Comments Thread For: Lomachenko: You Know Rigondeaux's Style, I Need To Chase Him

I heard something about that what gloves are Rigo wearing

We'll peep that out during fight night....he usually wears grant gloves.

Now that the weigh-in is over I here a lot of people giving respect for both fighter & I also here a good handful of people cheering Rigo, Rigo, Rigo! Lomo boys are kinda quiet, maybe they don't want to jinx it? Lol

It reminds me of Duran vs Leonard.

Leonard the betting favorite, Duran the "old guy" moving up 2 weight classes, with unshakable belief.

One important difference: Duran actually fought a few bouts at welterweight before taking on Leonard. Rigo is going in “cold.” But yeah, it is reminiscent.

Funny how these writers act as if Loma's pity pat is actually knocking these fighters out. Marriaga, and Walters quit, Sosa's corner threw in the towel, and the other guy was weight drained and got KO'd.

Walters quit because he was frustrated. Rigo will be the one going the frustrating tomorrow..

Difference between these two guys is Rigo is a counter puncher who's going to try and catch Loma. Loma is constantly a busy fighter who makes things happened. Loma fights 100% of each round. That's why Loma will win! Rigo will wait around for an opening while Loma will make the fight happened.

First time I ever seen a fighter who wasn't hurt quit, because he was frustrated! Good excuse though! What chumps (corner, fighter, and anyone who even mentions it as a knock against Loma). Loma will win, but I'm sure someone will find a way to make it a negative (excuse) against him.

Activity level is one of the things that have Rigo fans concerned. But I’ll say this, I sincerely doubt Guillermo will allow himself to be outworked tomorrow night. I was quite surprised during the first four rounds of the Donaire fight, where Rigo fought out of character. He mixed it up with Nonito and got the better of it. He then went into more of his usual mode and slowed the pace, once he had four rounds under his belt. Unless “El Chacal” is too old and rusty, I expect him to pour it on early tomorrow. He knows what’s at stake.

That probably factored in to Duran saying Rigo would win.
