    Comments Thread For: Team Lomachenko To Rigondeaux: 126 or No Fight

    Last week Egis Klimas, the manager of WBO featherweight champion Vasyl Lomachenko, expressed an interested in consummating a bout against Guillermo Rigondeaux, but made it clear that it would have to be at the featherweight limit - not a catch-weight contest.

    There are statements from Rigondeaux's side that they have accepted the challenge for a fight at 124-pounds.

    Make it 124 but no rehydration clause. That would be meeting in the middle.

      126 with rehydration clause. Wouldn't want him to be 10-12 pounds heavier. Right loma fans?

          That's what I'm talking about. Fuc* this diva shi*.

          I like Lomachenko. Dude just wants to be the best. 5 fights in and has a resume better than most title holders and is now challenging a top p4p fighter in his 6th fight.

          I wish everybody had this dude's attitude.

              Can't be mad at Team Loma standing their ground on the catchweight. Good on them.

              Rigo is one of my guys, but that 124 with the re-hydtaion stip was clown shit.

                  Yep. Catchweights are for guys not confident in their ability to beat other fighters. In other words, catchweights are terrible for boxing.


                  Loma is ready, Rigo is making excuses and looking for all kinds of way to get an advantage. I will call it a duck SINCE he has absolutely no one to fight at 122 and he's absolutely irrelevant. Fighting Loma would be a career payday and would be one of the only realistic fights that could be a "legacy" fight for him..... Ya'know, since his career consists of fighting Nonito Donaire and nobody else.


                  Rigo needs Loma. But the fight will not happen because Rigo is not ready for the challenge. IMHO

                    If someone is P4P one of the best, then they should be able to move up. Loma hasn't even had that many pro fights. Rigo could beat him
