I mean he should! On paper it looks like a mismatch; It's a David vs Goliath type of bout. Where Loma is Goliath and Rigo is David.
That's why he's the easy favorite to win in this match up. I mean Loma is naturally wider and stronger than Rigo and punches harder. In addition, he has dropped and stopped men who were a lot younger and athletic than Guillermo.
The only major discrepancy I see between the two is that Loma is the easier to hit whereas Rigo is not. Loma has the greater work rate and is naturally the busier of the two fighters.
While Rigo on the other hand is the more accurate counter puncher of the two with a much lower work rate and a more deliberate and cautious pace who likes to pick and choose his punches/shots very wisely.
The question is, can Loma superimpose his size and land at will on Rigo? If he can then it's a wrap but if he can't than he is going to be in whole world of trouble because "The Jackal's" counters will pick him apart.Comment

Ultimately this fight is going to come down to skill and not size. It's skills which pays the bills.Comment
