He's fighting in February and no announcements have been made about his opponent.
Donaire and Mares are unavailable.
Who could he fight that could give him the test that so many people claim he needs?
I think he should target other fighters not named nonito, Come to england, go after the south african guy etc because Arum isnt going to make the fight with nonito yet, am sure Arum wouldnt mind pitting him against Mares though.
I agree that they would be good opponents but, if/when Rigo beats them, I can see folks saying Rigo fought damaged goods.
What about Alexander Bahtkin that the Ring has ranked at #5?
havent seen him yet but if he'sranked top 5 why not?.. rico ramos was ranked but ive seen how he was ranked and he was trash from the start ..still he was ranked is what matters...
any of these fights is very good and a major step up for rigo imo..i just like to see rigo againts someone i think is worthy..coz tbh , he hasnt look that good even againts mediocre opponents...

Well, I guess he could also fight Vasquez or Darchinyan too.

I'd like to see how he does with Mathebula.
would be interesting to see how rigo deals with the huge height and reach disadvantage...rigo is like 5'4"1/2 i think...and mathebula is like 5'11" lol...but not sure how good his jaw is since donaire broke it.
Quigg is a young fighter with good fundamentals, plus he earned his title shot when he beat Munroe. It's not like Rigo has many choices anyway.
And this is the problem. My wish came true when Poonsawat was announced as an opponent. Unfortunately, that match-up never materialized. Nearly all that's realistically left now are fighters coming up from 118 or Donaire hand-me-downs. I don't like either.

Team Quigg has spoken about a title shot this year but I don't think Hatton goes the Rigo route this early
I was thinking the same thing but I have a feeling that many would try to discredit Quigg. I could be wrong though.
I also hope that Rigo doesn't fight any of Donaire's old foes.

Hopefully he fights Quigg next.
