    No. You're going to say something like "It's not the same Rigo we knew. The old Rigo would have destroyed Loma. If only... ".
    People always say it about Lomachenko's opponents. :)

    What happened to Rigo not wanting any concessions? All of you who praised him for this look foolish right about now. Even more foolish than that crap spewing cuck doing all Rigo's talking for him.

    very true aswell.

    I remember Lennox Lewis saying that the first time he ever went to a boxing ring he almost gave up because they put him in with a guy a lot lighter and he couldn't get anywhere near him and got beat up.

    I don't see why we shouldn't have what are essentially 'rehydration clauses' as standard in all honesty.

    It's a hell of a lot healthier for everyone involved and we'd actually see, for example, who the best "Welterweight on the planet" is...rather than the guy who is simply better at rehydrating and becoming the bigger Super welterweight in 24 hours.

    I suppose it's all about politics though....

    Rigo is counting on Roc Nation owning the referee, boxing commission and judges as they did in Vegas, don't think he can get away with it at MSG...........Lomachenko hits very fast at so many angles, same with foot movement, he gets his opponents used to getting hit, then sits down on his punches at the right time.................Lomachenko has power. Can Rigo bring his power up to 130lbs.? Lomachenko punches harder at 130, people forget that Lomachenko is also fast, but has more angles and foot speed than Rigo. I have seen Rigo knocked down.............So many give Lomachenko zero chance on this board, zero! However, Lomachenko is the betting favorite for a reason...............

    I never understood the panic and big deal about fighters being over the weight limit by 1 or 2 pounds.. and now this rehydration clause wtf?? There are heavyweight bouts when one opponent weighs 50 pounds more, and in some extreme cases 100 pounds more!! (Valuev vs. Monte Barrett) So who cares.. is it really that big of an advantage to weight a few more pounds? Rigondeaux is a scared b i t c h

    I think that reasonable considering Rigo moved up that much.

    It's beyond the shape of the earth at this point but if you're fooled by cgi ;)
    We can't leave low Earth orbit, when you spend hours upon hours of research you will see.
    All the space orgs in the World are working together to deceive you, taking billions each year.

    There are more important matters though because people accept the reality they're given. Even though there's no proof the Earth is spinning 1000 mph, barreling through the universe at 67,000 mph. Keep on trusting these occultist though:nonono

    Operation Solar Shield Harvard university is more important, they're spraying us like bugs.

    Good job. Nobody knows what shape the earth is, but I can guarantee you it ain't a marble hurdling through space.

    Smaller in mass, shorter by three or four inches in height. I'm interested in who has more reach. Wingspan and reach are two different things. Measuring from armpit to fist is a more accurate and usable measurement.

    Rigondeaux. About 2 inches advantage (if not more).

    Wasn't Loma a LW in the Olympics? Loma won't get any credit if he beats Rigo. He won't get any from me. I just get mad thinking about why he hasn't rematched Salido.

    Because Salido turned it down. Not enough money for him.

    But I am almost sure that the next Loma fight (after Rigo) will be against Salido. So just be patient.
