If Rigo beats Donaire (I don't think he will) where will that put him on the p4p list and when was the last time a guy with so few fights, if ever, broke the top 10 p4p ratings?
Yeah he'd be top 10 for sure. Jeff Fenech & Kostya Tyszu was both top 10 p4p rated fighters in very few fights but I think Rigo if Rigo wins it'll be a few fights less.
Looking at the comp and Ring rankings for early in their careers neither Fenech or Tszyu ascended as quickly as Rigo. Should he beat Donaire and get a p4p rating I believe it would be unprecedented.

When I get home I'll see if I can find out how many fights both Tszyu and Fenech had when the first got rated p4p. That would be impressive company were he to succeed.
he fought some good fighters, man. not to a degree that would warrant p4p discussions obviously, but some of the best in his division none the less. taking into account how few fights hes had as well you really cant bash his level of competition.
I wasn't bashing his level of opposition. Although, his level of opposition is poor overall.
He has Ramos who's a decent fighter and Cordoba who's a decent fighter. Then nothing. His resume is no better than Carl Frampton's in all honesty.
But I wasn't saying that, I was just saying that there's more than one reason why Riongdeaux isn't in the P4P list and his resume being well well well well below par for P4P consideration is probably the main one.
Not sure that's the only reason he's not on there now.
The fact he's fought pretty much no one I'd say is a reason.

He has to get on the list somewhere. Only reason he's not now is that he doesn't have the name he's beaten. Donaire is that and then some.
