If the loma vs rigo where to hypothetically be made(i doubt it but would love to see it), who do you think would win and how do you think it would go.
I am not sure tbh, rigo to me looks like lomas kryptonite sometimes, but i don't think i can say that because we haven't seen him fight anyone like rigo.
Rigo is really good at handling side stepping and has a great defense and i would like to see how lomachenko would adjust to that.
Based on what i have seen, i am leaning on rigondeaux winning.
At 130 I would have loma as the favourite
126 I would favour Rigo to edge out majority of the rounds, loma knocking him down twice. So something like 114-112. Loma does start slow. And he didn't take enough risks against salido.
Exactly though i think its a stylistic problem for loma, i mean the way rigo dismantled donaire was something else man.
It could be. Loma likes to come in and out and Rigo is a great counter puncher with power. I cant wait for this fight to be made. A fan's dream right here!
think loma would school him. I think it's a bad match up for rigo.
Really, I think the opposite. Could you explain why you think this would be a bad match up for rigo?
Skill wise they are very close, different styles but probably equally as effective as each other in their own way. I think if they fought now though I think Loma would win based on the size and age difference, when two fighters are practically identical on skill then you usually go with the fresher/bigger guy.
I agree but i think style plays a much bigger part then size imo. I think rigo style would be really hard for loma. That is why i think it would be such a great fight, i would like to see how loma would adjust to it.
Interesting fight. I think Loma's size and youth gives him the advantage but I wouldn't count Rigo out. I mean, look how he embarrassed a bigger, younger, hard punching Donaire!

Loma couldn't stop Gary Russell, but now everybody thinks he suddenly going to run through Rigo? C'mon now.
Loma may very well get the TKO, but he'll eat QUITE a few bombs in the process.... The small Rigo might actually be the first to really check Loma's chin.
