    If that in some way reduces the victory that is because there is a history of that here on NSB. I can’t change that and neither can you.”

    Angles and speed played a role for sure, so did the size difference. If Arum and his matchmakers thought otherwise we wouldnt have had to wait for Loma to outgrow 126 before the fight happened.



    Well after Rigo walked away from the original negotiations, Arum, Loma and Top Rank had no interest in re-visiting it. It was Rigo's team and nonstop online trolling that finally got the fight made because Egis Klimas got sick of listening to it. Rigo was chasing them. He was the one willing to move up 8 pounds. He got what he wanted. Kind of. I think everyone might agree that Rigo is the most glorified name on Loma's resume, but not his best win. Rigo did not even try to win. Loma will not even give himself credit for it. He always thought Rigo was too small and was never really interested in him.
