Many people we're asking to vote who didn't have a change yet because the poll has been closed on the official thread.
We all know the intangibles of this fight so,this poll is for people who promise they won't come up with excuses after the fight, from either side that is.
He didn't wing it for donaire tough who was his future cash cow and he didn't wing it for Loma against Salido which was a close fight and Loma doesn't bring in the big bucks yet
Or for Pacquiao, who was one of the two biggest stars in the sport, when he got robbed versus Bradley. Lot of corruption and incompetence in boxing, but it doesn’t always land on the side of the bigger name.
Hoping rigo wins legit. But if it goes to a decision I see arum winging it for his future cashcow

DON'T sleep on Rigondeaux. We might be talking about best Cuban boxer ever or best amateur ever, you have to go through hell and sacrifice A LOT just to defeat him
These men are two of the best pound-for-pound boxers in the world, I therefore have to go with the bigger, younger fighter. Can’t see Rigo being stopped — I don’t care what certain people say about his chin — so I say it’s Lomachenko by decision. I thought much the same when Guillermo fought Donaire. I’m hoping I’m wrong just one more time.
I think rigondeaux is facing a good opponent who's a lot bigger than him (not making excuses im neutral here) as skilled as rigo is I see him folding once he gets hit multiple times
I start to genuinely believe Rigo can do it but I can't help but think of his inactivity, the weight and IMO (pure speculation) he'd have to dominate to get the nod and I just feel its too much against him as great as he is.
My take is Loma is good enough to make it close enough to get a favourable decision. Rigo ain't getting no favours here.
If he pulls it off I simply do not think he is going to get the nod with the judges.
I hate myself for picking against Rigo I never thought there would come a day but this is a real big ask.
I take nothing away from Loma I like him a lot too and think he's an excellent fighter he just has everything in his favour here he could ever ask for or want.
I think Loma will win by stoppage - but I won't have to eat crow because I'm just here to enjoy the show no matter who wins, I don't get invested in boxers themselves.
If Loma wins, I hope it's by a show of skill and not brute force / his size advantage.
Something is telling me Rigo gets defensive early and take a lopsided UD loss but I'll go with my initial pick of Lomachenko mid stoppage around 8 rounds.
