What a fight we have on our hands tonight. Lomachenko is rightfully the favorite due to being the naturally bigger guy. Both guys are supremely skilled but I say a slight edge goes to Rigondeaux. Rigondeaux probably also hits harder if we're just talking about one punch.
We have seen more Lomachenko recently as he has been more active. Rigondeaux on the other hand seems to be more hittable lately...although that looks more like him trying to be a more watchable fighter to the public.
Leading up to the fight Rigondeaux has looked great in his training videos and he has been extremely confident. I think the odds are little too wide and it should be closed...now way should Loma be a 3 to 1 favorite. I'm taking Rigondeaux on pure value alone. He's got to fight the perfect fight and not get forced into fighting lomachenko's fight.
Rigondeaux will need to get Lomachenko's respect early and also fight his counter punching style. Do not be surprised if Rigo gets a knockdown on Lomachenko...most guys will not engage with him but Loma will come forward which could lead into Rigo's left.
rigondeauax has got to fight the perfect fight to win and I have no doubt he will have success early. We will find out if he can sustain it towards the end of the fight...
call me a sucker but I'm going with Rigondeaux at +300
