  • Seems Loma and Rigo Are More Friends Than Foes, Loma Gave a Nice Purse

    Last great payday Rigo saw was his 750k against Donaire. Realistically, Rigo took about 350K after taxes and camp fees, plus the orgs down the line eating fees for his straps...

    We all know Loma said Rigo Is the "King At His Weight," so therefore you wonder why Loma and Dad never agreed to 124 when they were at Featherweight. I think it would've been competitive as at Featherweight Loma struggles with power...GRJ, Salido, coming from Lightweight 132lbs in the Olympics to 126 in the pros. Therefore at 124 was a risk.

    Then when Loma rises to 130 supposedly 126 is offered...if that's the case, and Loma and his fans are certain it's the same outcome, then why wasn't the fight offered at 126 or a catchweight again?

    The answer was 400k at 130 or no fight. Rigo would take 200k when it's all said in then. That's not too bad for a fighter in Rigo''s position. Rigo coasted the fight as best as he could not getting hit and took the 200k like a walk in the park. At best his hand was murked by his own doing, but as others pointed out which was obvious, Rigo wasnt getting lit up, rather Loma was just running around a smaller guy that gives the perception of looking good without landing, as JCC said to ESPN "clowning aroud" with unecessary movement to look good...again, against a Super Bantamweight...when Floyd goes for broke to clown walking down a bigger man in Conor...

    Why would Loma feel the need to fight as he normally does? Why couldn't Loma just walk Rigo down?

    Now Rigo has enough cash to pay fees in the orgs to start fresh, at 122-126.

    I think both parties thought of this idea to be fair.

    People seem to forget, both fighters lost the 0. Seems fair...

    Olympics do same day weigh in, not as much weight cutting. They fight closer to their real weight. Think 126 was the limit to what Lomachenko could cut to and Rigondeaux turned him down. This time around Lomachenko had him by the balls, Rigondeaux had nowhere to go. Lomachenko the realest person there is about the whole situation, aint trying to make the win seem more significant than it is.

    At the moment all I think the fight has proved is that Rigondeaux is 2nd best at those weights, dont think 126 would have made any difference, Lomachenko is just better. Rigondeaux will still play with everyone else down there, still get avoided. Love to see someone relevant toss their hat in the ring, but itll still be "is it worth it"

      Loma already did Feather and Lightweight for Gold.

      The first hype provided by Dan Rafael himself was the catch weight challenge in 2015 as he reported what Gary Hyde wanted the public to know, article published by fat Dan himself. Rigo asked for 124 with a hydration limit to 135. That's super fair!! while Lomas was at 126. Loma's has been fluctuating at weigh ins at 125-126 from 2013-2015.

      If Loma couldn't do that he shouldve just shot it down to say he wouldn't be able to do 124, and better a 125 catchweight. Again, seems fair.

      So Loma goes to 130. so by this time we know Loma and pops want a rehydration clause of 140 if Loma does 126.

      So then the fight gets made, they offer a take it or leave it at 130 for 400k with a morning limit of 138lbs. Loma gets to rehydrate to whatever he wants hours to the fight. So basically Loma has it even easier than the initial 126 bout.

      At least Rigo can rebuild with his take home pay to himself of 200K.

      At the end of the day, Rigo had the worst end of the stick B side but that's what he wanted. Thinking about it clearly it was good for Rigo. He will bounce back.

          Loma was about 8 pounds more on fight night morning, so maybe 10 pounds more on fight night than rigo. That isnt a huge difference. People fight 10 lb bigger guys all the time. Rigo had no answer for lomas workrate, speed and accuracy. He had a big reach advantage and was unable to land any counters because loma could jump in and out of range and swarm him with his accurate t-rex arms. Rigo gave up and fouled his way to survival and after 6 rounds gave up and couldnt take the embarrassment anymore so he quit.

            I'm saying Lomas did a favor in "take it or leave it."

            I think Rigo did a great job trying to get this fight for so many years. Rigorous hasn't fought much so there isn't much headroom where Rigorous could request more than 400K. Basically there's nothing that Lomas would benefit frome in this bout, so I take it he did Rigo a favor. He takes home 200K in time for Christmas and dıdnt suffer damage like Loma''s previous opponents.

            Now Rigo can rebuild in 2018 from post circumstances from this fight. He has loot for fees and such.

            When Rigo finally acknowledged 130, who's to know if that's what he wanted or got called put on his own game. Loma was A Side in all scenarios with any rehydration clauses.

                And that's what ESPN reported...they were shady in this fight to begin with...

                This is absolutely not a 10lb difference bro. Look at the overall mass. Lomas was like 20lbs over Rigo at least, it's just not reported...
