Just making sure i get the narrative correct. Salido coming in overweight made a difference in his fight against Loma but Rigo going up 2 weight classes didn't. That's the memo. Memorize it
Salido missing weight made a difference but Rigo moving up 2 didn't?

****** fanboys. They don't realise how ****** they look. We have weight divisions for a reason, but they want to act like weight doesn't matter even when the fighter himself acknowledges that it did.

Both Salido win over Lomachenko and Lomachenko win over Rigo are not legit then? OkayComment

Keep that salt flowing!
Loma completely outclassed Rigo. Accept it and move on.Comment

Different style of fight though. Salido's style makes coming in overweight more of an advantage than Loma's because he's going to get inside and try to rough the other fighter up.
The only thing Loma's side advantage helped him in this fight was breaking away from Rigo holding onto him. Maybe if he was weaker, Rigo would've been able to hold onto to him for the entire fight.Comment

Fight could have happened at 122, 126, or 130. It wouldn't have made a difference. The level in skill was too apparent. Loma would have made him look like an amateur at any weight or time. It's a testament to just how good Lomachenko is, given that Rigo is an elite boxer.Comment
