A pro fight b/n the 2 greatest ams of all time and 2 of the best pure boxers in all of boxing. Rigo looked a bantam in there last night while loma looks a full fledged feather. Still, a purists delight. I also don't see either guy losing to anyone in their own weight classes so, why not?
Not yet. Even if Loma beats Salido, he needs more pro seasoning to fight Rigo. 3, 4 more fights perhaps then maybe some time in 2015. This may (assuming all goes to plan with Loma) be amongst the technically most perfect match-ups of all time.
Too soon I think. I expect him to beat Salido and look like a million bucks doing it, but we're talking about a top P4Per who wants the fight to be at a lower weight also. He needs seasoning and better negotiation power to not get drained, lowballed and outsmarted in that bout.
