Comments Thread For: Team Rigondeaux on Lomachenko: We're Calling Your 130 Bluff!

[Reloaded]

Question: How close to 130lb must Rigo weigh on weigh-in night, for him to be allowed to fight at 130?

Anything under 130 he can come at 110 if he wants to.

Weight classes is a upper limit not a exact point you must be at.

Man, this would be a dream fight! But I can't see Arum being enthralled about it based on Business:

1) Neither fighter is a huge draw.
2) It's not an in-house match up.

His other concerns could be:

3) Rigo potentially damaging Lomachenko's momentum. e.g. Donaire
4) Rigo stinkin' up the joint (for casual fans).

It's entirely up to him. There are no penalties going underweight.

Their is not a limit, as long as he doesn't come in over... he can come in weighing whatever he wants long as its below the 130

Let's go Rigo...

Next thing we'll hear is the Cuban who got 7 fans wants $1 mil.

and he would deserve close to that - you got chocolatito (who I love) asking for large amounts so why not Rigo for daring to be great.

Most of us are fans of the both of them regardless, because we don't let skin color dictate how we treat a fighter unlike some of the posters on this forum.

My whole point is. Y'all called Canelo a ducker being the a side and wanting ggg to fight at 155 or offer him 3-4 times his highest payday... ggg and his team declined and Canelo vacated.. Now, loma a side, and y'all think it's ok for rigo to make concessions... hypocrisy bro that's all y'all are is hypocrites

Make the match already. If Rigo team BS's on terms, Lomo move on. Were it not for the Broner/Garcia bout up coming then I would have liked to see Lomo/Garcia at 135 better than Broner/Garcia at 140.

There must be some sort of limit... I mean, they wouldn't let a 122 pounder fight at the heavyweight limit, right?

The way I see it is if these two guys fight, they would drive each other crazy in the ring with so many skills on display. I think each guy would render the other guy quite a bit less effective and the result would be a very close fight or even a draw. There would be some neutralizing going on but an entertaining fight just the same. Some serious combined ring IQ! I wouldnt bet on the winner with someone else's money, lol
