    Rigondeaux is not going up, he is a 118 pounder fighting one division higher remember that he is not a kid and 122 is his limit, I don't c lomachenko going down to 122

    Rigo's promoter is a piece of $hit who would probably try matching rigo with wlad if he ever beat one of his boys again

    So he's a peice of **** for getting Rigo the fight with p4p top 5 (at the time) Donaire on HBO & then getting him a defense again on HBO 8 months later?

    That would be a dream fight. However, I personally would want Lomachenko to get at least 10 fights in against weaker opposition. Mind you, in this case, weaker is not an insult but rather a statement of how great Rigondaux is, arguably the #2 P4P fighter in the world right now.

    Only problem with that is that by the time Lomachenko got atleast 10 fights in it would take 2-3 years. That would put Rigendoux around 36 and probably well past his best.

    Lomachenko facing Rigendoux in his third fight(if it does happen like Arum has said) is a huge accomplishment and I don't think anyone would complain if Lomachenko got a few fights under his belt before facing Rigendoux, I think 10 might take too long though.

    Lomachenko has the superior amateur record.

    Rigo can't mix it up with fighters because of his Glass Jaw the one time he tried in the Donaire fight he was put on his ass and went back to circling the ropes throwing 22 punches a round and stinking out the joint. Loma is an exciting fighter and the opposite of Rigo.

    He is on the floor everytime he tries to mix it up. Why do you think he has his low punch output style? Why do you think he throws so few punches at Junior Featherweight? It is disgraceful.

    If he had no chin, he wouldn't have got up. Surely he has some punch resistance, considering he took Donaire's shots.
