"Loma is too big for rigo" myth busted

[IFightDirty]

Landing no more than 3 punches a round has nothing to do with size. Not sure how Rigo broke his hand when all he was hitting was air. Atleast Walters was honest with his quitting.

[Robbie Barrett]

how come then donaire didnt beat rigo??? if size plays such a big factor?? donaire was 15-20 lbs heavier than rigo on fight night too. and donaire is 3-4" taller than rigo easily. hahahahahahahaha ur a real chump.

rigo said the size didnt matter. AND IT DIDNT. lomachenko jabbed rigo all night, landed at will, made rigo miss, and made him quit. end of story. deal with it punk hahahahahahaha.

Donaire was weighing 132 at 126. He was nowhere near 15-20lbs bigger at 122. Stop the bull****. Lomachenko showed he was the better fighter but trying to act like the size is irrelevant is just showing your lack of knowledge about the sport.

[Robbie Barrett]

Move along dumbass.

What's funny is you're the dumbass here, but don't know it.

Watching this fight Loma simply outclassed Rigo through skill - size was never a factor in the win. Rigo shouldn't lose credit for being brave and going up, but Loma put on a masterclass.

This wasn't a GGG vs Brooks scenario where Brooks arguably outboxed GGG but lost because the bigger, powerful puncher used his size to bully him. This was a mostly centre of the ring chess match where Loma consistently outpointed Rigo.

Respect to both, Loma is now my p4p#1 after that performance and I wish Rigo the best in his division and hope he can earn some more money before his career is over, he has earned it.

This was like Durans No Mas

donaire was a huge super bantam. what the heck are u talking about?? coward donaire went up huge in weight on fight night. and he is 5'7" easily. pls get ur facts straight. point is donaire got completely clowned by rigo not because of size but because of skill. do u understand????

same situation with tonight. loma used PURE SKILL TO OUTCLASS RIGO.

[Krucial]

Okay, now I know these excuses will come in but listen weight wasn't the issue here. We've seen many fights in the past where someone was outweighed by 20 pounds or more on fight night and they were able to win. Loma won this fight with hand speed, foot speed, and using the right angles with perfect distance which has nothing to do with weighing more than a fighter. It's not like loma was putting rigo on the ropes, putting his body on him, and just hitting him using his size advantage. He literally out skilled him which was crazy. Loma is #1 right now.

good point.
rigo ****ed up by ducking to his left and staying there, he couldnt avoid being hit

"I know more boxing than you but instead of dis*****g what you say, I'm just going to say you don't know anything cus I clearly don't know how to dispute what you are saying."

[Redd Foxx]

Dude, be happy with the win but this thread is ******ed. I knew Loma would win but no one expected Rigo to look THAT much smaller. He was dwarfed.
This is a childish way of being a fan.

Dispute what I am saying then instead of calling it ******. How about that? Have we seen fighters before who were shorter than their opponent and win? Yes. Have we seen fighters being outweighed way more than their opponent and win? Yes. Surely Rigo being as skilled as he is would have to overcome those obstacles as well and win but he didn't. What makes this fight so different than the others? Just cus you don't like results?
