    I just rewatched the fight. Breathtaking performance from Lomachenko. Lomachenko made a MASTER BOXER look completely lost and hopeless. Lomachenko didn't feel the need to play it safe, either. No, he backed up his promise to "go through him like a tank" and pressed the action and flummoxed Rigoblin all night. Before the haters try to discredit the victory, it is a FACT that size was NOT a factor. Loma didn't impose his size and power wasn't the reason Rigoblin quit on his stool. Same exact result happens at any weight class they fight at.

    Nothing to do with size.
    Pure skill and artistic brilliance

    I think Loma`s reach was a factor and his jab was too much for the shorter armed Rigo.

    You dummy Mayweaver fan! Rigondeaux has like a 3 inch reach advantage over Loma.

    Rigo was a P4P Boogeyman.

    oops! Mayweather would adapt better than the one dimensional Rigo though.

    LooooL!! I’ve seen a few other of those trying to go with the Loma’s reach being a factor ****. It’s hilarious. THEY need to just come to terms with the fact that Loma is just a superior boxer than their hope was :)

    There's an argument that Sadam Ali's win over Cotto is better.

    1.A guy comfortably winning a fight he was expected to lose badly is always better than a guy winning a fight he was fully expected to win.

    2. Beating a guy above your weight class is better than beating a guy bellow your weight class.

    3. 37 Cotto was on a better run than 37 Rigo.

    4. Cotto is a first ballot hall of famer. Unlikely to say the same for Reego

    Id argue Rungvasi had a better win too.
