I don't have a problem with what Roger said, it was the truth but all credit goes to Rigo. The guy really needs some publicity.

Ive never seen a fighter make his opponents, current and former champions of the world, look so timid so quickly.
Its the power and accuracy mixed in with his constant poise. You KNOW if you are fighting Rigo he's waiting for you to f*ck up, you know he has the power to hurt you when you do, AND you know theres little chance of you even landing if you take the risk. The answer, stop throwing.
I know lots dont but i find it incredible to watch how he shuts these guys down.
I do too and i dont blame them
Usually when a boxer its fighting he looks for openings or at least to catch their opponent off balance or make them a little uncomfortable.
But rigo has such perfect balance and footwork, and is so fast and accurate with his punches that the opponent never knows when to attack.
Incredible to watch for a ******** boxing fan, but i understand why most ppl dont get into it.

You might get knocked out but this is boxing indeed like Roger said but Agbeko was there to survive after he felt those body shots and uppercuts a guy who gave a whooping to Mares and beat Vic look so pathetic that was a shock to me I was mad as fk .

Take more risks? Did those words just come from a mayweather? Lol.
Is it just me? or did Roger look completely uninterested in the fight...
