Comments Thread For: Arum: Lomachenko Will Make Rigondeaux Fight, Can't Coast Again

[rrayvez]

So Rigo is not pound for pound? He is fighting a top pound for pound Dec 9. I never said he was the greatest boxer of all, I said he can be. Learn to read.

damn, can you read? I clearly stated that you referred to him as someone who WILL be the best boxer ever (which you did say), not that he was already there. And yes, rigo is the first fighter on the pound for pound list he's facing and rigo is moving up 2 weight classes to make it happen and has only fought 3 rounds in the past yr and a half. You better hope Loma makes it look easy because if not, he'll be exposed as the white European hype many believe he really is.

U must know more than the people who make the pound for pound list. Boxrec, ESPN, Ring. Loma is on it and there is nothing u or Salido can do.

I didn't say he's not a P4P fighter. The claim was, if I got it right, that Lomachenko is the best boxer right now. I don't think so. I like Loma, but he isn't the best boxer in the world right now.

Certainly top 10.

lol most people claim donaire was overrated. walters beat him easier.

If most people say that then most people are wrong.There always guys after a guy losses who s hite on them(******).And Walters is/was very good fighter who was MUCH bigger then donaire and ND was past his best.That was 5th div for ND.Four if you you don't count fly(where he was champ but was killing himself makin weight.

Chenko is the #1 Pound for Pound Fighter in The World

yeah, Loma also turned pro when he was past his mid twenties with about 400 amateur fights while everyone else turned pro at a much younger age with many less amateur fights. If you compare age, it's not like Loma was that far ahead of any other star. The fact that you consider him to be someone that will go down as the best boxer ever when his record is 9-1 and he's never beaten anyone else near the top 10 of any pound for pound list just shows that you are officially a fan girl groupie type of fan. It'll be interesting to see what you have to say should a much smaller rigo beat him.

Let me come back after the fight if Loma wins with your words.

Against my best judgement, I am picking Rigo. He seems to fight at his opponent's level which would be dangerous. Styles.....
