      Rigo deserves more respect that all 126 and 130 combined, he dared to be great

        lost a lot of respect for rigo. A LOT. u just dont quit like that. how can rigo hurt his hand landing only 3 punches a round??????????? this is no mas of the highest order. pathetic. and the amount of clinching was shameful. what the heck???????

        i think he needs to retire now. there is no coming back from this. take his money and live away from boxing. i know his heart never was in it.

          No, he made another ****** career move, this time by fighting a guy at too big a weight, then decided he wanted to go home after he got bullied for a little while.
          You want to add more value to Rigo now so he look like a better W for Loma.

            All loma landed was his jab, Rigo just didn't care, got his money anyway and withdrew himself.

              I don't want to add more value to Rigondeaux. I'm just a fan of Rigo, I really like the guy and feel sorry for him because he's underachiever and I'm not one of these so called fans who's going to turn his backs on him now. He was too old and rusty, that fight was too much for him

              Nobody's going to deny that Lomachenko had the weight advantage so what you're talking about? And I don't want you to give Lomachenko any credit for this win too, but some posters who said Lomachenko going to get schooled before the fight, they need to ask themselves if that win is legit or not

                Rigo's heart definitely wasn't there. Barely fired back. Something is fishy.

                  I've sparred bigger guys than me many times and the ring is the last place you want to be when you're starting to feel the size difference. Getting hurt and having nothing to keep the guy off you, that feeling of helplessness is awful. You can only thank God you've only agreed to three rounds. Rigo was starting to get bullied a little in rds 4-5-6. Only thing that can save you is a lucky punch, but for me Rigo didn't even have a puncher's chance, he doesn't have heavy hand and I've never seen Loma down or even hurt amateur or pro.

                    What... WHAT?? Over the last few days, I've had so many people arguing with me about Loma's size not being a factor so please don't tell me that people won't deny the weight advantage. That's all I've been hearing.

                    Anyway, I think Rigo, after a career of missteps, really ***ed up by agreeing to the weight, and then quit in a cowardly way. If he was truly ravaged, I understand. But, he wasn't even getting hit hard. He was just getting out worked and bullied.

                      It was disappointing. I kinda knew Rigo was gonna quit after that round. He looked frustrated and defeated.
