    Lomachenko vs Rigondeux who will be greater? POLL

    We just saw Loma debut in a fight where he looked spectacular, and now there's talks of a possible Salido fight for Jan 2014. Which would make him the champion with the least of amount of fights in history. He's already the best amateur of all time and a 2 time Olympic Gold medal winner but a feat like that would put him on the track to an ATG career.

    Amateur Records:

    Lomachenko: +400-1

    Rigondeux: -400-12

    Obviously Loma is the better amateur

    In the pros it took Rigo 9 fights to become a champion against a mediocre champ like Rico Ramos. Loma might do it in 2 against Salido (who could rival Rigo's biggest win)

    Of course it's still early but who do you think will be greater when it's all said and done?

      I agree, I have trouble believing Rigo would ever face him. When they announced Loma was turning pro at Featherweight, Rigo was quick to say he was never going up in weight. The duck was in

          Lomachenko is already ahead of Rigo cos he fight with an exciting style throwing punches in bunches.

          Rigo only wait and wait till an opponent throws and then he will counter. Also running and running to keep his distance.

          Rigo running style makes him more difficult to beat but we will see how Loma does with Salido. Hopefully he can KO Siri with another body shot although I'll say that's very difficult.

            Salido beats the breaks off him. He got hit way too much last night. Wasn't that impressed.

              Honestly guys, I didn't see anything great from Lomachenko. Still too raw if you ask me. The kid he fought last night still touched him more than I expected him too. He KO'd him with a good body shot, but I don't see anything in his arsenal that tells me he'll be better than Rigo yet alone get past someone like Salido. Salido only has problems with fighter that have speed PLUS power. This kid is fast, but he won't be able to keep Salido off him just like Cruz couldn't last night. Rigo on the other hand has some major pop when he decides to get offensive plus his defense is spectactacle *Roy Jones voice*. What key attributes does Lomachenko have?

                  Loma has a more fan friendly and sponsor friendly style so I expect him to get more tv exposure, but I think Rigo will beat him and make him pay

                    Unless you jab, clinch, pot shot and run for 12 rounds straight you're a " face first brawler" too a lot of these fans
