Comments Thread For: Rigondeaux Would Face Lomachenko at Catch-Weight

[CubanGuyNYC]

Exactly. And Floyd had the right opponents at 154.

Oscar and Cotto = Small 154 pounders with huge $$$$$$

Canelo = Big 154 pounder, but doesn't impose his size, with even bigger $$$$$$$$$$$$ that only an idiot would turn down. And he had a catch-weight of 152.

You don't see him moving up to fight Erislandy Lara, Carlos Molina, Sergio Martinez, Demetrius Andrade, Paul Williams, Vernon Forrest or Kermit Contron. All were top 3 contenders at the weight from 2007 to now but didn't generate $$$'s so what's the point?

And Rigo is fighting at 122 at the age of 33 the same way Floyd was a full fledged welterweight at that same age. Asking him to go up 5 divisions is like asking Floyd to go up to cruiserweight.

All great points, especially the bold. You're preaching to the choir here, bro, but some people need it spelled out. Preach on....

lol he's had one fight no doubt he would do better than agbeko, and i think nonito. people will think im jumping the gun saying loma > nonito, but unless nonito lands flush on loma's still untested chin... i think lomachenko beats donaire anyday.

rigo would probably win but itd be fun to see 2x olympic gold medalists going at it. arum wouldn't stop mentioning it/

I'm book marking this............in the future this post will be in my sig.

this lol, people act like everyone has the body to move through so many divisions, rigo is 33 man hes not getting any bigger unless hes fat...

Then there's this. A well-oiled machine like Rigo is supposed to put on a few pounds of blubber in order to fight the best in the higher divisions? Fuck that. If Guillermo takes the risk even at 126, it'll have to be for big money.

lomachebko BARELY beat BASHENOV (in a crap 5 rounder) and already these fools are talking about lomachenko > donaire.

i would absolutely love this fight, Rigo would school him so bad he won't even son him hell probably even daughter him, lomos flashy combos won't work on a master like Rigo.

[Godsfly]

The good thing for Lomachenko is he controls his own destiny. Sounds impossible but if he beats Salido in second fight.... Then rigo in lets say 5th? Fight.... He's surpassed an ATG pace and is on GOAT pace.

Cordoba, agbeko, donaire (rigos tipping on hall of fame status in just 13 fights) rigo actually went out and done what you're Prophesying and dreaming for lomachenko to do.........which is a complete & utter joke (u can't see that)

Rigo did say in the video interview he would go to 126 for 1 fight if they offered him good enough money which is a smart move he is way too tiny to fight at 126 .

RIGO IS A REAL 122 POUNDERS WHO WALKS AT 125 . HE IS THE WBA , WBO , RING MAGAZINE AND TWO TIMES OLIMPIC GOLD MEDALIST . IF LOMA WANTS ALL THOSE TITLES , LOMA SHOULD COME TO 122 . RIGO IS BEING NICE TO HIM GIVING HIM A CATCH WEIGHT AT 124 . WHO IS THE MASTER ? RIGO IS .

[lazarito52]

RIGO WILL BEAT LOMA , BUT LOMA HAS TO BE CAREFUL OF SALIDO ....SALIDO AINT NO JOKE AND IF LOMA DOESNT FINISH SALIDO IN 6 ROUNDS , THEN SALIDO WILL FINISH HIM . SALIDO AINT NI JOKE AT ALL .
