Lomachenko gonna stop Rigo speed will be too much late TKO!

This is pretty much how I feel. It may go more than 8, but I don’t think it’ll be very competitive.

Ironically, I think Loma is going to do to Rigo what Rigo did to Donaire.

I think Loma is just at a place in his career where everything has aligned - his skills, intelligence, confidence - to make him nearly unbeatable.

Other than the Salido debacle, I don’t recall any opponent not only looking capable of winning, but even looking like they were the same class of fighter as Loma. Each fight the gap widens. Rigo is his best opponent, but this is the best Loma we are going to see yet.

If he doesn’t end it mid-late, Loma wins wide UD with Rigo tasting canvass along the way. Rigo won’t take a sustained beating because he’s too good for that, but he will get caught with punches he won’t like - and probably can’t handle - along the way.

 

I believe he said the people picking a Rigo will be embarrassed. I don’t think that means Rigo should be embarrassed. I applaud him for taking the fight, but I consider him one talented Dead Man Walking. I just don’t see what advantage will carry him to a win.

And by the way, I can totally seeing Loma fighting Bud.... eventually. I think he’s going to get bored before long and start his trek up. He will do it slow and smart. He’s not afraid to lose with the blemish on his record already and he doesn’t want to be great, he wants to be the best.

 

The video makes some sense.................I do not like El Pollo because of the politics, Wilder is like Primo Carnera, Joshua should knock Wilder out, so far I like Joshua, not sure about Parker, but at least Parker will fight Joshua, Wilder will not, Haymon is protecting Wilder for a reason. When Spence fights a good fighter we will see, would like to see him fight Thurman or even Porter. Crawford is good fighter, can't wait for him to knock Horn out! I do not like Horn! Crawford/Spence fight would be interesting as well, but I expect Crawford/Horn to be a mismatch. Pac easily beat Horn, but was robbed. Rigo has always been boring, but in his last fight he fought dirty, holding behind the head and hitting, then waiting clearly after the bell to land a big punch when his opponent did not expect it, after the bell. SOB Ward, do not care if Ward is half Black, it's his dirty fighting that I don't like, low blows, head butts, home town, owning the judges, referee, boxing commission, etc. Loved Mike Tyson though, Ali, really liked him in the ring and out of the ring, truly a great fighter....................Lewis was alright, Joe Louis was great, Marciano I admire his work ethic, Hagler, a favorite, Hopkins as a middle weight, Monzon, Zale, Graziano, etc., Lamotta, Jersey Walcott, etc. The fighters who are discriminated against are Eastern European fighters, I found that out when I did work for the Klitschkos, they did not understand prejudice, Vitali was more street wise than Vlad. Lomachenko is a clean fighter, works very hard and will fight almost anyone.................as far as weight, Lomachenko would have fought Rigo at 126, but Rigo would not take the fight..................then Lomachenko moved up to 130 to get better fighters, will move to 135, hell, if he would have fought Crawford he would have moved up three weight divisions.....................all I am asking for is a level playing field for "all" fighters. I think Lomachenko will beat Rigo because of his skills, esp. his angles, footwork,speed, distance, timing, Rigo has speed, and timing, seems to have a balance problem, not sure if it's chin, could be more like balance at times..................as far as promoters, I hate Roc Nation, Arum, Don King, Oscar.................perhaps Duva is the least problematic...................networks, many commentators, esp. HBO, powers that be in boxing, boxing org's, all this is destroying boxing...............why can't a fighter have to earn his ranking, no matter who his corrupt promoter is. Adonis Stevenson is not fighting anyone, just sitting on the title.....................Bob Bennett bothers me, although he was nice on the phone, he said the same crap he told the reporter post fight and Byrd is not a good judge, should couldn't be so ignorant, she has been corrupt for years! Do not like the paid for rankings, WBC, WAB, IBF, WBO, etc., the truth is that the powers that be in boxing really do think the fans are ignorant, stupid, suckers! If fans could get together we could end that crap, but it's divide and conquer........................like the sicko Trump! Don't get me started on that crook!

 

You have an unhealthy obsession with a couple of lumps that Loma got on his face in his last fight. This must be about the 10th time you have mentioned it. It's like you are basing all your hope on your boy winning on Loma being stopped on cuts. It aint going to happen. Rigo has zero chance of winning this fight. He was afraid of Loma when he was at 126 and he is more afraid of him now. You cannot beat a guy whom you fear. This is just a late career pension fund fight for Rigo. A lot of people say the skill level of these two is equal. As skillful as Rigo is he is a level below Loma. There is no one around that comes close to Lomas skill level. He doesn't have a punchers chance because contrary to what some people say he lacks power. Donaire rates his power at 6/10. Loma has never been hurt in his life. Loma will do what he always does. He will intelligently use his sublime skills to increase workrate speed and power to stop Rigo late.

 

Has the reach been measured from armpit to fist? Wingspan is not the same as reach.

 

My "brutha"? Surely you aren't suggesting I'm picking Rigs because you think we are both Black. I've laid out my reasons for my pic. I'm not like that crew of you know what on here who always bet against Black boxers because they hate. I provided valid reasons about what I think may happen in the fight, and as I've stated before, I am a fan of both. Some of you get real sensitive regarding Loma's tender skin. If he is the better man on Saturday it won't matter. If he isn't than he will leave the ring with a pumpkin face or worse, but you all know they will more than likely rob Rigs on the cards if he doesn't stop him, so why get all worked up in the first place?

 

Your a stone wall racist, you're not pulling the wool over anyone's eyes.
So you want rigo to win because you don't like bob arum?
Yes that's a valid well thought out reason.

 

I feel that Rigo is being underrated worse than Godfather 3. Not saying he will win, I'm not sure who I'm going with. I fancied Rigo before, Lomachenko is sensational. Think I'm now leaning towards Lomachenko. So excited.

 

Once again a racist catches feelings and tries to project his racism onto others. Not sure what it is about boxing web forums that attracts scum. There are quite a few of you on these sites. Probably that ***** named Ian from the other website.

 

Could well be as Rigo been put down a few times

 

Nice try the 'great' one lol.
Always the victim lol

 

I was under the impression,
that I made myself clear,
but due too much foolishness being said,
I decided to come back in here.

R.I.G.O
Let it marinate.

 

You do realize Rigo had just as good of an amateur career and hast just as good of a pro career right? these two guys are evenly talented with the weight in this fight being the difference

 

Dumb analogy, completley backwards. How can Loma do a Rigo to Donaire? Rigo is much older, moving up two weight divisions and has every disadvantage. Loma will be more like Donaire beating a small man he is heavily favored against. That was Donaire's bread and butter. Loma moving up, beating Crawford would be Rigoesque.
