Comments Thread For: Lomachenko Makes Rigondeaux Quit After Six For TKO Victory

[HI-TECH Boxing]

There is still some fights for Loma at 130. I really want that Berchelt fight. Hopefully Davis is down to fight.

Something like this:
Loma-Berchelt early next year,
Davis-Ogawa early next year,
Then winners fight each other.
That probably won't happen.

In the meantime a guy like Gamboa hopefully takes Machado's belt. I would prefer Gamboa over Machado.

I prefer to see Loma unify at 130 before going to 135. If Loma moves up to 135 next, he will probably fight Beltran next. I don't care for that fight.
Beltran may be a great win for Crawford, but I could care less if he is on Loma's resume.
If Top Rank has confidence in Verdejo they should let him fight Beltran.

Linares should be Loma's first fight at Lightweight honestly. While they build up Verdejo a little.

I've never seen Rigondeaux like this. I was very disappointed that he quit the way he did. Weight had nothing to do with it, He was completely outclassed and had zero answer for Lomachenko. Lomachenko is truly an amazing fighter. He completely mind-****ed Rigondeaux with his footwork and movement.

[Carpe Diem]

What really surprised me the most was their footwork. Rigondeaux looked like a sitting duck in comparison. Not many fighters can outshine Rigondeaux when it comes to footwork, distance, range, dictating pace, etc, but Lomachenko was just too advanced for him. Lomachenko is truly Hi-tech.

lomo should have had a point deduction or at least a hard warning for the intentional here after the bell but the ref was paid by the big nose ***

That suprised me as well??? He was litterly trying to rip Rig. arms off and didn't get a warning and then that VERY late hit after the bell not 1 warning for that either??? What was that hit like 7 seconds after the bell???

[Shadoww702]

Rigo age was clear from get-go. His reflexes and ability to throw punches was diminished, which is no surprise really, moving up two weight classes, being 37 years of age, only fighting 5 rounds in like three years, that is too much.

Even Loma admitted this much, Rigo was too small and too old.

On to Mikey Garcia.

Yeah I agree and also with the 5 rounds in 3 years...

[Shadoww702]

Where are the Rigo fans now we know who backed him to ko Loma? We know your screen names man up admit your boy quit like a pus$y

Provide links??? I don't remember seeing anyone saying Rig. by KO???

Provide links because I want to see... Also dumb *** didn't you say GGG by EASY KO??? And Canelo won't last like 5 rounds??? Man your a POS!!!

[Shadoww702]

I'm not arguing race.

Simply stating that "trying" is not the same as "being competitive". Yes Russell tried for 12 rounds but he wasn't competitive. That fight was embarrassing for him.

??? Ppl are giving credit now for a boxer taking a beating for 12 rounds??? OK... It was embarrassing to watch.

Mikey would put up a much better fight.

Mikey matches up better. Defensively Lomachenko is a wonk. Offensively he is somewhat gimmicky. In that sense he kinda reminds me of a defensive Hammed. A high output technically sound fighter like Garcia is a tough matchup stylistically.

[Shadoww702]

You just sour cuz Loma took your boy and made him embarrassed over there. LOL

Hey I still see that Salido loss on Loma's record??? Your not CRYING hard enough. I told you if you CRY and WISH hard enough it might come off his record....

[Shadoww702]

Loma will be the GOAT he make rigo look like an amateur in the ring.

And Mikey Garcia vs. Lomachenko will be Barrera/Hamed 2.0. ****y, dirty MF'er will get planted into a post just like what Barrera did to Hamed. Mikey isn't NO 48 year old, 120lb Midget.
