Let's be 100% honest Rigo will get zero credit IF he wins

**** poster **** posting. **** not surprising. I'm impressed you found yourself into a thread that had nothing to do with Floyd or Pac (because of Floyd) or GGG (because of Floyd). Are you trying to upgrade from casual fanboy to boxing fan? If so, fair play to you!

Think about it. When Rigo ducked this fight at 126 for June of 2016 he set out on a mission of focusing just on Loma (as evidenced by finally taking the bout), but Loma has moved on with his career and beat Walters despite been given no chance by many here. He moved on from Rigo so has has limited time to plan for the amazing Rigo who was deemed way too skillful and good for him a month ago when both fighters were the same size as they are now. Think Leonard-Hagler when Leonard had 3 years when Hagler was fighting live bodies. Having said that I won't use it as an excuse it's just a major disadvantage but Loma will overcome it and prove the predictions of a month ago blatantly wrong. NO excuses from me personally though. Rigo. was asked by a interviewer like two yrs ago if he would fight loma & Rigo said he was at a different weight class then Rigo trys to work out a deal but bob arum lowballs him with 500k while wanting to give loma 1mil cuz bob wanted to stop his career after Rigo. whooped nonito donaire & arum's stable.....Then Rigo goes nuclear on social media to get the fight & it WORKED! So why would you THINK he ducked or didn't want to fight loma? They both will get credit & did you know that Al, golden boy & TR want to sign Rigo now? I bet you didn't.....

Rigo gets MORE credit for being 35 AND moving up 2 weight classes. Loma still gets credit too tho That's fine with me. Most find Rigo boring, he just doesn't waste punches, but he's like a viper with his reactions, that should be lomachenco's top priority in training for this fight.

The OP is honestly one of the worst posts I've ever read on this site. Keeps saying "no excuses" but keeps giving an excuse that Rigo has been able to "focus" more on Loma, which is code for him having been less active and fighting much less quality opposition. Loma is a huge favorite for a reason. I'm praying this is a troll because this would go down in history as the worst excuse for anything ever. Loma was at 126 in 2016. The weight isn't what the excuse makers are making out. The hypocrisy is hilarious. Loma MUST fight Rigo and then soon as he does he's ducking Crawford (who's announced he's at 147) and Mikey Garcia (who's just fought at 140). How is that fair? Loma MUST go up 2-3 divisions and fight an unbeatable fighter, but if an uneatable fighter moves up 2 divisions (when they are only really naturally 1 weight apart) to face the ordinary Loma it's a disgrace? Literally no one is saying Loma MUST fight Garcia or Crawford, pipe down now please. Loma-Garcia is a good fight but Loma-Crawford is murder. Loma not big enough for it.

What a ****ty thread.

Just to clarify I personally would give Rigo credit because a month ago I said he wouldn't beat Rigo and I think Loma is good. If I am proven wrong I would admit it. Like I said no excuses. I'm just saying it's possible that Loma is at a major disadvantage when it comes to preparation because I've been seeing how amazingly skilled he is and how Loma's not that good anyway.

Dude Rigo's head is the size of a tennis ball and he doesn't cut weight to fight at 122. He's moving up another two divisions to fight the much bigger, younger, and equally skilled and experienced guy. If Rigo pulls this miracle off it's going in the history books.

BS...rigo would get plenty of credit if he can win at 130. Rightfully, lomachenco should also get credit if he wins.
