    Yeah, Lomachenko was the only one fighting the round one, really the entire fight....................he showed no signs of a hand injury either...................

    Rigondeaux was simply overwhelmed from the start and inevitably quit to get out of an already guaranteed beating. The broken hand excuse is just a cheap way to keep his name relevant for future fights.

    It's the Cuban mentality. Boys are raised to be machos, to think they're the best and unbeatable. To call out others and claim you're the best no matter what. No humility, no critical analysis of their own skills.

    And after they get their head bashed in they're unable to give proper respect to the man who beat them. See Lara, Solis and Rigo.

    Horrible performance.. Just horrible.. Props to Lomachenko.. But mainly for dealing with Rigo's stupidity and ability to look horrible in there.. Plain horrible.. I would've been extremely frustrated I wanted to hit him for the holding and bending over bs... WTF

    He doesn't really need to apologize. The fans will answer him at the box office whenever he fights again. Not like he was packing them in anyway:lupie:

    No he wasnt. Rigo made him miss over and over. By the way, Loma never landed one shot on Rigo's chin all nite.

    Why did the ref deduct a point from Rigo. I think there was no good reason.

    He owes Loma an apology, he didn't even hang around long enough for him to slip out of first gear let alone into Matrix mode.

    Yes he owes everyone an apology. He talked **** for months and months. Posted all kind of jokes and insults about Lomachenko on social medias.

    Then on fight night he does nothing but clinch, rabbit punch, duck low and low blows. And quits like a little *****.

    That's disgraceful. That's no way to go out if you're a two time olympic gold medallist. People give **** to Audley Harrison and his paper chin, but he never quit in the ring.

    That kind of quittage is only acceptable if you're a journeyman. And even then, it's rare for journeymen to quit like that, they usually never quit even with a blood face.

    Then there's the hand excuse. Pathetic. They couldn't even pick what hand he injuried! Was the right? No! No! Let's make the left! It's my power punch, the strongest arm, y'know?

    And after all that, he never gave credit to Lomachenko.

    People now are asking to give him respect. Respect for what?! I respected him much more before he acted like a little punk!

    So many boxing experts were picking Rigo to knock Lomachenko out easily, I guess Rigo believed them...................went to his head, then when the fight started Rigo was shocked by the angles and footwork of Lomachenko, the speed as well, Rigo was simply out classed..............it was no contest. Watch all the YouTube crap, they were so biased! Lomchenko did not want that fight,but Rigo kept running his mouth, then the fans believed Rigo, finally the fans demanded the fight, it was not Lomachenko's fault.............

    Rigo explained what happened. He hurt his hand.
