Originally posted by Frankie2Jabs View PostPeople were fine with Rigondeaux who’s a natural 118 Bantam, but chose to fight at 122. He was P4P higher and a Lineal champ before Loma was as hyped, then Rigo wanted 124 with Loma when Loma was weighing at 125 for his 126 bouts.
Low and behold Loma fans deflected to say Rigo had bad mgmt or pricing himself out etc..when Loma team refused the rehydration clause even for a 124 catch.
Yet again, Low and behold Rigo had to concede to 130lbs and Team Loma finally accepted the rehydration clause for the morning of the fight.
So no, this is nothing like Loma fighting Spence. That is ******ed.
The fight could have happened at 122, it wouldnt be any different. Loma had his number.

I can be a fan and still be honest. You cheerleaders will never understand people who are BOXING fans foremost and fans of certain fighters second.

Originally posted by Tony Trick-Pony View PostI mean, I'm a Lomachenko fan and for me, this is like Lomachenko moving up to challenge Spence and there's no way I think he would win that. I have no desire to see it, either. Honestly it would make no sense to make such a fight. Just wondering if Mikey fans honestly think this is a good move or if it will ruin him in the end? This is not even a good strategy. Duran moved up to fight Leonard but had several fights at 147 first. Loma moved up to fight Linares in his first lightweight fight, but it was a 5-pound leap and Linares doesn't hit like Spence at all. For that matter, neither did Leonard. I don't know. This just seems dumb all the way around. If you guys think this is a good idea, why?

I should not have posted in this thread because I am not a Mikey fan. I am a Spence fan hoping and believing Spence will slaughter Mikey and knock him out. We will know soon if Mikey made a huge blunder. I think he did.
