Comments Thread For: Lomachenko vs. Rigondeaux Finalized For December 9

[Tomasio]

Rigo is a small fighter even at his weight class, so If this fight was at super batamweight (122lbs) or at featherweight(126lbs) then it would have been more competitive, but at jr lightweight (130lbs) which is 2 categories up for Rigo, I think is too much for him & all the advantage is for Loma..

Will any of the lil g whiners say a peep when Rigo is "outweighed by 20 pounds"?

[Fabes88]

rigo ain't no myth, but 130 lbs will be too much for him vs a guy that is equally as good as he.

Agreed. That's why I've never wanted to see this fight would much rather see loma face tank

[Jedi Vader]

Well, bugger me with a fish fork!

Kudos to those concerned!

Yes, Captain Blackadder!!

[Straightener]

Loma isn't on another level than Rigo. I'm not even sure Loma is on Rigo's level.

Honestly don't think we've seen the best of Lomo yet

I'll be rooting for rigo but I can't see him winning

[TexasCowBoy]

i thought weight didn't matter, age didn't matter, Rigo breaks jaws. Loma is running, no way arum will let Loma fight Rigo. Now that the fight is finalized everyone here makes sound logical arguments.

Great Post.....the boringdeaux apologists are out in full force

[MDPopescu]

... as many here said it already: Rigo is too small at 130...

6 of the top 10 fighters on the planet have or will fight each other this year...

Canelo-GGG
Rigo-Lomachenko

If he wins this fight it will make Rigo one of the greatest little guys ever. Obviously he believes he can win, I don't think Rigo would take this fight if he didn't think that. But it's a huge jump in weight. Easier for defensive fighters than offensive one, but it still gives Loma way more options that he usually would have, and Loma knows how to use his options.

YES! This is a great fight!
