Comments Thread For: Lomachenko-Rigondeaux Close For December 9 on ESPN

[zoken]

Both Russell and Walters were class b minus at best. Nobody considered Russell even top 10 pound for pound when Loma fought him, and Walters had only one good name on his resume which was nonito donaire, and on top of that he had been off for a full year and came back to fight Loma...so the only real legitimate opponent Loma fought was salido, and he lost.. case closed, I don't lack objectivity , im just not another fanboy like the rest of people here

Obviously you are not a fan of Loma. There's no need for me to go back and forth with you. But there is a reason why so many people including boxing experts think highly of him. Just name one fighter that has or had a better resume in his first 10 fights.

You do realized that he has 6 fights on the wsb before his other 10. Not only did he fought under professional rules but he got paid for it. Which make him a professional boxer. Don't know why ppl keep insisting his fight with salido was the first.

Funny to see all the backtracking on this fight now. A week ago Lomachenko was scared and would get destroyed at any weight by Rigo. Now Rigo has aged faster than a goldfish and it's not a fair fight because Loma will win easy? Why is that?

Reminds me of how Loma was ducking Walters because he'd get destroyed and then all the excuses came out left, right and center on that one.

Children aren't great at discussing Boxing.

They've got their fighter's d1cks up their mouths so hard, they can't spew facts.

Rocky Balboa is in the boxing HOF. Just saying.

Not for fighting, but for promoting the sport. There's no dis*****g that the Rocky films brought almost more attention to the sport than the actual fights themselves.

I'm Rigondeaux fan. Still very intrigued by this match up
