has a fan base ever lost faith in a fighter so quickly after the fight was signed?
it wasnt so long ago i did a thread saying he shouldnt be rated so high p4p cause he hasnt done anything in years and only has 1 top win, and i got absolutely slaughtered. People saying its clear he deserves it cause of the eye test, he may be the most talented boxer in the sport, DramaShows a clown etc. Thats fair enough but whys noone picking him to win? The only threads im seeing are obvious troll threads like the one calling loma fans members of the kkk lol
So whats changed? Fast forward a few months and it seems as if hes gone from elite level, p4p top 3 (some even had him number 1) fighter to a fighter whos washed up and seen better days. Hes 37 but thats besides the point if people were still considering him elite a few months ago and saying hed beat lomachenko.
I cant be the only one whos noticed this? It seems to have gone from people saying rigo will school loma to damage control, people moaning about weight, hes too old etc as if hes just suddenly turned from 30 to 37 and managed to manipulate time.
Yeah the weight puts rigo at a slight disadvantage but tough **** really, its only a few pounds, if hes as good as people say he is and with his style he should be able to still outbox someone a few pounds heavier. Its probably a topic for another thread but christ a small amount of weight difference gets exaggerated on this site.
So why the lack of confidence? To be honest im a lomachenko fan but even i think hes getting overrated, hes not superman. Should show some faith in your man instead of jumping ship as soon as he gets tested.
