    Not as if it was some masterclass or beating was it? 6 rounds of neither landing a punch.
    Rigondeaux got an absolute boxing lesson from Lomachenko and then decided to quit because he couldnt take the embarassment anymore...it was literally the ultimate compliment to Loma's skills

    Coming from someone who rooted for Rigo..you should accept reality man

        one guy was literally ducking his head to the ground like a novice. he he'd stood and fought, or even tried to box like a professional he'd have gotten his ass kicked. as it was he was hitting nothing and getting countered for it.

        don't make that fight out to be something it wasn't. lomachenko had no problems hitting rigoneaux when his head wasn't six inches off f the ground and face down, he made the guy f#cking quit.


        very skilled amateur and a woulda coulda type fighter with one fantastic win. he could have been so much more, adn that starts with not stinking the joint out and modifying your style to do damage and be a professional.

          like a lot of cubans i expect that he's a lot older than he claims to be. he's on the back nine of his 30's even if you believe his birth certificate. i know a lot of you don't watch enough bxing or have not seen enough generations of fighters to understand this, but small fighters peak quickly in life and are used up by the time they're in their 30's. it's bigger men, who rely more on punches and chins, who typically fight late effectively and can modify their styles once their legs go. they weren't on their toes to begin with!
