    I wouldn't be so sure. I think it's an evenly matched fight, but I think Loma needs another couple fights before Rigo to fine tune some things. If the fight happened tomorrow, I'd probably take Rigo to win.

    Why? No network is going to put Rigo on. You wouldn't be able to watch the fight.

    He may beat him by being bigger and stronger... But school?

    I think Loma will be too big for Rigo. But Loma vs Walters is going to be the fight to make. I won't mind seeing GRJ vs Rigondeaux at a CW though!

    Yeah... I agree. No one could ever school Rigo.

    I'm a fan of Lomachenko, but people need to calm down GRJ seemed very legit, but people should realize he has fought absolutely no one of note, fighting cabdrivers is an overused term but that's the exact definition of GRJ career. Good win but, people and their short term memories he struggled horribly against Salido someone who's style should have played right into his hands but he couldn't deal with his skills, it took 9 or 10 rds to adjust and figure him out..

    Donaire still has fight ending power, he may lack the confidence he had but he still has the ability to hurt his opponents, Vetyeka was in trouble in the last 2 rounds and even if the cut hadn't caused the stoppage he still would have most likely been KO'd, his fight against Vic he looked bad but still KO'd him, Donaire would not be a walk in the park, I'm not sure he ready for a fight of this caliber yet.

    As far as Rigo goes I'm not a fan but, I can't see Loma beating him no matter what he does, he won't land combinations on him, he's not good at walking down fighters, he would be countered all night, it would look like a reversal of what happened against GRJ.

    Wish this fight would happen but damn Rigo looked puny compared to Donaire. Loma would have even more of a physical advantage.

    If Loma beats Rigo, he would be undoubtedly P4P no.1
    Mayweather has never even touched an opponent anywhere near to the eliteness of Rigondeaux and arguably lost to Maidana, and certainly lost the first Castillo fight.

    Void is still running from Pac which is a disgrace...............

    Lomachenko has a mandatory to fight first, it's a shame the boxing orgs screw things up...........this it too soon for Lomachenko Vs. Rigo, that fight needs time to get exposure, they both need to make some big money...........
