Greater Fighter Lomachenko or Robinson

[travestyny]

I also wish I was as good at researching this stuff as you are.

Thanks, bro. I do get accused of playing in the dirt a bit too much. I need to learn how to just let these goofs wallow in their own delusional existence.

[travestyny]

*** this chump. Hes racist troll. And hes gay. Plus an idiot. He has a lot going for him. And in him also it appears.

lol. Agreed

[Mooshashi]

Man, do yourself a favor and put idiots like this on ignore already.

I have him on ignore and my quality of life instantaneously got better.

LMAOOOO. Ohhhh, Rigondeaux, huh? Going with an undersized 37 year old, huh?

Funny how the narative changes now that he quit after getting schooled.

What happened to all the pictures of Donaire's shattered face, and threats that Loma would meet the same fate?

Where's the talk about the seasoned P4P King exposing the inexeperienced hype job?

Where's the talk about Rigo's defense taking Loma to school?

How did everyone suddenly forget Roy Jones calling this "the best fight pro fight ' on paper' in history"?

What about all the Pro Fighters and Trainers who were stumped to make a prediction?

Rigo had his chance earlier to make the fight, but turned it down. Loma can't force him to fight.

Loma won on skill alone. He fought like the SMALLER man.

There's no way anyone who understands Boxing attributes the outcome of that fight to anything other than skill. The fact that you call Rigo undersize and suggest he's old is a clear indication of what we already know: 1) you don't watch fights (you only jack off to the photos); 2) you wouldn't understand what you were viewing, if you actually bothered to watch.

Now, do tell me, will Rigondeax be ranked higher than Henry Armstrong????? What do ya think?

You mean the guy who lost to Baby Arizmendi and Fritzie Zivic?

If he didn't want Freddie Miller and Charley Burley, why would he enter the ring with someone even more skilled and harder hitting?

Can you really imagine a guy fighting as recklessly as Ambers winning any rounds against Rigo, let alone surviving the entire fight?

Really, all you need to do is consult the film. There's plenty of it. If you could get over feeling all hot and bothered, and just appreciate the violence, you'd actually learn something.

And which do you expect to make it to the hall of fame, do tell?

Do you expect any one of them to be ranked higher than Jake LaMotta? Let me know, dumbo

LaMotta? The guy who's amateur career capped out as NY State Golden Gloves? He's wasn't even a national champion. He was a State Champion (not the best State, either).

How does that compare to Luke Campbell winning the Olympic Gold Medal? Now that winning medals actually means something?

Russell Jr and Salido were both more competent opposition than LaMotta ever was. Lomachenko fought them in his 3rd and 2nd fights, respectively.

Seriously, what was your favorite LaMotta performance?

Don't say "Raging Bull".

There you go again. Not making any sense. As usual. And who is William Hung?? I told you i dont follow those gay p()rn stars like you do. I wouldn't know who he is. Sorry...

So back to you evidence that supports your case? I sure didn't see how you had any evidence what so ever. It seemed a bit delusional. Then i had to noticed...YOU are the only one to think this. You may need to create some alts and act like you have friends that are just as far out in left field as you are and pretend they agree with you.

Oh, my bad, I think I remember who Pacman is... he's the guy who does his own stunts right?



Or... is he that comedian from the Hangover movies?

That would be my second guess.

Come on. Rigo lost to Lomo primarily because he was the smaller older (37) man. Then if he is to be believed he hurt his hand in the second round. He had fought less than 5 or 6 rounds in the last few years prior to this fight. Nobody with any boxing acumen thought Rigo would win that fight. Yeah Lomo deserves credit but let's not pretend it was between two guys in their prime and the same size.

I thought Lomo would win the fight (but it was a step up so I wasn't sure how well he would do). But I tell you there were a lot of people in NSB and in the sport bars I go to who thought that Rigo would school Lomo.

OK, so please explain to me what exactly Loma did that is indicative of him imposing his size, or exploiting his youth.

Why weren't age and size issues against Donaire?

How did Mayweather-Alvarez play out?

What about Moore vs. Durelle?

How were those fights different?

If you think Lomachenko won on anything other than skill, you're exactly what's wrong with Boxing Scene.

He is an incredible fighter in his own right.

But he's very, very boring. As lethal as his power is, he fights like a caricature of Mayweather.

Worse, he's super small and doesn't speak English. Probably promoters also don't feel it's worth investing in a guy that old, no matter how good, as he's just aroung the corner from retirement.

But on film, he's as good as anyone there's been. I'd even make him a live underdog against fighters as incredible as Jofre and Gomez.

But since most folks here are Kimbo Slice fans, he goes completely unappreciated.


That Rocky Graziano, though, man! let me tell ya! Godzilla would've stayed in the ocean if he knew that guy was on shore waiting for him.

Donaire lost his last fight because he could not keep up to the younger fresher guy. His age was a big factor in that fight.

Rigondeax lost that fight because he was no longer in his prime a much smaller man older and rusty. If both fighters were in their prime and the same natural size Lomo could win but that win would be hard earned. What we ended up with was a gross mismatch for the reasons I gave.
