Comments Thread For: Rigondeaux: WBA Wouldn't Do This to Canelo, Floyd, Joshua, GGG

Da*** you talking about?

He's moving up 8 pounds, because that's the weight where Lomachenko is.

He's obviously not big for the weight. He's 5'4, and has been a 122 pounder his whole pro career, and often comes in under weight.

He's a god damned cheater and the only belt he should be wearing is around his neck.

Is anyone surprised? Very little of what the WBA makes sense.

I'd be shocked if they found a way NOT to **** things up.

Nonetheless, if Rigo puts on a good showing - win or lose - against Loma, he should set himself up for brighter prospects than defending a joke of a belt.

[KingTito]

It's utter nonsense, but I'm not surprised.

WBA are suckers for this. Truth is they don't want Rigo representing their belt. If Rigo wins he should just burn their belt n video tape that ****.

These sanctioning bodies make so many accommodations that make no sense. Now Rigo is being penalized for taking a big step up in weight class against Loma. Sure they can say that him moving creates uncertainty for the title at that weight, but these people will literally create new titles named after minerals and colors just to get sanctioning fees or hold a belt for a big name. Money talks.

As far as I am concerned, Rigo beating Loma may speak more volumes than holding that WBA title.

Very well said hit on every point I would have said!

Hes moving up 2 weight classes to fight for another organizations title. What can he expect? He wins hes not coming back to 122, to much $ at 130 to go back down.

how about some respect, and to be treated as a champion ?

btw, you missed the point

the WBA said..... IF Rigo wins, he has 5 days to inform them of his intentions..... but IF he loses, then he gets stripped

the result of that fight should have no bearing on his status at 122..... the WBA are even willing to give him a pass should be win

but they know that he is up against it with Loma, they just want to get rid of him

Rigo should not be penalized for reaching for greatness

while you guys continue to agree with these asshat decisions, the WBA will continue to feel justified in making them

[aboutfkntime]

But he only gets stripped if he loses.

Which is what's fucked up about it.

As, should he lose, he'd likely want to move back down to defend his title. Now he can't. Instead, he has to get back in line, presumably.

It's essentially robbing him, because a world title reign is a very valuable thing.

exactly !!

[aboutfkntime]

In order words, as far as the WBA is concerned , damn if Rigo wins and damn if he loses.

I guess they can do whatever they want since it appears they are not answerable to no one!!!
No wonder this "sport" is so corrupt.

they know that he is up against it with Loma

but, they still left the door open in case he pulls it off

the WBA are dog-shht, just like the others

[aboutfkntime]

He should be stripped already. If he's moving up 2 weight classes for a fight then he's obviously way too big for the division and basically cheating by fighting small soft touches. Moving up to get KOd by Chenko is basically selling his title, his record and missing the weight by 10-15 pounds. Strip his ass.

just wow..... you opened your ****-warmer, you said something ******, and then you suggested something that is terrible for boxing.....

wow

you wouldn't know a good fighter if he punched you in the face..... you casual-fan turd lol

Rigo is reaching for greatness, but somehow that idiot fcukboy cipher decided to accuse him of cheating

typical ******ity from that casual-fan loser
