Guillermo Rigondeaux vs these fighters

[Flo_Raiden]

How well do you think El Chacal would do against these great fighters of the past in his weight division?

Wilfredo Gomez
Eder Jofre
Carlos Zarate
Jeff Fenech
Orlando Canizales
Miguel Lora
Marco Antonio Barrera
Erik Morales
Naseem Hamed
Rafael Marquez
Israel Vazquez

Rigondeaux obviously has world class skills, and probably would be a difficult opponent for anyone. But his resume compared to the names you listed is a joke. If Rigo has been down three times already in only 15 fights, then I don't see him going the distance against killers like Gomez, Jofre, Zarate, etc.

Too early for that. We haven't seen him face all of these styles yet.

I want Rigo to face a real pressure style. Frampton poses the biggest test IMO.

[Suckmedry]

We definitely haven't seen enough but I'd put money on Rigo to give anyone a great fight, beautiful style of boxing.

I don't believe we will ever get a true accounting of how good Rigondeaux could truly be because he has already missed his athletic prime IMO...

Rigo is supposed to be 32 years old but I highly doubt that that is the case...Cuban athletes are well known for lying about their ages...& at this point with only 15 professional fights reality dictates that we prolly missed the boat on seeing Rigo at his best...

We will have to settle for this past prime inactive version of the man...It's a shame because Guillermo is one of the most talented pugilists I have ever seen....

I was basically going to say the same thing.

[Sugar Adam Ali]

Zarate, Gomez, Joffre would be too much for rigo..


I think Rigo has a great chance to beat all others, though it's not a given..

[nivek535]

rigo went from underrated to overrated.
yes i said it, overrated.
incomplete fighter.

[H.B.Viper]

You didn't mention Azuma Nelson

Now that would be a chess match......
"The professor" would ko Riggo!
