If Rigo is a great win for Loma, why is Floyd not given credit for Jmm?

    I do give him credit for a great win over Marquez. He won every round by a mile over a skilled boxer-puncher. Floyd was bigger but he didn't use his size and strength to win that fight. He won with speed, skill, timing accuracy and ring smarts. He should have made the weight limit of 144 pounds though.

      The weight limit was 147.

      144 was the agreed limit.

        JMM had some big wins at WW

        Rigo can't do **** at 130
        Be thankful Loma-Rigo took place this year. These two are still relevant. Not anybody's fault it didn't happen at 126 lbs.

        Crybaby had zero wins above 135 lbs pre- the Money May bout. He was fat & slow.

          If Loma beats the Rungvisai-Estrada winner he is officially TBE.

              Jmm was closer in size to Mayweather than Rigo was to Loma. JMM weighed mid 140s at 130 and Mayweather weighs around 150 in the ring, Rigo weighed 130 the day of the fight with his clothes on. JMM was higher ranked on every P4P list than Rigo was.


              JMM = greater win. FACTS
