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

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Vasyl Lomachenko and Guillermo Rigondeaux, both champions and two of boxing's best, were even more than that as amateurs. They were the gold standard. So a fight between them seemed natural, the first professional bout pitting fighters who each won two Olympic gold medals.

Rigo controls the center of the ring he moves when he wants to.Loma can't win a tactical fight he knows it he has to put pressure on Rigo that gives him his best chance of winning.

I can't believe this fight is actually happening

Somebody pinch me

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.

So what does that say about a fighter who can make other fighters quit and trainers throw in the towel with pity Pat punches. Sounds like one hell of a compliment.

Imo rigos best chance at winning is to fight off the backfoot. I don't see him come forward working in his favor unless he already has Loma hurt or in trouble. I've noticed that he has come forward in his most recent fights in perhaps an attempt to be more exciting but he's also been hit more than usual. He just fights better off the back foot or in the center of the ring. But he won't keep Loma center ring all night. Lomas a tricky bastard with his footwork and rigo has mastered fighting off the back foot. Movement from both fighters is going to make all the difference in this fight

It is more difficult to make a fighter quit than to KO him.
So you are actually complimenting Loma here.

Just like rigo chased you out of 126 even though he is only at 122 lol...

I don't like Loma comment i think he might be underestimating Rigo power.Plus he DONT run.I don't really ever put much weight on the tough talk fighters say before fight.But there was something that keeps popping up in my head at press con.Rigo was asked if he really believed he could win this fight and he said quik as a flash "him and forty more like him".I know like Monday follows sunday that he believes every ***en bit of it.I think ANYBODY who says i know who will win easy is lying or don't know s hite about boxing.Most people are not even gonna understand half of what there seeing.Right now I'm 51-49 right now Rigo.

True but Loma don't hit REAL hard.Really AT LEAST PFP(and maybe anyways)Rigo has the harder one punch.BOTH these guys are GREAT fighters though EASY.
