I am picking Rigo to win this fight clearly.
I thought Rigo had lost a step but judging from the videos of him for this training camp and his open workout he looks the same as before. The big question mark for me is his inactivity but I think he's got a great professional team behind him and they have worked on that.
Rigo is too agile and too quick for Loma to do any side stepping on him. If Loma wants to bulldoze his way in, he's got a big torso and Rigo's counters to the body are very quick. Loma gets busted up against washed up, no good fighters like Marriaga and Roman Martinez. Rigo is light years ahead of these guys and punches harder too. For Loma not to get hit, he'll have to box and Rigo will be happy with that.
Size shouldn't be a factor. Loma's got a big torso and he's been hurt to the body before, Rigo is a spectacular body puncher and that's the key.
