    He has just as many detractors as he does fanboys.

    Personally I feel Lomachenko is more overhyped.

      They all stay away from Rigondeaux for a reason, he will do to the rest what he did to Donaire.
      Lol who's ducking Rigo? Rigo is the biggest name in his division, fighting him = biggest payday at 122 and the notoriety if you beat him...

      Lomachenko would stomp him.

        He's not overrated. Where is the poll choice for that?

        Too many wannabe Goebbels alt accts around here.

          Skills, accuracy, footwork, power, speed, defensive wizard...He has it all. What he did to Donaire is why he can't get big fights, he will do the same to anyone.

          Skill wise Mayweather is/was great, Rigo is even better.
          He's such a defensive wizard and skilled yet has be dropped already numerous times. Walters probably beats down both of the overrated Olympic fighters @126. PRO>AM!¡ Neither Rigo or Loma end up being a 3 division lineal champ by the time they retire. PPV stars they will never be also. Rigo has beat Donaire only lol... like Mayweather beating Corrales and staying at 130lbs forever and fighting Thai bums afterwards lol. If you aren't lineal champ in as many divisions as a fighter measured against you than you most likely aren't as good. Sweet Pea ****s on Rigo as best defensive southpaw.

              Agree with the bolded.

              However Lomachenko is seriously gifted and has a much superior punch variation compared to Rigo, Lomachenko will stomp Rigo and will be boxing's next superstar.

                Biggest name? Perhaps.

                Biggest payday? Not a chance. Rigo isn't exactly a PPV star. His skills are appreciated, but he speaks no English, currently has no real promoter and doesn't draw big crowds.

                Another example of the most skilled not being the most viewed, it happens.

                Oh, and he will school Lomachenko. Easily.

                  Can't blame him for hiding out at 122. 4 lbs north he would get stopped by Walters and outpointed by Lomachenko. Top 10 p4p doe.

                    What are you basing that on?

                      Why you overhyping Lomachenko on here who was a great amateur and whose best win is Gary ''all flash and no substance'' Russell who in truth hasn't beaten anybody worth a thing in his entire career?
