    More recently Egis Klimas and Bob Arum have been saying they haven't actually received anything formal from Rigondeaux and Rigo responded saying something in the effect of 'well that's according to them, not to me' - it's just he said, she said.

    They had already decided on Marriaga by the time they were trolling Rigondeaux back because they just didn't take him seriously - tweets from Egis kinda confirm that. Go and search, I can't be bothered.

    Most recently, Lomachenko said in interviews in preperation for the Marriaga fight that he will destroy Rigondeaux.
    Rigondeaux started his twitter tirade again - the fault of this restarting is thus probably Lomachenko's, but now that Loma is in killer mode in sparring etc. he doesn't care and wants to punish Rigondeaux in the ring. He has also offered a proposition - 'Our purses both on the line. Winner takes ALL'.

    Lomachenko offering this to any opponent:

    Loma remains a little angered by Rigo. Calls him a 'balabol' again:

    VERY interesting video. Egis Klimas also revealed purses for the recent fights:
    Miguel Berchelt earned $280,000
    Takashi Miura earned $195,000
    Jezreel Corrales earned $75,000! (Klimas didn't say it loudly but you can see it on the screen).
    Castellanos earned $50,000

    Interestingly enough, even Robert Guerrero was earning far less than I thought.
    Numbers further confirmed here:

    So Arum today has just stated that Roc Nation and Arum have actually been having talks with Rigo over a fight AT 130. He said Rigo is worth good money (not worth a huge amount of money) that this fight is a possibility.

    Loma needs to stop flapping his gums and fight someone of note not bring up a marriaga coming off a loss

    I think like most cases, it goes both ways.

    I have to move my head, you really have a problem with Rigo when you said "he does'not have any fighting in his game" and go crazy selling us how Loma is too small for 135 when five years ago was fighting 132 in the amateur stop defending this dude for his poor choice of fighting a 126 lbs guy who lost his last fight as a feather.

    Lomachenko would knock Rigo out, but Lomachanko said if Rigo wants the fight he will fight him at 130.................Lomachenko wants to go up to 135 and fight Mikey Garcia, he would out box Garcia without any problem.....................Lomachenko is still trying to get Salido into the ring also, it would be a mismatch...............

    Those bigots who complain about Lomachenko not fighting anyone claim Wilder is the greatest fighter of all time and only fights the best out there. Winos from the alley are the best to them.......

    1. I've already addressed the weight in irrefutable manner. Loma is SMALL at LW, they all rehydrate to Welterweight/Light Middleweight, Loma has a smaller frame.
    2. Rigo at 130 - that's a fight I don't want to waste time watching. That's where the fight is being negotiated.

    Lomachenko the ducker! 11 fights:

    Rigo
    Walters
    GRJ
    Martinez
    Sosa
    Salido

    Even his 'fillers' like Ramirez, Marriaga, Rodriguez, Tatakhun, had very few losses & had fought at high level versus the likes of Selby, Walters, Salido, Flanagan, Ponce de Leon, Valdez, Mares, Chris John..

    Some of you need to lay off the crack & stop hating the unhateable!
