Comments Thread For: Lomachenko's Manager Responds Back To Team Rigondeaux

[BrometheusBob.]

Minus the old part, it's the same EXACT thing that was said about Ward when he signed to fight Kov.

Lomachenko isn't Kovalev. He's young, and is incredibly dynamic. I just can't imagine Rigondeaux making it 12 rounds with Loma.

Lets see what Rigo wants now. Better not price himself else again.

his manager just sent over his purse demand........

Why are you coming out of left field with Crawford and Mikey? Like what do any of those fighters have to with me? Are you under the impression that I am african american or something? Stop being a cornball following me around checking out my reactions. Why do you care about my replies so much?

I was just wondering why you are so negative when it comes to certain fighters.
What for instance do team Lomachenko supposed to say?
I'm in the dark myself.
So when someone calls someone's bluff, what is supposed to happen next? Do you expect them to do more? Like what?
Do fighters normally go out of their way and make the fight happen when someone calls them out?
What is the standard?

Team Rigondeux says yes to 130
Team Lomachenko says yes 130.

What's next?

Who initiates talks? Roc, Arum, who?

If Arum says no, can we hold Team Loma responsible?
I would say yes for not insisting what they want.

If the fight doesn't happen, then Loma is ducking.

Yes?

Yes.

Its about the money at this point

This is a cash out fight for Rigo win or lose imo. He keeps tweeting #SHOWMETHEMONEY He wants a big payday fight. But Arum should not be responsible for this. Rigo wants the fight Roc nation better give the money for this.

[Robi13]

Loma don't want that work! Rigo by unanimous decision all day!!!

[Mitchell Kane]

Sounds good. Let's see the fight at 130.

Yeah, that's the problem. They beg and beg, then get to be the chooser.
The call out is effing useless.
Thurman stalked the Gift, and the Gift got annoyed and finally said yes.
We never heard anything about the negotiations. The fight just happened. Not with this Cuban guy.

Minus the old part, it's the same EXACT thing that was said about Ward when he signed to fight Kov.

Kovalev is older than Ward. Otherwise, people were right. Kovalev won about 14 of the 20 rounds they fought despite getting fouled incessantly, clinched, and fatigued from cheating. He scored the only knockdown of their two fights, and dominated the early rounds of both their fights before the fouls took their toll. When both fighters were fresh, it was no contest, and Kovalev would have been much fresher in his prime compared to 34. Ward also appeared to be on major PEDs for the second fight, but still could not win without cheating. If they had fought with neutral referees and competent drug testing, the predictions of Kovalev by KO would have been spot on.

Instead Ward somehow gains almost 10 pounds of muscle in 7 months all while having huge pimples all over his back suddenly at the age of 33, as if he'd just hit puberty. I know you're not an idiot so you do the math. Argue Kovalev is also on PEDs if you want, hell you'd probably be right they probably all are, but don't argue Ward wasn't because it looked ****ing obvious. But if Kovalev was using, he definitely wasn't on that grade A American **** it looked like Ward was on that appeared so strong it put acne all over Ward's back and let him add so much muscle so fast while still making weight and without losing speed or stamina. That's some grade A ****!

At this point, thanks to his enhancements, Ward is a bigger light heavyweight than Sergey Kovalev. Is Rigondeaux going to be a bigger junior lightweight than Lomachenko? No, so you can't even compare.

PS. People were a lot more right about Kovalev doing well against Ward than all the people who picked Walters to beat Lomachenko just because Walters is black. So don't act like Lomachenko fans are always wrong, and Lomachenko haters are always right. At least when we're wrong, it's because corruption took place that changed what would have happened in the fight. With Lomachenko-Walters, the people who picked Walters were just wrong, flat out, could not have been any more wrong, and it had nothing to do with outside factors, just them being wrong. That's a lot different.

Rigo's champ at 122, Loma's champ at 130. Logical catchweight is not science nor math if uncle Bob wants the fight. Why should Loma have all the advantages? He already has the height & reach.
