:mjlol: who didn't see that fight.


It's more like did you see Margarito's career?:gucci:

What I said still stands.

Its like Toney stopping Holyfield doesn't mean Evander didn't have a granite chin or wasn't a warrior. You can't take one fight and change the whole narrative of their career.

That's basic boxing knowledge1101:francis: If we do what you just implied we'd have to discredit the careers of every boxer just because of one performance.
That's not really fair, but do you. :manny:

and I never said Margarito wasn't predictable. That's why I said he wasn't awkward to me. Guys like Mayorga and Chino would rush you throwing bombs from all types of angles whereas Margarito was your standard Mexican boxer but with an elite pressure style with maxed out stats for chin and stamina.
We are saying the same shyt
But, id be more worried about a pressure fighter who's coming in from different angles, with elite power and solid counter punching, then I would be for a straight up and down predictable pressure fighter

Cheato was looking good against average competition
He hasn't beat anyone that'd elite without cheating

Saying floyd would have trouble with him is laughable lol

u tear off someones ear when you have loaded gloves
gunboat smith ripped of jess willard's ear in a fight. he would go on to later admit in old age to having his padding removed from his gloves and and his hands wrapped in electrical tape for that fight. to his defense he said everyone in those days did the same thing.

Lomachenko: Rigondeaux Fight Would Play Out Like Marriaga Did!

By Steve Kim

As Vasyl Lomachenko (9-1, 7 KOs) came over to press row after his seven round destruction of Miguel Marriaga on Saturday night at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles, talks turned to just who the defending WBO super featherweight belt-holder would like to face next.

"This question I always have, it doesn't matter - anybody," he answered. "It's not my job, understand. My job is to work my best boxing in the ring."

There is a segment of the fan-base that would like to see him square off with another noted, boxer and fellow two-time Olympic gold medalist, Guillermo Rigondeaux (17-0, 11 KOs).

Rigondeaux, who holds the WBA's super bantamweight title, says he is willing to come up to 130-pounds for Lomachenko. The World Boxing Association recently ordered Rigondeaux to make a mandatory defense against Moises Flores, but the Cuban boxer is fixated on getting in the ring with Lomachenko.

According to Top Rank's CEO Bob Arum, who promotes the Ukrainian, he's been in contact with Rigondeaux's promoter, but they are having some trouble reaching the boxer to make the fight happen.

"As a matter of fact I offered Rigondeaux the fight and I talked with Dino (Duva, executive of Roc Nation Sports) and we sort of agreed on a number and the kid won't get back on the phone with Dino," Arum said.


You wonder if fellow 130-pounders will be reluctant to get in there with Lomachenko, who seems to only be growing in his dominance.

"No, you pay them," said Arum, believing that everyone has their price."You just have to pay them, the guys will go in (versus Lomachenko)."

When Lomachenko was asked how a potential match-up with Rigondeaux would play out, he answered simply - "I think it looks like the same (as the Marriaga fight)"

Rigo aint answering the phone?:ohhh:


Let's see if RNS comes out and disputes this, because surely, I wouldn't want a guy....who's much smaller than Marriaga....to get his wish to be KOd by Lomachenko:obama:
