Loma vs Rigo Live weigh in Livestream

Damn, Rigo looks so much smaller.... :( I didn't think so...a couple of inches. https://s26.postimg.org/pcqa7i3xl/Lomo_vs_Rigo.png

Loma is maybe 2 inches taller and less than a pound heavier and both boxers are equally lean. I think this big weight advantage Loma is supposed to have doesn't exist. It's a fair fight between two great boxer-punchers who will probably weigh within a couple of pounds of each other on fight night.

I'm expecting fireworks tomorrow night! :boxing:

True, but I think people are overlooking that 8lbs on a guy who is 130lbs is a HUGE amount. We tend not to think much of 8lbs because we think of guys like Canelo going up 12 or 15 but when you're that small, 8lbs is a ton of mass. And, it may end up being even more.... Rigo himself keeps saying quality is better than size... I trust him... Loma better not fall in the weight trap, which I'm sure he won't... May that fight be memorable...

Should be an exciting fight after they feel each other out in the early stages, plus they are southpaws w're in for an explosive encounter. Loma will re-hydrate a fair amount going by the weigh in, Rigo is already in fighting shape don't see him being any heavier on fight night plus I wouldn't want him to either, rather he retain his speed and explosiveness.

True but Loma isn't that big i honestly think this comes down to Rigos left hand and if he could get Lomas respect because imo if the left hits and Loma doesn't budge Rigo is getting drowned. Rigo left is getting hyped up like its god like from sparring partners who say he hits like a 147lber to fans calling him the jawbreaker. Cant wait to find out, im more hyped about this then Canelo vs GGG.

We got a fight boyos

He can, he just cant weigh in at tomorrows early weigh ins over 138, its basically like the ibf rules after that he could re hydrate more.

Vasyl will weigh more tomorrow. What I’m saying is, I’m not concerned about the size difference at all. That has been the talk all along, and now, after seeing them face off, I’m not worried about it. It'll come down to whether Rigo, at 37, still has enough left in the tank, and whether he’s rusty. I think this fight will live up to its billing after all. I think so too, this is going to a great match

Lmao He’ll definitely hydrate to a higher weight, but he’s not allowed to go past 138. He can, he just cant weigh in at tomorrows early weigh ins over 138, its basically like the ibf rules after that he could re hydrate more.

Both guys look in good shape, which is expected. Let's hope this fight is better than expected.

Notice that Rigo's muscles had a roundness to them and his skin didn't look paper-thin. This tells me he's hydrated and won't put on much, if anything. Loma looked very flat (muscle-wise) compared to how he looks in the ring, and I imagine he's going to put on a good bit of weight. Yep i noticed that too. Rigo looked like hes in fight night shape. Loma you could tell will put more on especially after weigh ins he went directly to hi bottle for a drink. But with re hydration clause i expect anything from 135-140.

Yeah but they bamboozled the Roc Nation/ Rigo crew by specifying the 138 in Kilograms, not Pounds LOL :D:D:D:D that had me laughing

In the 10 minutes since the staredown Loma has already gained 22lbs in solid muscle mass :) Lmao He’ll definitely hydrate to a higher weight, but he’s not allowed to go past 138.

HE can only hydrate up 138 until to morrow morning,he has to weigh in again tomorrow morning Yeah but they bamboozled the Roc Nation/ Rigo crew by specifying the 138 in Kilograms, not Pounds LOL

Size is always an issue. People like to cite smaller guys who beat bigger guys but they did it DESPITE being smaller. Being smaller is not going to be an advantage. I'd really love to see Rigo take it, but I think it'll be harder at 130, considering what I just saw and how much weight Loma is going to put back on tonight. Vasyl will weigh more tomorrow.

Wonder if Rigo will re hydrate or will this be it. Notice that Rigo's muscles had a roundness to them and his skin didn't look paper-thin. This tells me he's hydrated and won't put on much, if anything. Loma looked very flat (muscle-wise) compared to how he looks in the ring, and I imagine he's going to put on a good bit of weight.

This is it. Rigo won’t get any heavier. Vasyl probably will. In the 10 minutes since the staredown Loma has already gained 22lbs in solid muscle mass :)
