Comments Thread For: Lomachenko: I'm Ready To Fight Guillermo Rigondeaux Next!

[richardt]

He's been ready for Rigondeaux for a couple years now.

Exactly.....like I told the guy, he must have been only reading the headline and not the article or have knowledge of the past negotiations.

I still want him to fight the winner of Berchelt and Corrales too

You're only reading the headline. They tried to negotiate in 2015 which is well documented. He said he is ready to fight Rigo next, not the he is finally ready for the first time.

No, I read it correctly. He could have fought him NEXT but he's fighting someone else. I think he can beat Rigondeaux but he doesn't act like he's confident he can.

"Next" is used in context. If a fighter has a signed fight, next means after that, not before that. Kind of like if on last Wednesday I said next Saturday I will go out to dinner it means the following Saturday, not this Saturday. But again, it didnt take him this long as you suggested. He was ready in 2015. Anyway....

Rigondeaux is undefeated. Lomachenko isnt. Nuff said

Rigo and his team are full of sh|t. Klimas has been telling him for 2 weeks now to get a hold of Arum, and he still has not done it. It is all fake twitter promotion.

See this is the perfect example of the damage Floyd has done to the sport. ^^^

Cringe worthy.

Forget context. If he wants to fight him then fight. As good as Lomachenko is he should be willing to fight anyone, anytime. I don't expect to hear "business talk" when it's convenient because it doesn't take him that long to fight people that have no hope of beating him.

You are aware it takes 2 to tango right? Well how come Rigos team have not made any attempt to actually make the fight?

You're right it takes 2. They're both doing the same thing but you're putting it all on Rigondeaux because he hasn't reached out. They're both trying to make this a PR battle rather than sitting down and negotiating. Lomachenko has an entire network behind him, a proven promoter with a long history of making fights, but I get it. It's all Rigondeaux's fault
