    Where did you an inch and a half? Rigs is 5'3 at most that would be 3 inches.

    Well if it's such a grave injustice to expect Lomachenko to fight a larger man, then why is it cool for him and his team to expect a smaller opponent to move up to accommodate him?

    Because that's his division, 126.
    If Rigo wants it he can move up.

    Lomachenko picked a division and is fighting in it yet he's getting hate?

    Too many clowns on this forum.

    This is correct. Walters has to prove he is still a featherweight.

    Also, Rigo > Walters pound for pound.

    Rigo<<<<Walter's @ 145.
    Forget p4p.

    LMAO.

    I like Walter's but he depends far too much on his size.

    He's fun to watch for sure and with his monstrous frame I could see him blowing out some 130 lbrs in the next yr, but eventually hell have to move up to LWW, AND I CAN'T SEE HIM LASTING WITH SOMEONE LIKE MATHYSSE OR EVEN BUD.

    yeah I noticed that also. I like both fights, so I won't complain. I don't see why a Walters fight is brushed off when they want to fight a non titlist at 126 in Rigondeaux

    It's easy to say "I want Loma" when Walters lost his belt and can't make 126 anymore.

    Now he barks when he's in the safe zone. When they were supposed to fight, Walters was running scared and talking about Gonzalez being the priority.

    With that being said, Rigondeaux has no obligation to move up for anyone. Lomachenko has no obligation to move down either, so they are pretty much in a pat position. Can't blame either one if the fight doesn't happen.

    And he's fought much bigger guys in the olympics so I doubt he's scared to face them, he'll move up at some point and fight (school) Walters, that's for sure.

    I still want to see Loma-Walters at 126 next but Loma doesn't think Walters can make 130 anymore and probably still has a bad taste in his mouth from the whole Salido thing. With that said I want Loma-Rigo to.

    I think Lomachenko should concede the 124/135 requests, especially after having his huevos battered by a 145 lb Salido
