    Well hes just telling the truth, he expected to dominate him and he did just that. Its just funny because the NSB black panther crew was hyping rigo just becuase of race he put on an embarassing performance.

      Props to Loma for acknowledging what every sensible fan knows. Sad that Lomachenko fans are trying to argue size doesn't make a difference.

        he kept declining that victory crown from his team too

        loma outboxes you and makes you give up then expresses excessive sportsmanlike pity afterwards because you never had a chance

        damn that a GOAT

          Perfect comparison, both times the bigger guy used pure skill to beat the opponent.

              I think the manner in which he won was sublimely impressive. I consider this win the same way I consider Floyd beating Marquez.

                Please explain?

                Loma out-skilled the smaller man, the guy who was supposed to be faster. Loma was being humble, Rigo said the weight DIDN'T play a factor so the point is moot - all we have to go by is the video evidence, and if you watched the fight (I did on a nice 55inch screen) then you'd clearly see the SKILL gap.

                    I like to see Loma against Mikey and Crawford. The guy is pretty good. Let's test it to the limit.

                      It's a big win. Lomachenko is a bad man, that was ridiculously easy. Too easy to brush aside as not a big deal.

                      I'd still pick Rigo to beat other quality fighters despite that showing.
                      I agree, the size mattered, but Lomachenko really put his skill on display.

                      I felt like Loma really gave Rigo a lot of respect and didn't really want to hurt him.

                      He really could have started to put in a beating on Rigo if he want to.
