            I love loma and I always gave him his props, but when people start saying he would beat pac at 140 and that he's a better boxer than floyd, that when we have to start hitting the brake on the hype bus lol

              Loma is a better version of rigo, younger, stronger, bigger, more weapons and way much smarter.

                Sure now that it's been a while you could say Rigo is rated too highly on p4p lists, but I think his placement on the list for a while after the Donaire win was very appropriate given the significance and convincing nature of the win.

                Rigondeaux has the better single win but Lomachenko has a better resume I'd say.

                But I think skillwise Rigondeaux is better.
                I agree w/ the bold at least. Lomachenko should be (and is) rated higher than Rigo right now.

He's been in these mythical p4p rankings for years despite a string of mediocre wins against meh opponents. Meanwhile Lomachenko has completely destroyed world class opponents such as Russell Jr and Walters, not just beat but utterly decimated.

                  And these same people say he doesn't deserve to be ranked p4p?? Yet they had Rigo in their top 5 p4p for what reason exactly? One great win and passing the "eye test" .
                  Can Gary Russell Jr. beat nonito? Does Lomachenko has a loss?? That just might make them even.

                    Donaire is a good win, not a great win. Rigo is a ****ing glass chin bum. That's why he fights domestically overseas. That China chin can't hold up at the highest level. Everyone knows that.

                      You know you're sporting a Gamboa avatar and talking about glass chins right? Rigo has been dropped by bums... defensive genius doe.
