    What do you think he is up to now? Is he in the US? Has he gone back to Cuba? Has he opened his own bakery?

    Loma should move up 2 weight classes and fight Spence! He won't be 40 like Rigo taking that challenge :risas3:.

    No it's not, Rigondeaux moved 7 lbs from his natural weight to fight Loma whereas Loma would have to move 17lbs from his natural weight to fight Spence + the fact that Rigo weighs in at around 128 lbs at fight night (super bantam) Loma weighed in around 135 while he was at 130lbs and Spence probably weighs upwards of 163lbs at Welterweight.

    I HATE it when people kick others when their down. Awful taste. He was a proud champ and had the balls to hop the ropes and chance it in the ring.

    I am not disregarding his credentials or anything, just find it curious that he was always talking so much crap on twitter and now that he lost he has not tweeted anything for 7 months.

    Why? Rigo talked a mountain of smack and then failed to back it up and therefore invited the backlash.

    He's a professional athlete/public figure/celebrity, so it comes w/ the territory.

    I'm not try
    I'm not trying to start an argument or disrespect anyone, but like I said he was and should have been a proud champ, of course he was gonna talk.

    I just think its sadistic, seems like some people enjoy this. He took a HUGE risk and lost. He deserves respect not hate.

    Why does he deserve respect? It's his CHOSEN profession. And he CHOSE to be a Twitter/Instagram troll and was relentlessly posting post after post of smack talk for almost a year straight.

    Of course he was. He was as skilled a boxer as anyone for a long time, so he's gonna be confident. Do/say whatever you want, I just don't enjoy it.

    What was the difference between Loma and Rigo? 12 lbs? (dont get me wrong, that a big difference)
    What would it be for Loma and Spence? 20+? (If Loma moved up right now)

    Rigo was offered the fight at 126 was he not?

    Lomachenko is in his third division already.....how many divisions has Spence been a champion or even To go for that matter?
