There are 4 good reasons why he Loma not only should, but MUST fight Rigo.
1: It is a fight that has been demanded by the fans for ages.
2: He has already cleaned Super Featherweight, but Gervonta Davis is getting better and better for every fight, so Loma will have to move down (he can't move up, as Robert Easter is there).
3: Loma can easily fight at featherweight, so it's the perfect weight for him to fight Rigo, and it must be Rigo, as no one else could be a threat to him at featherweight.
4: It would contribute to make him a legend.
Do you all agree?
I am a big fan of Loma and Rigo as well. I want them to fight the sooner the better. Rigo wants the fight. I think Loma is just as good as Rigo ever was but younger and bigger. I think he would beat Rigo by a large amount and put an end to Micro Troll Cop constantly saying how easily Rigo would beat him and how he is afraid to fight Rigo.micro troll will cry and make excuses just like the other clowns are doing now that it looks like the fight is going to happen. I too agree that lomachenko would be too much for rigo at any weight. loma is just as skilled and fast plus he has the better chin between the two of them. add in the size and age advantage for loma and its a wrap for rigo.
They must fight cuz they are both Olympic winners, fought about the same opposition, at their prime, its a great fight, loma has the advantage, the fans want it (not the loma fans) & last but not least they must fight because of bob arum....lolI am a big fan of Loma and Rigo as well.

I think He should take what ever good fights are offered to him. I think he can beat anybody who fights between 126 and 135. If a good deal to fight Rigo is offered to him he should take the fight. He is too young and big for the great but old Rigo. Davis is very good but I think Loma can beat him now or later. Davis is improving but so is Loma. Why should he fear Easter when he has better skills than Easter in my opinion. Of all the boxers who fight at 135 I think Mikey is the biggest threat to Loma, not Easter. I think he could beat Mikey at 135. What Loma should not do is make the mistake good boxers Gonzales and Donaire did of moving up too many weight classes. He should not fight above 135 because he is too small for 140.A natural 140 pound boxer with skills equal to his will beat him. He shouldn't fight Crawford or even Mikey at 140. I would like him to remain at 130 and just kick ass from now until he retires. Whoever he fights someone will surely complain that he isn't fighting someone else. That's the way many fans are these days. No boxer can please everybody or fight all his rivals at the same time.
Only #1 is true.
Gervonta wants nothing to do with him, and Easter is not the biggest threat at 135. Mikey is. And THAT is a fight that most people would love to see.
FW is not a perfect weight for him. 130-135 is. He's basically same size as Pac.
It's not gonna make him a legend. Rigo hasn't done a damn thing in 4 years and is much older and slower. A loss to Rigo would be a huge disappointing.
They are both great fighters/technicians. I would just love to see it for that purpose. One is obviously bigger but you still can't rule out the other.
