    And him being willing to fight Frampton @ 126 doesn't mean anything.

    Rigo's low work rate will be the difference. Loma outworks him before he out boxes him IMO.

    Possible.
    Rigo does pose a lot, but when he does throw, faces get broken.

    Can't count Rigo out 100%! He is a very good counter puncher plus the southpaw stance may take away Loma's ability to throw the straight left and side stepping to Rigo's left. That tactic work extremely well against Walters. NW was helpless because of that.

    Lomachenko KO's him at both 126 and 130. Fun fact - Rigo gets dropped even against fringe contenders.

    Clearly just a balance knockdown. Rigo up by 2. Rigo squared his stance in the clinch and got hit. Not really a ? on his chin.

    I disagree with power. Loma just throws a lot more. Rigo breaks what he hits.

    His irrational desire for GGG to move up does not mean your desire for Rigo to fight Loma at 130 is justified. Rigo should drop down if anything, going up from 122 is a suicide

    Frampton moved N to avoid Rigo, as did Quigg.
    Rigo is chasing them.
    Why not....theyre small guys who bring big dollars.

    Lomas a fairly large guy who doesnt have a big tv contract nor would he fill a british stadium.
    And I doubt Arum would book a stadium in Europe for a Rigo/Loma fight.
    Best they could do would be the small room at MSG or take the fight to Monte Carlo.

    That said....and IMO......126 would be fair enough if Loma was still interested, but seriosly, why fight Rigo there when he's looking to unify at 130 or get a big name at 135.

    Lomachenko is essentially Rigondeaux without the fragility or the boredom factor. Plus he's naturally bigger...

    Funny think is these two have the opportunity to replace Pac & Floyd but Rigos getting on a bit & he is an acquired taste. Shame they are not closer together in age. I suspect Loma will have the far greater career & it's a highly unlikely fight unfortunately. Two best talents in boxing right now for me. Kovalev being the third..
