Lomachenko vs Rigondeaux poll

Fans think that a heavyweight giving away 20 pounds to an opponent is more of a advantage than a bantamweight giving away 10 lbs! It is NOT!
The power becomes limited as a small bantam moves up to feather or super feather. It simply doesn't transfer the way it can with bigger men!
The activity level that occurs in the light divisions is the main ingredient in a career for the little guys. Power becomes more relevant as the classes increase in weight.
Rigo will not match up with a solid super feather he is only 5' 3.5" some say 5'4" with good reach but against Lomo he gives up a lot of size.
I do believe that Rigo has little to no options to earn a pot of money so he needs to take the bout.
The smart move would be a "co-feature" with Lomo vs Salido and Rigo vs Flores!! I don't think they will end with surprises but it might be a good promo shot to try and draw in the casuals also you can bring in major sports networks since both of these men don't need to add in "fu@&" every other word like a moron!
I think Rigo gives away a lot once they re hydrate but times running out on him at his age!

A seasoned Middleweight in Hopkins to tame a Tarver or drop Shumenov to the canvas...
Didn't Stevenson batter a now "Heavyweight" Bellew? Didn't Ward hurt Kovalev where Kovalev TWiCE in both occasions was meant to overpower and KO Ward?
Real boxing fans know that accuracy and timing, positioning, will drive a shot's enormous power. That's why guys like Lara or Rigo can hurt dudes with proper timing and picking.
Let's not forgot Rigo just snapped a dude's Jaw by the illustration just mentioned because Rigo knows when to coil back and pop!
Let's stop making covert weight disparity excuses to not make this fight happen

These excuses are getting old.
Gennady "hits" like a HW so they say...
All this but Rigo can't fight Loma from 122-130 when Amagasa rehydrated more than 140+?
