Loma vs Rigo - Final Predictions!

Never expected Rigo to quit. All that pre-fight talk, wanting that big fight to give his all and he quits. That is unacceptable.

 

Father time don't give a fuck about timing

This guy was ripe to lose after alllll them wars

 

Rigo’s hand better be broken, and it better have happened In the 2nd round, that’s all I’m saying. Because from the 2nd round onwards he didn’t fight as if he wanted to win. It was an embarrassingly negative performance from an undefeated champion

 

Hypothetically, if Loma were to go on to beat Garcia, Crawford, Thurman and Spence, again HYPOTHETICALLY (before certain people get their knickers in a twist), where would he rank all time?

 

The bus stops at Crawford. No guarantees he beats Garcia, but he definitely loses to Crawford. Hypothetically though, he would be top 10 material

 

I think it's a great fight, not saying he wins but it's a very interesting match up.

 

I think he beats Mikey. But he definitely loses to Crawford.

 

Lol. Spence would squash Loma like a bug.

 

A little too much hype of Mike

Not really that interesting. Crawford beats the Hell outta Loma. Too big.

 

With Loma's frame, I can never envision him being effective at 147. 140 would be max. He's not a big guy at all.

 

I agree. He's only 5'6" as well. I actually think that 135 would be max for him.

 

Neil, I came here to gloat about the wizardry of "Rigon-DOH!", and I can't even feel good about THAT.

Even when he loses in an embarrassing fashion, that motherfucker takes the complete pleasure out of it for me.

:(:(

 

Some motherfuckers on here have gone on and on about what a little fucking genius he is for WINNING fights while doing that very same thing.

 

No way his hand was broken. We see fighters end fights with broken hands all the time. There were no indications of a broken hand whatsoever.

 

Alright, I actually agree but again, it was hypothetical. It's like when people said if Roy had beaten Lewis after the Ruiz fight, he would have gone down as the best ever, obviously nobody actually thought he could win that, was just curious to see what Loma's standing would be if he were to go on a run like that.

 

ASSuming All Hurdles were Cleared Controversy Free, Lomachenko Would DESERVE Consideration for the All Time Top 10, @ the Very Least...

That Said, it's HARD Envisioning Spence or Crawford Losing to a SMALLER Guy....If Lomachenko Had Pac's Power, it'd Be More Feasible...

That Said, Lomachenko Beats Danny Garcia and Broner For Sure...He'd Out Finesse Horn and Porter Would Be an Interesting Fight...

I've been a big fan of Lomachenko since Beijing, I think he's incredible, but tbh it's not his footwork that stands out to me - it's everything else - the speed, creativity, accuracy, reactions, workrate. He has good footwork obviously, but he mainly just pivots a lot.

Pacquiao has some of the fastest feet I've ever seen, and is quite unpredictable in his angles and movement.

 

For real??? Loma hands does not impress me that much, but his footwork and pivots are beyond insane

 

Lot of incredulous hate floating about here.

What gives with BigDawg............

 

Some of you guys are overrating Crawford big style. He's good, but dunno, I'm not completely sold on him.

Yeah Spence would crush Lomachenko like a bug, no doubt, but I would pick Lomachenko over Crawford at 135.

 

Really??

He lacks power, but jesus, he is so fluid and accurate and fast. He's just constantly landing.

 

yeah, but I think he does so cause he's always perfectly placed because of his footwork. Don't ge me wrong, his hands are pretty good, but I don't see them as being ATG level (beijing loma hands is another discussion), while the way he moves is pretty much unprecedented

 

If Loma vs Crawford happens, it would have to be at 140 but I think even that was a long shot. Loma's ceiling is 135 IMO.

Crawford is bound for 147. He's just too big for Loma in all honesty.

 

That hypothetical run would be similar to what Pacquiao did, probably even better. If Lomachenko did that without steroids, he'd be in the conversation for all time p4p #1.

It's quite something. I wonder if there is any precedent? To top it off two of the fighters who quite were undefeated.

 

If Loma beat Crawford and then Anthony Joshua Muzse will be here to tell us it's not very impressive.

 

Not before Bog-Dog he won't.............

 

If Crawford is the bad Motherfucker you think he is, have him fight golovkin at 160

Same ridiculous scenario

 

Loma is special. Much like two other special fighters in Pacquiao and Floyd were able to beat elite fighters who had significant size advantages, I think Loma beating Crawford would be no different.

Crawford is good, don't get me wrong, an elite fighter and a far cry from a hype job like Broner. The difference is I don't see him being a special fighter, or a great fighter like some of you do. To me, he's a solid guy at elite level and nothing more.

He is bigger than Loma of course, but is he that much bigger? Loma looks like a natural 130 pounder, and Terence looks like a natural 140 pounder to me. Crawford is only an inch taller, and not exactly a big, physically imposing guy at any weight. The main thing Crawford has over Loma is a lot of reach. I think Loma's handspeed, footspeed, movement and defence could negate that.

Pacquiao looks like a natural featherweight frame wise, yet was busting heads all the way up to 154. I don't think Loma is capable of that, not sure he has the reach or the power, and who knows about his chin.

But I could see him beating someone like Crawford at 140, and at 135 I'd pick him for sure.

 

If loma beats crawford, it puts him among the atg imo
