Rigo-Loma needs sticky thread at top of page

Anybody going to the fight? I'm gonna be in town for it. Up for pre-fight drinks for sure.

C'mon mods, this is a once and lifetime fight and it's less than a month away. I second this Someone create a nice master thread and we'll get it done. Thanks

The Promotion for this Fight has been just AWFUL to be honest! Zero Buzz for this fight. Amen, bro. I was gonna say the same. It could be the reason why there's no sticky. But I agree with the TS that it deserves its own shine. May the best man win.:boxing:

Thanks man, hopefully the fight lives up to expectations. It'll be the first time I root against Loma. Against anyone else, I’d be rooting for Vasyl. And, yes, I’m also hoping this fight turns out to be worth the wait. Can’t believe I’m saying this, but we’re almost there!

They didn't even do a press conference. Such a poorly promoted event.

Agreed. Also, update the site banner to include AJ and Thurman. Delete Canelo, he's done.

The Promotion for this Fight has been just AWFUL to be honest! Zero Buzz for this fight. They(Top Rank) better at least do a "camp life" for this fight like they did for Loma's last matchup. There are so many angles they could play up to build some antipaction. Two, two time gold medalists from dramatically different cultures. They could do a peice with Rigo in Miami and play up his Cuban culture and contrast that with the cold Ukraine. They could play up the different training approaches and styles for two guys that are both highly skilled... When I think of all the stupid and useless "all access" and "24/7" shows with Manny and Floyd fighting an under-matched opponent and all the money spent on that...but all the buzz for this great, once and lifetime fight is mainly coming from Rigo's freaking Twitter account.. insane...

Been meaning to give you full props, Darius. You’ve been championing this match-up for months, long before it was signed. I didn’t think it would ever happen, but you kept the faith. You were right, and I was wrong. Thank you for your efforts, brother. All the best. :fing02: Thanks man, hopefully the fight lives up to expectations. It'll be the first time I root against Loma.

Well Loma and Rigo are fighting at 130. Floyd started out and dominated 130 in his younger days. I'm sure Larry will spin it and make a post fight Loma-Rigo thread somehow relating to Floyd dominance in that weight class. He probably doesn't even know the weight but yeah once the winner gets credit the tears will flow and the insecurity will come out and Floyd's honor will be defended. Also like most Floyd fans he can't remember when aFloyd fought at 130. Was probably riding Roy Jones at that time like the rest of them. Probably was busy explaining how Reggie Johnson, David Telesco, Eric Harding were ATGs and only caught onto Floyd after he got KO'd.

He's from the wrong country. Also probably doesn't watch those weight classes because not linked to Floyd. Well Loma and Rigo are fighting at 130.

Surprised he isn't over these Rigo threads rooting for Rigo He's from the wrong country. Also probably doesn't watch those weight classes because not linked to Floyd.

It's a very unhealthy obsession. I thought maybe he's a young kid that idolizes the man but he's not (not that he doesn't idolize the man). Threads like - "Cotto's prime?" or "AJ-Wilder" come to mind and even told me that 5 1/2 years is longer than 7 years and 1 month, that 16 months ring rust is less than 6 months, that Margarito is better than Morales and Cotto is better than Pacquaio when talking about Barrera and Mosley for what reason....? He also hates Hagler and thinks he's a bum that was a coward because he didn't unify 168 when it wasn't even invented and that's so he can "justifiably" **** on GGG because..you guessed it he links GGG to Floyd. Surprised he isn't over these Rigo threads rooting for Rigo

Lol, that so true. Everything Larry talks about leads back to Floyd somehow. He saw all the credit Joshua was getting for beating Klitschko and decided to make a thread saying Floyd's wins over Manny and De La Hoya were better. It's just funny to me how someone can read about AJ and Wilder then somehow have the urge to make another thread about Floyd not getting enough credit? That's quite a bit of reaching there lmao.

This. Half this place won't even watch or talk Boxing if it's not Floyd, Pac, GGG, Canelo and now Wilder and Joshua. And if they do it's only because they are relating it to this like Larry does with Floyd every thread. One dude said "Bivol is an overrated white fighter who can't fight and has no skill or power" and when someone posted a picture he had no idea that it was him or that his heritage is Asian. Haha Lol, that so true. Everything Larry talks about leads back to Floyd somehow.

I actually prefer the lower classes, from 122-147 are my favorite classes,much more speed which i prefer

i agree too much Wilder Joshua threads, this is the fight right here, two of the most skilful boxers in the world :boxing: We have a lot of size queens on NSB. They know Loma-Rigo can't satisfy them like Wilder-AJ. That's what it comes down to yo.

Too many tard bandwaggoners in this site who only follow may, pac, lil g, and nelo. Real fights never get credit their dues in the lower weight divisions! This.
