    I'd rather have loma-walters. IMO way way way better fight, but to each his own i suppose.

        This is provided that Loma has a good workrate in the particular fight and doesn't let Rigo dictate the pace. If he is too passive, Rigo wins a close decision.
        Rigondeaux can't hurt lomachenko? So you already did the metrics on how well vl can take a punch and of course you measured the force of impact on Rigondeaux puches, right?

          It is disappointing to see great talents like Rigondeaux spend their entire careers at one weight class, especially in the lower weights where they are separated by 3 or 4 lbs. If he can "easily" make those weights as you seem to think, let's see him do it. At 34 he's running out of time to prove his greatness. Either way threads like these are meaningless so long as Rigo continues to remain at 122, while complaining that everyone is ducking him. P4p rankings even more so if that particular fighter is petrified of people 4 lbs north.
          I don't like fantasy matchups that is why I didn't vote, but to say that Rigondeaux is hiding at 122 is plain and simple clueless, he started his career at the minimum weight and gains only 2 or 3 pounds in fight night, he is not big enough to pack those extra pounds that he will need to face bigger guys, I tell you what, if they do the weight in the same night of the fight I say the Cuban will trash both of them, but it is what it is and difference in size is a little too much, and who say you can't stay at one division and still be great? Finito Lopez, Zarate, Sanchez, Gonzalez, Canto, and dozen more... By the way he is not complaining, it is a fact that st+, quigg, frapmtom and the others are ducking him, he doesn't have to move up, he is the Champ at 122 and should have bullseye on his back.

            The amount of quickness, speed, ring IQ, talent, ability and skill in this bout makes my damn mouth water.

              Lomachenko's too good of a boxer for the size disparity to not be the deciding factor.

                Easy decision. Lomachenko is too nimble. Rigo is actually very robotic.

                    Lomachenko out works Rigo enough rounds to seal the deal.
