    Of course Rigo was too small for Loma -- especially at 130... Too small, too old... Not to mention Loma's "revolutionary style", which proved to be all wrong for the "Cuban old school"...

      Did they get video of him quitting his workouts because Rigo is most famous for quitting against Loma.

        Rigo gave 20% effort that fight but damn sure collected 100% pay. I can watch people like that at work, I dont need to watch Rigo fights to see that, no thanks, never watching a quitter fight again.

          I was utterly disgusted that night. Didn’t think Rigo would win, but the last thing I expected was that garbage he handed us. It’s 100% clear he doesn’t care what the fans think, so why should anyone care about him?

            I don't think he expected to also be out skilled. He probably felt the size difference could pose a problem, but that if he fought the most skilled fight, he could win. However, Loma's skill matched or surpassed him and that probably dejected him more than he ever expected.

            He should have kept trying thought.

                  For me was disappointing also see Rigo quitting, but for him was an smart decision. He had no chance to win this fight. He took care of him in a smart decision.
                  I like him to be a world champion again.
