Comments Thread For: Lomachenko Rejects Rehydration Clause For Rigondeaux

[Doctor_Tenma]

Why? Its using an advantage like reach, or speed, or back peddling all fight and simply touching your opponent scoring points. As long as a guy makes weight, that's all that matters.

I'm tired of seeing a significant size difference between fighters campaigning in the same weight class, that's why.

[Doctor_Tenma]

rehydration clauses make the entire ban on same day weigh ins redundant and bring back fighters dying because they're boxing when they need an IV

That's on them, fight at your natural weight and one doesn't have to worry about that.

then complain to the fighters? they choose how much they're willing to cut

it's part of the game

same day weigh ins and dehydration clauses just mean you see medically dangerous zombie fights, nothing else, guys will still fight as low as possible

there's a reason we got rid of it back in the day

Take ANY thread on NSB and see your name with a post in it and I already know 10000000% exactly what fighter you're gonna d**k ride and what fighters you're gonna talk **** about.


You're so salty and angry all the time. Lmfao. Go have some fun dude.

this seems pretty fact based tho..lot of ppl call out weights to block fights..like ggg164...now that ward is saying ok to 164 u might see ggg's next play go off on a cotto canelo tangent..but imo ward shouldnt 164 bc ggg chan make 168 easy and rehydrate and rigo shouldnt 126 bc he is not a natural 122 guy and does not rehydrate past 126...its all about the numbers with me..

Rigo is to blame here, plain and simple. Either move up to 126 or you don't get the fight, that's all there is to it. Lomachenko doesn't need to fight Rigo- dude has only 5 pro fights and is already a bigger name He fought on Mayweather-Pacs undercard. He's got the higher ceiling as far as career potential goes. He's only 26 and younger, and he's got more time to fight the better competition.


Rigo can either accept a no rehydration clause (wtf) orhe can continue to fight unknown, random Thai's and former MMA fighters on free-Japanese cartoon network.


So, basically... all the upset RigoTARDS who know their hero's career is basically coming to an end- are upset and sad that their boy is going to retire with one career good win and will continue to be basically irrelevant in boxing. Ha ha ha ha haaa

Oh. And easy work Loma.



The dude can step on Rigo and crush him. Rigo would get dominated- that's why he wants and needs these outrages clauses and demands.



Lame. Rigo is blocking the fans from getting a FANTASTIC fight. Oh well. Back to free Japanese TV!

If anyone is willing to risk their health for a size advantage, that's on them. The sport would have far more entertaining fights if we still had same day weigh ins.

why the extreme double standard?

imo smaller fighters should never demand a guy move down to fight them, you're asking him to show up malnourished

while it's pretty easy for the smaller fighter to just put on a couple lbs of muscle and see what happens

either fight him at his normal weight or agree like gentlemen that it's just not gonna happen.. in a fantasy world anyway

i don't wanna see GGG fight a starven version of ward either, what's the point?

so due to popularity someone should be shafted on weight issues? u make no sense bro..rigo is p4p number 3 he'll get fights..u dont have to risk u stutus by fightin 126lbers that are planing to be 15lbs heavier..rigo has always fought bigger guys and he's taken punishment just from one punch..im sure he thinks it is time to put an end to that...when u hit a guy that is 122 its easy fro him to fall bc he is small and close to the ground at 5'3..the mass correlation just says fall..lomo has no business callin 122lbers out if he has not business in being generous with the weight issues..it was a bluff move

Rigotard here, and as I've said in other threads concerning pretty much the same topic about these two, Lomas team I feel is in the right for telling Rigos camp to kick rocks about the hydration clause.

Probably the fight I'm most looking forward to, but if it goes down the crapper over it, I'm not putting the onus on Loma.
