138 and that was only because their was a weight clause... And last I looked 138 is the 140lb division. He just wants to weight bully ppl. I mean he did fight 2 guys in a row at smaller weight classes

Its fun exposing these fans like exposing the hype jobs in boxing....lol

if manny is a free agent, why does he care about fighting loma, a top rank 135 pounder?

It's also a huge ask for Manny to make a 135lb limit which some would and have been asking for. I know that Loma weighed more than Rigo on the scales at every point but his weight advantage wasn't nearly as much as when he fought Salido during fight night. Rigo shouldnt've asked for that work and he wouldn't have gotten embarrassed the way that he did then fake a hand injury. If u want me to say that ur right then ur right.

Oh and it was 137 for Loma to Rigo's 130

I agree 135 is too much for manny to come down....& rigo hurt my pick for the year the way he stunk it up. Main reason I picked him was the pivot & counter I thought he was going to do against loma. Check it out in the videos.

This one starts at 2:32 and watch how he pivots then counters with the left.

Over here he pivots with loma but doesn't throw the punch....start at 8:44-round 6 with 2:05 left on the clock.

No doubt man. Rigo's pivot counter is as money as it gets and I really was hoping that fight (Rigo v Loma) was gonna be more intense but both those guys are so skilled it was never meant to be a barn burner. It would've been like FMJ vs FMJ. The Rigo fight is when I gained a lot of respect for Loma's skill set but the whole weight issue always will put an asterisk beside that win.
