    Loma was the far bigger man and yet still outsped and outskilled (surprisingly) Rigo.
    Doesn't matter what weight it happens at Loma >>>>>>> Rigo, no knock on Rigo,
    Loma is just special talent

    Loma just beat two champions bigger than himself. Linares he stopped. Pedraza he beat by a wide margin plus two KD’s after coming off shoulder surgery. Rigo had one close fight with Donaire on his resume and after that nothing. Please do not compare these two men as fighters or mention “Rigo’s skill level” in the same sentence with Loma. Rigo was nowhere near the same level as Loma and he proved it.

    Lomachenko's style is all bad for him.

    Rigoblin didn't even have the guts to take the knee. Yes taking the knee and bowing to your opponent on the battlefield is an act of puke inducing cowardice but nothing is more cowardly and contemptible than to scamper back to your corner like a whimpering little rat and pull a fake injury whisper into your trainer's ear no mas.

    I'm a traveller and every man in my breed going back hundreds of years are fighting men. Real fighting men don't wear gloves but to answer your question, Yeah I've donned a pair them more times than I can remember, whether it be in the gym, in any of the numerous amateur tournaments I competed in or when I won my European title in the pros.

    You've heard of this guy, right?

    No question about it, nothing is more shameful than pulling the whispering in the ear of your trainer in your corner fake injury no mas.

    People who favor Rigondeaux fail to recognize that he isn't that effective against southpaws, let alone with the skillset that Loma has. The fight could have been more competitive in lower weightclasses - Rigo was very tentative to Loma's feints and part of the reason is because he imposed his physicality. With that advantage taken away, perhaps Rigo wouldn't fight as scared as he did. But stylistically, I don't see this fight going any differently. No way Rigo stops Loma's punch output, so he would have been overwhelmed in the same manner and eventually quit.

    You’re one of those cretins who wants to see a prime champion beat up a shot legend, huh. Do everyone a favor and log off this site and go back to watching cage fighting.

    If Lomachenko could have made 118 he would have fought there.
