lol You telling me Rigondeux ain’t on par with him? He’s absolutely superb at everything he does. He’s got the patience of a saint. He might not be offensively better than Lomachenko due to the way he fights. Defensively he is. He can land a punch from all type of angles, picks his shots precisely and so calm the way he does it all.

Trying my best to stay awake for it but failing big time.

To be fair this is the closest match up in any big fight for years, along with Canelo vs GGG.

Two fighters who have a genuinely claim to be top 5 pound for pound, and both technically fantastic, although different.

Think Lomachenko decision. But for me the big point here is that neither have, at least in the pros, fought anyone on their level yet*. Who knows if one of them will buckle?




*Lomachenko’s “loss” was bollocks.

I just wanted to use the gif.

Yeah I’m flagging here, especially considering I’d have to be up again sharpish to get stuff done before the derby. Nap time I think.

I’d only seen your other post after posted mine! Best fight (on paper) of the year. It should be getting more mainstream press.

Both excellent fighters, but I want Loma to win solely as I will enjoy the massive fallout and teeth gnashing that will happen on Reddit if Rigo loses. The 'fans' there are insufferable.
