Heard both Lomachenko and Rigondeaux looked awful. Is this true??

    Lomachenko boxed wonderfully. He took the fight seriously and didn't leave room for error. It wasn't an explosive display of ferocity. But no one expected that. It was cold calculated boxing to secure the shutout victory that would have happened if it's gone 12.

    Loma looked brilliant, as was to be expected.

    Rigo looked worse than I thought he would do, he had no plan B.

    Round 1 was dead close and looked like it set up a tactical chess bout. Round 2 onwards was a schooling, every time Rigo ducked Loma just followed him with punches till Rigo clinched. Eventually Rigo got a point taken off, started relying on hail mary shots then quit on his stool.

    Rigo his great, even here when keeping it at range, as soon as Loma started cutting off the ring he had no answer to it at all.

    Lomachenko boxed well and did what he had to do, it was a very good performance.

    Rigo hardly went out on his shield did he?

    He quit

    even less inspiring is why someone would quit if the opponent isn't landing squat. that being said, those stats are always bs.

    This was an absolute masterclass. I'm comfortable calling Loma an ATG.

    Lomachenko looked patient and decent enough against an unwilling dance partner. Hopefully that was the last we see ever see of Rigo. A disgrace to the sport and as a human being.

    Lomachenko looked fantastic!!!!!!! I expected Lomachenko to beat Rigo, but not that easily!!!!!!! It's difficult when you fight someone who is just trying to survive................
