    Watching this for the second time. The first time I was thinking, "Man, Chenko really doesn't look that impressive." I figured maybe I missed something like you do the first time you watch a fight.

    Watching it again I am thinking "Man, Chenko really doesn't look that impressive."

    He is an elite level athlete, I've seen him walk on his hands and stuff, but he's a very good, not great boxer. He got hit alot to the head and body. The main thing he showed was incredible stamina. He is also very loose and flexible, but as far as boxing skill, not up there with Rigo.

    And maybe he wasn't super motivated against a 3rd world featherweight. I don't know, but watching this is the first time I've really thought Rigo had a half-decent shot.

    Very good but not great boxers don't go through the amateur system and more importantly the professional system achieving what Lomachenko has and is doing.

    Lomachenko was headbutted in that fight, not really hit by punches..................look what he did to Walters who knocked out Donaire................Donaire knocked Rigo down, if he can, then Lomachenko can much more easily. Watch the Sosa fight, Lomachenko is getting better with every fight.....................but fighters, no matter how good they are, do get headbutted sometimes...................

    Loma's high-pressure/swarming style, makes very good fighters just quit on their stools, fighters like Walters/Marriaga...

    Hope Rigo brings his A game.

    Really? Looked to me like he was frustrated & knew the guy was 3 levels below him so dropped his game to put on a show... I think he'll raise his game again here. He has to! In fact the GRJ fight will stand him in good stead here.. Quick short athletic southpaw... Fast hands!

    Hes peaked or peaking imo Loma. Still unbelievable and beats Rigo, but I don't think we are going to see any better versions of him. I see him getting caught a bit more and hes slightly slowing. I'll get flamed for it no doubt, like its an excuse for Saturday, but I have noticed a slight slow down in him. Or maybe i'm getting used to his breath taking ability !

    The only head that matters is the baby fist attached to the end of my pole.
