    Will Lomachenko respond to Rigo?

    Why is he so silent?

    A) They're working out a deal behind the scenes

    B) Arum is telling him to not say anything in an attempt to save some face when the fight doesn't get made

    From Rigo's Twitter:

    Guillermo Rigondeaux‏Verified account @RigoElChacal305

    Apparently that #hightech gear got a viruse or was hacked byD Russians because even after me saying yes2 130lb is not responding! #oldschool

    Will Rigo price himself out? That's the question everyone needs to know the answer to.

    Cause Loma has a date, he'll fight him... the question is will Rigo price himself out?

        Loma has yet to say he'll fight him.. Which needs to happen before even the money talk starts

          There's not that much time if they are to fight in August. Plus this fight has been brewing for a while... What if Loma doesn't fight Rigo in August and then decides to jump up to 135 for his next... The fight will never get to materialize then.

          Rigo is willing to both:

          1) Fight on short notice

          2) Fight with a severe weight disadvantage

          And still, Arum is afraid Rigo will derail the Loma train.

              Lom agreed to everything in 2015, including the money, so I suspect the fight may happen. Give it a minute or two, geez.

                I'm picking a majority draw if this fight happens.

                  I hope they can come to an agreement on the weight and the money. They are two of the best fighters in the world but I doubt they will ever fight each other. They are different weights. I don't believe Rigo will agree to fight at 130. I think that was just talk. Rigo never agreed to fight anyone an ounce over 122 for years. Now he is going to 130 to fight Loma?

                    Dgood news is that I am ready to fight in August. The bad news is that not even agreeing to 130lb give them d necessary confidence 2fight me
                    Still nothing from Loma's camp. They're not even saying their trying to make the fight or that they're interested. What gives? Not much time until August.
