Does the winner get the #1 p4p distinction? With Ward retiring and Canelo-GGG inconclusive, I think it does.
If Rigo wins without controversy (see his last fight) then it's almost guaranteed. For Lomachenko it'll just help solidify where he's already ranked by most P4P lists.
I no doubt think both will be in amazing condition. But I think of Chocolatetito vs Sor... it is weird how just a few pounds at these smaller weights can make a world of difference. Loma is going to be naturally bigger by a solid 10 pounds, and he will look it in the ring. He throws from weird angles, and Rigo is prone to getting hit with shots he didn't see.
Loma was 139 in his last fight. I think he'll come in a little lighter while Rigo will come in the heaviest we've seen him. It'll still be a lot of size and weight that he's giving up when you factor in body weight percentage for him. I think we'll see more body work in this fight from them as both are hard to hit clean upstairs and both are very good at attacking the body.
