Ask yourself why quality fighters continuously quit & cover up.

You just don't wanna believe Loma is as good as he is, so you're gonna be left wondering forever breh

i believe hes good. and i believe he can be beat.

Crazy this is Loma biggest W and im about it.

We though we were going to get some advanced footwatching nerd shyt and instead we got nikkas not fighting for however many rounds Rigo looking small, washed, slow followed by Rigo quitting.

Rigo looked like any other fighter off the street no strategy no effective adjustments didn’t land more than 3 punches a round. Marriaga put in more work. That was a woat performance and a lot of that was just “will.” He didn’t bring none of that.

He didn’t even really get hurt, it’s like he knew the check was waiting and he didn’t wanna try to figure out a way vs Loma.

Rigo had me hot from the bell. Breh didnt even try (it looked like) . I do like how loma fight tho. He nice. Wanna see him fight Mikey Garcia and maybe Crawford

 

[Black_Jesus]

the man that had everything in his favor and conceded to nothing won.. Loma him self didn't consider it a big win cause he knows he drug a smaller man up to his weight

Fairweather ass fans exposing the shyt outta themselves in this thread. All this Rigo disrespect by the dumbasses that actually thought he was gonna win . nikka overcame so much adversity to get here, I'm glad my man got the bag and hopefully will retire with his health and mind in tact. I'll never forget how mad this dude had these cacs for years for beating up that Pinoy like that, my nikka spent his entire career fighting the world and hopefully got enough cake to live a good life and take care of his family. Bag secure, mission completed and he didn't let these mfs lynch him like they was tryna to putting him in the ring with Loma like that, my nikka basically got a huge ass sparring check tonight.

i dont buy it. you want to know what all those wins have in common? they all fell for it. they all stopped punching. if the only way lomachenko can win is if the other guy wont throw punches at him, then what happens when he fights a guy who will? or is he invincible? thats why i dont buy it. because the last guy he fought who he couldnt get to stop throwing punches at him he lost to. he isnt invincinble.

They all fell for what exactly?

What I saw last night was a guy overwhelmed by his opponents speed and technique...Kind of hard to keep punching when your opponent is always 2 steps ahead of you and consistently beating you to the punch...Even When Rigo said fukk it and started letting his hands go he still couldn't hit Loma because Loma isn't just quick hands...His footwork is just as impressive as his hands and that is a very good combination of athletic gifts to have in boxing...

The best weapon against speed is a disciplined jab but we also know pressure fighters can get to Loma especially those that go hard to the body like Salido did to him...That's why I want to see Loma fight Mikey...That's the type of fight he needs to put his doubters to bed...

At the time JMM fought Floyd versus the Rigo of today, I think it is universal that we all herald El Chacal far higher than that JMM.

JMM wasn't 12 years older than floyd lmao and floyd didn't out weigh'em by over ten pounds

these comparisons are dumb

rigo was never on floyd level even has a defensive fighter, and lomachenko is nowhere near floyd at anything either

wtf are you talking about? 400K is securing the bag to you ..when lomachenko got 3 times the amount?

 

[Megadeus]

I get your point, but youre embellishing. They praised Bud Crawford just as much during and after his last fight.

Actually i'm not embellishing sir. You could go back and watch the fight again, these are literal direct instances ive cited.

and Naw... I dont think get my point. In fact I dont even think you read my post all the way through.

 

[seemorecizzy]

waking up and i still cant believe that rigo quit like that

If Floyd fought like that on the same network against the same fighter with the same commentators they would be callin him boring so stop

I seriously doubt Floyd would be getting called boring after pushing the action for 6 rounds and making his opponent quit...go 'head and cook though.

bothers me how anytime a fighter with pale skin shows any type of talent hes the greatest of all time lol

are you serious?
that fight was boring and not crowd pleasing at all
floyd woulda got killed for that
they woulda cried and say he didnt go for the knock out

floyd walks down BIGGER opponents on a regular basis and always faces opponents who have a 12-15 pound weight advantage on fight night and never gets credit
clearly a double standard here
