    You are right though.

    Sure, I'm guilty of it. I openly admit to disliking several fighters based on their fanbase from this site (likely none more than Hopkins' during the Chad Dawson fights).

    C'mon fight nite Loma 136 Rigo maybe 126. 10 lbs or more advantage very considerable for the small division don't forget Loma was 132 pounder last amateur fight about 6 years ago he's not a feather anymore.

    I don't think Lomas power is weak, I just think he prefers to throw 5 fast punches rather than loading up

    I think Rigo will be the bigger puncher but that's not saying Loma has no power, it's more a case of Rigo has really good power for his size

    How do you figure a fighter moving up two weight divisions that's not known for his power, being the bigger puncher?

    I don't like Rigo at all hate his boring style, but this is a bad matchup for Loma

    Rigo has longer arms! This will not be a one side beat down. That great side step Loma employs after he throws the straight left, that handcuffs orthodox fighters, will not work against Rigo. Rigo is a highly skilled fighter too. Chess match of the highest order. This is the fight I am looking forward to.

    Rigo has the reach advantage. Size negated! Will not be a one sided beat down. Both fighters are too highly skilled to be dominated by another fighter.

    Rigo doesn't throw much but when he does the power he can generate is ridiculous. That's how.
