    Like I said, Kirkland was on that card, and people figured they'd get to see the guy who beat Donaire destroy someone quickly, Rigo (who I picked to beat Donaire:biggrin:) was still a mystery to most casuals at the time, and they got a borefest instead, they learned their lesson, which is why they turned the TV's over to Showtime for that match.

    This here has a lot to do with why he's banned from HBO.

    I get it ur not his biggest fan, explain this, they say it was due to ratings, but rigo agbeko did better ratings than frampton vs santa cruz, and kellerman calimed there was a market for pure boxing, it's got nothing to do with that adn u know it,

    rigo beat hbo's goldenboy donaire at the time and arums favorite, he wasn't supposed to and he caught the backlash for it

    Because no one really knows or cares about Frampton in the US, that was the 2nd time he'd been here, the first time, being an afternoon show on CBS on a weekend and he wasn't coming off of a win over a P4P talent at the time. Also one was in the summer, when not that many people watch TV the other was in the middle of winter, when more people watch TV.

    Rigondeaux puts the fans to sleep at the end of the day. Also, a 122ber vs 130lber - that's silly.
    Why is Rigo even calling for a catchweight knowing full well Loma rejected the catchweight because he could not make 124lbs? Loma gave him the chance to fight at 126lbs, Rigo agreed to everything then when things got serious he bounced and demanded a catchweight. Time waster inside the ring and outside the ring.
    122lb Donaire isn't even prime Donaire..that was coming onto 4 years ago.

    When he tried to be fan friendly during Marroquin he got his ass put on the canvas and reverted back to the old ways. Hopeless.

    Closer may have been a poor choice of words but the Donaire fight being 11-1 (i had it 9-3) is debatable where loma absolutely snatched the life out of walters and showed nothing even remotely of him being capbable of competing with Loma.

    Brook and Roasado made contact with Team Triple G. Lara has never made contact with them. Direct from LARA's OWN MANAGER which is a fact you are ABSOLUTEY DESPERATELY TRYING TO IGNORE BECAUSE THE TRUTH BURNS YOU DEEP IN YOUR RECTUM. (and for the record Rosado had fought at 160 previously, you know who hasn't though? Lara). And what exactly is Lara doing to earn it by fighting the Jan Zaveck's of this world?

    You are the 100% that's wrong with boxing believing someone wants a fight because they say so on twitter but don't back it up with actions. If everyone was like me, Lara would've tried to get the fight and actually done something outside twitter or been called out on his BS. the fact you think calling someone out on twitter is how fights get formally made say it all. As it is all a fighter has to do is call someone out on twitter, through a translator no less, then he's satisfied the morons.

    Have you noticed as well GGG don't follow Lara on twitter, so how does he know Lara """""""wants""""""" (and I use that term extremely loosley) fight him

    Same style but Loma attacks while Rigo plays it safe refusing to attack. Rigo is boring, get over it.

    back trollling again grannicus, and marroquin never had rigo down, in fact he was floored twice by rigo heavily, loma like robert garcia said has the same style yet he's praised for it, loma is a boring fighter to for the casuals whether you want to believe it or not, donaire also was the best donaire possible who fought rigo, was fighter of the year, p4p 3 at the time, and recognized as the best 122 had beaten all the best there nishioka narvarez etc,

    the only thing u said correct was that rigo loma is a silly fight, loma will probably move up to 135 and take flanagans title then rigo could move down to 118 would be 5 weight classes between them, loma should focus on beating salido first

    I agree. And in this clip they say Loma has a similar style (not the same style as the OP claims) throw more punches, is more active and more offensive. All stated in the first minute or so. And all of which I agree with. And it's the more punches, greater activity and more offensive style which means Loma gets the greater credit as of right now. Simple really. Rigo is talented for sure, but boxing is leaving him behind, which is why he chose this week to try connect his name to Loma and ride on the crest of his wave. Too late Rigo, I'm afraid. Too late...

    Why did you post this thread man? So people can be 'yes men' and agree with you? What's the real reason? I disagree. Donaire was a beast at 122 but not the ATG Flyweight he was. Rigo should focus on doing something of note since 2013.
    Lomachenko is not that boring to casuals. No one is as boring as Rigo (not according to me).

    I posted this because, there's soo many double standards in boxing, so many ignorant fans and trolls who kill the sport, and it's hot topic now, alot of channels are covering it, and yes lomachenko is boring to casuals, some even said he's more boring than rigo whether u want to believe it or not! donaire at 122 was p4p 3 at flyweight where was he?

    It's bull****, Loma doesn't fight anything like Rigo/Ward/Lara/Floyd at all. So the whole argument falls flat right there.
