No announcement yet.
If Rigo is a great win for Loma, why is Floyd not given credit for Jmm?

Big Deal.
Floyd was coming off a long layoff when he fought a smaller guy.
Loma was not coming off a layoff when he fought a smaller fighter.
JMM raised hell when he moved up to 147
What can Rigo raise at 130?
NOTHING that's what.
A long lay off where he was in the gym everyday putting on size.
Why couldn't Floyd take Marquez's soul?
He even cheated him on the scales and still couldn't do it?
Was this Floyd's 11th pro bout?

For Marquez vs Floyd, the best you got was that Marquez could put in a good performance.
The fans were calling for Rigo vs Loma.
People wanted to fight Pacquiao, Mosley or Cotto. Marquez was not even on the top 20 fighters that people thought Mayweather should fight.
Cherry pick of the highest order.

More than a few people did. I thought Loma would win, maybe on points maybe a late KO.
Didn't expect an absolute schooling

What noise can Rigo make at Superfeather??
Let's see if Rigo can put a top guy at 130 on his face for 5 minutes.
You know.
Like JMM did at 147

You know.Like JMM did
What he did in the future is irrelevant though.
The Pacquiao that first fight Morales doesn't beat Cotto. And if Bradely would have beat that Pacquiao he wouldn't have got much credit.
At the time, Marquez was no welterweight, not even a light-welter.
And Made noise? he fought Pacquiao and Bradley, both small at welter.
But from your position, you do have to reach.
