    You guy and your 'weight difference' talks. It's as inconsequential as MotoryCity Cobra giving me a fake number because he was scared I'd call.

      Wow! Some really dumb posts in here, but it's hardly surprising.

        I just heard on another thread that Rigo weighed 130 this morning while Loma weighed 137. I was wrong about the weight difference being too small to matter. Loma will out weigh Rigo in the ring by this same 7 pounds or more. That is enough of a weight advantage to help Loma. I have always picked Loma to win this great fight and I still do.

A guy broke it down by percentage and it was actually a bigger weight jump from welter to super welter
          It's true, that's why I feel Roy Jones' run to heavyweight is far greater than Pacquiao's 8 division run

                There's no point they don't understand.

                That's not even taking into account re-hydration either.

                  Fighters move up in weight, stop acting like the jump from 122-130 is more significant than what Floyd and pac did throughout their career moving from 140-154.

                  Maybe Rigo was not challenging himself at 122 and could fight at 130 more comfortably his whole career

                  Khan and Brook? Arhur abraham was a 160 pound fighter, seemed to do fine at 168, had a decent career

                  Even julio chavez Jr moved up to light heavyweight to fight fonfara when he was fighting most of his fights at 160.

                  You guys are placing way to much significance on this.

                  You're clearly getting your excuse box prepared. Make sure to pack the toilet paper and tampons in that box as well, you'll need them

                    Why are you rambling I asked a simple question. I'm guessing you can't give any examples? You're trying way too hard. Even mentioning Julio lmao. He's one of the biggest weight drainers in history

                    Btw I said over a year ago that loma is too big for rigo

                      judging by that video, Rigo hasn't rehydrated a lick. Anyone thinks that Loma will rehydrate more leading up to the fight?
