Rigo was never a 50/50 he was a 3/1 underdog and many was saying he was too small prior including Loma himself.
Neither is this fight vs some 15 fight novice a 50/50 stop making your own narrative up and running with it.
Loma can't even wipe his own a55 (probably because you guys constantly are for him with your tongues) without you guys acting like its some incredible feat and demanding everyone praises him for it. Its embarrassing.Comment

How about a narrative of STFU and quit insulting a good poster who is green not red like yourself. It's fine for you to make 10 threads a day about the wonderfulness of Canelo while trashing the hell out of all the good champs you hate like Loma,GGG,the Charlos, Spence, Bivol and Plant. Then when someone sticks up for Loma you go on the attack and call them ******. You are the ****** one you phony hypocrite. Are you mad that Loma has a huge fight coming up while the only fight your beloved Canelo has coming for a long time is in court? Don't cry. Have .funna.

Boxing fans are some of the worst. They make every excuse why a fighter (in most cases they like) lost, except for the other guy is just a better fighter. I personally give Loma credit for beating Rigo. I picked Rigo to win, I admit I didn't do my full due diligence but I have to keep the same energy regardless. So credit Loma for proving what I thought at that time false. That was the 1st & maybe only time 2 boxing gold medal winners fought professionally.
Unless you're someone who was hellbent on it being a mismatch from the beginning & even then Loma should still be given credit. Yes Rigondeaux was a smaller fighter but he was also undefeated & unequivocally the most skilled fighter Lomachenko had fought at that time & maybe even still right now! Loma didn't beat him by brute force or utilizating his side advantage at any point in the fight. He literally out skilled him & made the guy who was begging for the fight running his translators fingers all on IG, quit! It's not just about "who you beat" (which is overrated in itself), or just winning, but how you beat them!
Now onto Teofimo. I believe Teofimo would beat everybody on Loma's resume & vice versa. So to me they're the best opponent each other is going to face at this current time. With that said I don't believe this is a 50-50 fight. I believe Teofimo has a punchers chance & if he doesn't stop him, he won't win.
Loma will get credit from me because this is a meaningful fight. It's a unification, neither fighter imo again has beat anyone that the other can't beat. Loma is in his 3rd weight class fighting a naturally bigger guy. If Loma hadn't fought Teofimo they would have complained & gave him even less credit for the guy he was rumored to fight had this fight not been made. So how is the same fight that ppl are saying is FOTY (not my opinion it's the opinion of "them" which is louder than mine because I'm the minority they're the majority) going to receive one way credit? That shět don't even make any sense.
They have the same number of professional fights & as a professional fighter Teofimo doesn't know how to lose. We can't say the same about the guy who a group of ppl are prepared to not give credit too, should he win. Let's talk about why Lomachenko wouldn't be given credit?.... You can't say because has fought better opposition professionally without acknowledging he's at a disadvantage at the weight class he's fighting in. If the scales are tipped in 1 aspect the overall playing field levels itself out when you're objective & can assess the scenario accurately.
The crazy thing ppl wanna say Teofimo is green right, the same guy who's essentially been begging to fight Loma. So should 32 Y.O. Loma wait idk let's say 3 years until Teofimo is 26, which would not only make Loma 35 but Teofimo a 140lber, is that a "fair fight" then? SRL was ages 23-25 when he fought Benitez, Duran, & Hearns who were all except Duran was in their normal weight class! & the most ironic shět is, in that span Duran was the only one who beat him!
What are they gonna say? Loma's amateur pedigree? Teofimo was a top amateur as well. If ppl are gonna say well he wasn't the amateur Loma was, well who is/was!? Going 400-1 in the amateurs isn't just about experience. Don't get me wrong it matters, especially at a point he was a grown man fighting teenagers but there's plenty of instances where you can name a fighter fighting better opposition who lost to a fighter who didn't. Loma performed how he did in part if not more because he was better, point blank period. With that said Loma will not only get credit from me for beating Teofimo but will receive the most credit out of any opponent he has fought professional to date!Comment

- -Rigormortis knocked down by a transitioning mgr/trainer Donaire twice has a poor record of wins since, esp since he ducked the rematch.
He don't fancy hard fights and basically had to crawl back to a
Arum to pay off his minders who were in the red after buying out Arum.
Just da fax!!!Comment

I will give him full credit for beating a young monster in his early prime. Lopez is the number one challenger for Loma by Ring and all other ranking places. Lopez just won a world title with a spectacular knockout. Loma is a natural 126 or 130 pound boxer fighting well above his best weight against a very good hard punching bigger man. Anyone who does not give him good credit if he beat Lopez is not paying attention to what Lopez has already done.Comment

When you are hyped up to be the best in the world (not even close IMO), you are held to a much higher standard. Fighting a kid with 15 fights, who had done nothing (Commey was a bum), and crying for credit in the event of a win, is dishonest and distasteful. It's not like he's fighting an elite vet with 50 fights.
Because of that overhype without substance, I'll give him ZERO credit.Comment

^^^Yet continues to hype Tank up to the ****ing moon. I don't get it.Comment

^^He'll get a huge credit from me if he comes close to beating Davis. Stop crying. In the meantime, I'll just wait till he steps up his competition. Davis is fighting someone more accomplished than Lopez next.
