ending 2017 with a **** ; LOMACHENKO-RIGONDEAUX NEARLY DONE FOR DECEMBER 9 AT MSG

[soul_survivor]

Loma wins this one. It will probably be boring with Rigo just looking to be defensive and survive down the stretch. At least Loma is fighting 3 times this year.

If true i just might have to buy tickets and fly to new york for this one

I'll believe it when I see it. I give Arum 48 hours before he's telling Karceno or some other YouTube dipsh^t Rigo wants $27M for the fight.

Hope it's true but I'll consider it click bait until someone from either side claims it.

Notice how some posters fold to now acknowledging this matchup when just last week the threshold was still, "the fight doesn't make sense."

[Elotero]

Care to back this with any source?

Any buzz anywhere else?

Watching two women wrestle in a pile of mud doesn't make sense either, but dudes still want to watch. Lol

I agree. If this fight gets made we should all applaud ourselves since hype made the fight possible. I say 30% of the board makes fights happen since Industry lurks here

Honestly, I have no idea. But I will say I never expected this fight to get made, but I'd still like to see it.

Man, this would be pure gold if it's made!! The combined skill levels these guys would bring to the fight.....

[TheBigLug]

Hope it happens.

Rigo basically said he would do it for $750k. Pay him it because they were going to give that to Salido apparently.

Beating Rigo is better for Loma's career than avenging that loss right now. I know that avenging the loss is nice but if he's beating guys as good as Rigondeaux then people will just accept even more that Salido was a tough fight for his 2nd pro fight.

The Salido fight can still happen later on anyway if they want it.
