Rigo is a legit pure boxer. It would be a chess match between the two and probably a close fight with Loma probably outworking him. But judging Mikey's last performance he would get outclassed by loma. Mikey looked average vs broner and was throwing arm punches just to keep broner off him. He looked basic as hell. Loma would embarrass mikey like he did Walters.
I thought Garcia looked good against Broner. When was he throwing arm punches to keep Broner off of him? All I remember was Mikey chasing Broner almost the entire fight. I don't remember Mikey ever retreating or throwing arm punches to keep Broner off of him. I missed that part. I think Mikey would be a harder fight for Loma than Rigo would be. Garcia is bigger than Loma and he has good skills and power. Rigo is excellent but he is much smaller and much older than Loma. The Garcia-Loma fight is far more likely to happen at 135 pounds then a Rigo-Loma fight at any weight in my opinion.
Loma really looking bigger these days compared to when he was at 126. Im actually surprised how bulky he got, the size advantage will be there.
I agree he is looking big and strong too. But you can't discount Rigo's power. I don't see Loma just walking through Rigo's straight lefts like they're nothing.
Knowing that Loma has such a size advantage, I think Rigo will try to get Loma's respect earlier. If he can make Loma fight a slower, more cautious fight he might be able to win on points.
What's so great about this fight, is that it is guaranteed to deliver. Unlike Manny-Floyd... Loma won't be afraid to apply significant pressure if he finds himself down on points...There is bound to be a KO in this fight at some point.
Loma isn't going to be casually walking down Rigo like he does with other opponents. Rigo's lightning quick counter left will get Loma's respect. Loma will be more careful trying to close the distance. Expect Loma's punchout to be dramatically lowered.

You're out of your goddam mind if you think anyone in or around mikey's division is outclassing him. Garcia-Loma is a 50-50 fight.
Loma would not be able to do to Garcia what he does to everyone else. He wont be able to overwhelm Garcia and mentally nreal Garcia like he does everyone else.
it was his 2nd pro fight, he got out pro'ed.
I guarantee you if lomachenko ever musters up the balls to fight mikey, he won't be showboating in the ring like he does against all these tomato cans.

Lol Loma could win but in no way would Mikey be outclassed. Loma could outclassed a guy like Beltran but Mikey is on another level.
It will be Mikey vs Broner 2 mark my words.
i can't see it. lomachenko moves his feet unlike broner. mikey thinks everything he does, loma won't let him even start. i love mikey but that's how i see it.
anyways this fight won't happen, at least not soon. top rank won't let it happen
What?? Mikey beats Loma imo, but Loma or any champ at 130 would wipe the floor with mini Rigondeaux. Berchelt and Davis would put that dude in the morgue. Mikey beats them all
