    Well Rigo can either take the fight or not. He's the one that needs fights.

    Well looks like Lomachenko will have to stick to calling out guys in his own division, rather than looking down the scale to take on a smaller opponent.

    Rigo has to take the fight. High risk high reward. Even if he lose well, the fight might elevate his career.

    Rigondeaux's name came from Lomachenko first, not the other way around. And his name came after Lomachenko let it be known he wasn't interested in taking on a larger opponent in Walters, thereby indicating he expects Rigondeaux to do things in the sport he himself is either unwilling or unable to do.

    I feel you, but Lomo has options. Rigo's career seems to be languishing. I love Rigo, but let's keep it real.

    What options? He's already rejected Walters for the time being and it's going to take a lot of money to pry Selby away from Hearn's domestic defense circuit. Lomachenko's last 2 fights were on PPV undercards, so it's not apparent he has a whole lot of HBO backing at the moment either.

    Loma's looking for belts. He would have fought Walters, but Walters lost his belt on the scales.

    :patsch

    What belt in Lomachenko's division does Rigondeaux possess?

    Lomachenko isn't that big of a star either and he woudn't even have try to make that rehydration clause, but he seems to be a bit of a diva . I know Rigo has very limited options and I'm sorry for him because he's a great boxer and humble person. Btw I'm almost sure Rigo would beat loma by UD

    Sometimes you go full ret@rd.

    Yeah Loma is such a dive that he never complained once the multiple times Salido hit him low.

    Lomachenko's a *****. He'll never fight anyone remotely competitive again. He won't fight anyone dangerous at his own weight, and he won't fight anyone dangerous from a weight below him. He's just going to milk the paper title he won in that ******* jack box until he retires, same as everyone else.
