if u guys didn't give Floyd credit for JMM will u give credit to Loma for rigo?

Mayweather came in 2 lbs over the contracted weight and there was no rehydration clause and mayweather had a 5 inch reach advantage so its comparing apples to oranges. If loma comes in overweight and there was no rehydration clause of course it would mean less if he wins but in this case rigo has the reach advantage, the rehydration clause and looks to be in the best shape of his career and I highly doubt loma is going to come in overweight.

I see, but Floyd was criticized for taking the fight within itself, saying he made JMM come up 2 weight classes like a coward, it was repeated constantly before and after the fight, the 2 lbs was just the icing on the cake to add to the already made complaints. JMM agreed and took the money for the penalty, Floyd came in at the WW limit but 2 lbs over the agreed catch weight. my question was will Loma get credit for making rigo come up 2 weight classes as that was a big complaint around here for the Floyd JMM fight.

Loma is 5'6" that is around the same size as the 122 pound fighters Rigo is already fighting. Stop acting like Loma is big plus Loma is the one that has to get on the inside. Rigo can stay on the outside and counter which is his game. His reach advantage is even more pronounced at 122 lbs

Well see it in the ring but yo will go all CJ Ross/Hellen keller and ignore what everyone else sees.

No winner in this great midget fight one or maybe both will be called overrated come Sunday morning

Bull****. Two almost perfect boxers, the difference is Rigo is a lot smaller and older and that may be the difference here....but im still looking forward to this fight because the skill-level of both guys combined is incredible.

Yes he will get more credit than floyd did due to rigos significant reach advantage and the rehydration clause

Was hast du denn für ein Problem? Bleib mal locker!

Rigondeaux is on PEDs. He has same roid gut as AJ. How do you have a gut that big in small weight classes?

So you are saying that the size difference is the same as how much bigger Floyd was than Manny then right? Except that Floyd had the reach advantage too and Rigo actually has reach advantage in this case. Ok I got it now

Floyd was MUCH bigger and that height did make it much harder for Pac.
