 divisions above him?

Those are not typos.

 

I'm certainly cognizant of the fact. But I am also aware that RG is a 5'3 grown man and GR is a 5'4 grown man so there is really no outlandish absurdity in hoping for a clash. But, understand my previous comment was partially tongue in cheek and while I do expect (or at least hope) Roman to gradually make an ascent to 122-126 before the end of his career, it is likely Lomo would have moved on to bigger and better things in more reasonable classes before the two even have a chance to lock up.

 

What's wrong with this? Guys just wanna see Roman test himself in the 120s, some exciting fights to be made.

 

What's wrong with it is it's wholly ignorant of the talent that lies at flyweight and super flyweight. There's plenty to test himself with there.

Yes, I get you. But if he's supposedly a p4p great and there are supposedly other p4p greats 10 pounds up, it's only natural, understandable, and reasonable that people would want to see these fights.

 

I'll assume you refer to a 34 year old Rigo who is three weights above him? How long will it take him to rise three weight classes?

Estrada is a pound for pound top ten fighter, is more marketable, and is the same weight.

This is like asking why Crawford isn't fighting Golovkin.

 

Well, no it isn't. When it comes to the lighter weight classes there is the unavoidable question of "how small is too small"? If there was a weight class for 85 pounds and there was a very good fighter who is knocking everyone out down there is it right to exalt him King of the game? Of course, these are kind of ridiculous hypotheticals, but they are food for thought.
