Comments Thread For: Rigondeaux Ready For Lomachenko at 126 or Catch-Weight

It will have happen very soon or it will never happen,my dream is they ditch the Salido rematch and Fight Rigo instead,i'm sure Vasyl would like that more because he's all about legacy and Rigo would love that fight too,these guys are ying and yang,made for each other.Maybe now that Toprank will televise on Espn it can happen

It would be great to air it on ESPN, just to stick it to HBO for tying to screw over Rigo...Although this seems like a fairly big fight that HBO would want.

Dream fight.
Two two-time Olympic champions!
Honey for eyes!

There are no excuses i mentioned,only facts.....
I favor Loma to beat Guillermo but this is a very high level fight,could go either way....

I concur. No doubt 50/50

Must see tv.....two of the highest skill fighters in this modern era going at it. Damn can't wait....make it happen Loma.

loma has a boss....you mean make it happen bob.....

Where was Rigo when Loma was at 126? Hiding out somewhere. Maybe Loma should let the fight "marinate" like a certain diva opted to do in order to stall a big fight for several years. Wonder if Loma will be given a pass too.

This should be a great fight. Skill (Rigo.) vs. speed (Loma.)

Think Rigo might actually have the speed advantage. Skill levels seem about even.

Loma needs to avenge that loss to Salido first

I don't think that's necessary. No one actually thinks Salido has a chance in a rematch. The fight with Rigo shouldn't be delayed any longer. The more time they wait, the less likely the fight becomes as Loma moves up in weight.

Nah, loma has good footwork & fast hands, Rigo probably faster at one punch at a time but loma moves & throws a lot of combos. Rigo has a higher skill level & more pop than loma too. Loma can stay busy to win on the cards. It can be a great fight, WE need to force bob's hand to make it happen.....
