    I agree with this.

    I think Rigo is too sharp for Walters, and Rigo does hit hard as hell for 122

          I'd rather see Loma-Walters and then see Loma-Rigo... But Really, how important is it who beats Walters(Loma or Rigo) as long as we get to see Loma-Rigo at some point?

            Walters jab is dangerous and it's dangerous for Rigo too. That would be a tall mountain to climb. Long jab from a long fighter? Yeah, he doesn't need to be in Rigo's wheelhouse to use it.

              The fight that NEEDS to happen is Walters vs Lomachenko. There's also Mares and Gonzalez. The division is stacked to **** right now.

              You can throw Donaire in that mix too. Donaire vs Lomachenko, Mares and Gonzalez are also great fights.

              Donaire was talking about moving up and doing a Pacquiao-type run but he needs to stay his ass at 126.

                He's really not even a superbantam. He's a natural bantam at best, but just fighting at 122 for the bigger names.

                However, because of that crooked **** Arum, he might not have any choice over these things and needs to take what he can get.

                    I doubt it happens, Rigondeaux not moving up and I don't think Walters will be at 126 very long either

                    It is not Rigondeaux job to beat Walters, where is Gonzalez and Lomochenko? Walters wants to unify I'm sure

                      Rigo cannot cruise/lose focus against Walters and expect to win. That's why this bout is intriguing. I don't expect the match-up to happen, but it would be nice to see. How long can Rigo wait for Quigg/Frampton/Kiko and the rest of 122lb?
