    Didn’t really name anyone. So no point trying to bait or put words in his mouth.

      What's GGG's signature win? A blown up welterweight.

      Tank Davis has NEVER been called a "boogieman" nor is he widely supported by people. You see the media saying Loma beats everyone, largely because he made Rigo quit. What's that saying? Loma can drag a guy up multiple weight divisions and get a win, and get praised, but when Floyd does it, it's wrong.

      Loma has one of the best resumes in 12 fights in boxing. he himself doesn't count the Rigo fight and it only got made because of the idiot fanboys who thought Rigo had a chance. Want me to post all the videos of the degenerates Loma skin color haters who picked Rigo and was leading the charge. Rigo " the jawbreaker" "if marriaga did that to Loma face imagine what Rigo gonna do". Then the funniest after the fight "its rigged Bob paid Rigo to quit just like Walters" "isn't it su****ions how all these guys are quitting when they not even taking damage".

        Some people had him p4p number 1 lol, now its been relegated to them mediocre win. Lots of people picked rigo as u said, and i didnt see anything kn that fight that would suggest if it was at a lower weight rigo would suddenly have outboxed him. He was outclassed, badly.

          I think Golovkin's win over Jacobs is better than Brook given that he was a top middleweight too and a better fighter.

          People like you picked Rigo but not sure that's his signature win. I personally feel the Linares, Russell and Walters ones are bigger/better wins.

          What's Mayweather's "signature win"? Marquez who was a featherweight at 33 or Pacquaio who first won a title at flyweight?

              Truth. NOBODY except for 'Rigo fans' wanted Loma vs Rigo. They wanted a p4p black hope to teach dat whiteboi a lesson after he whipped GRJ and Walters, which were both hyped to the heavens.

              Strangest revisionist history I've seen since the flying purramidz and Kangz shyt.

                Because when it was supposed to happen Loma wouldn’t have had such a huge weight advantage which would give the older and smaller Rigo a better chance. Then Arum stalled the fight ( with BS options on his future fights, something that Rigo didn’t want)and made sure Loma had even more size advantage.

                Loma is very skilled but it’s disingenuous to act like the weight is a factor in every other fight except that one.

                  Yeah, I saw a lot of "size won't matter skills do" type comments and threads which surprised me as I thought they'd at least leave in a built in excuse.

                  The funny thing is the fight was entirely a skill fight too Loma didn't try and use physicality once.

                    No one knows who he hes talking about. But def not Loma since he did interviews past and never said a bad word about him. Especially now he works with ESPN so some would say he part of the "biased espn crew" that consistently praises him.

                      Yeah pretty much, although apparantly if it was held a few lbs lower rigo would have 'schooled that ass'.
