Meanwhile Loma avoids Rigo

I didn't read the interview where Loma said rigo needs to sell more tickets or where his promoter outright said he's not ready for him yet

A so called great fighter would have immediately rematched Salido instead of letting other guys beat on him.

You must have me confused with one of his nut huggers I don't care about all of that I'm here to speak about the facts only. Facts are Davis has openly spoke about ducking Loma and Loma hasn't done the same with rigo

Damn, Dib is past it and Frenois is a Euro level fighter. Looks like it's going to be back to back easy wins for Tank. He's still really young though and this will be a mando, so nothing he can do about this one. Hopefully he is in a big fight after these 2.

What is interesting about Dib is that early in his pro career, he emulated and copied the style of Prince Naseem Hamed. And he was pretty darn good.
But then trainer Johnny Lewis came in and moulded him into a more orthodox fighter, and he began to struggle a little, often falling short when getting a crack at the title.
I believe it's quite possible that if Dib had been allowed to fight naturally, he may have had quite a bit more success. He admired Hamed so much he went and visited him very early on in his career, and spent some time with him.
It's a bit like an artist who produces unique, if unusual, unconventional work, then is told by a strict traditionalist to copy what the old master's did. It generally doesn't work.
