The salido rematch is expired, nobody cares about that one anymore. Loma-Rigo is much more compelling

Definitely agree, but I see why Loma would want a rematch even if it'll mean less now & few fans give a f#ck. The guy has avenged his only amateur L. I'm sure he wants his story to be that he avenged all his L's when its all said & done. And that'd be a great story if thats his story at his retirement party several years from now.

Indongo is 2 belts holder and IBO belt for change above. That alone should bring 7 digits figure.
But also he is not afraid of facing Crawford which should have risen price tag to the sky.
I would ask 20 million hoping to negotiate to 15m at least. SO Indongo looks fool in my eyes if he agreed on less than 5M.

As for Rigo: he deserves 1.2-1.4m.

Please don't fuck this up, old man.

Just pay Rigo 1m and make the damn fight happen

It'd be understandable on loma's part to want the rematch, but imo it should have happened instead of the sosa or marriaga mismatches. no one asked for either of those fights. as a fan, i wouldnt mind if we get the rigo fight first this year, and then loma can get his rematch next year. unless of course he loses to rigo, which will be another L he'll wanna reverse

Rigo is just too small... from 122 to 130 is a huge step! I wanna see the fight, but I want it to be fair. At top level, weight plays a big role..

Loma doesn't use his weight/size

He won't even fight on the inside...all he does his grab and push off.

Rigo showing big heart , he is going to 130 even when he waks at 126 .
Rigondeaux will school Loma , rigo by decision.
Rigondeaux defense and power punch will be the deciding factor.
Go rigo , up to 130 since Loma doesn't want to come to 126 , show you got big heart ....

Hit and not be hit ; can not hit what you don't see .

Looks like Arum is ready to go for Salido as soon as Rigo screams, "I WANT MORE MONEEEEYYYY!!!"

Perfect excuse to make the Salido vs Loma 2 fight.
