I think that fight would be very interesting. Mares could have the style to force Rigondeaux out of his comfort zone and into a brawl.
We all saw what happened when Donaire stopped giving a fck and just made it a rough fight. Chin checked and KD'd Rigo in less than a minute.
I think Mares KO7 Rigo in a very rough fight.
You guys don't ever learn ay bro!! Mares would be very competitive against Rigo. And as a fan, I'll be routing for him all the way win or lose.
I'm not saying he won't or can't be, but when push comes to shove, I think Mares will wind up following Rigo around. Mares showed against Moreno that he's willing to walk/run down his opponent and pulverize them. I think he'd be too willing in the aggressor role and get caught with something vicious. The question is, how many risks is Mares willing to take in order to get the biggest W of his career? I think he's willing to walk through fire, but I don't think he's actually capable of doing so. He's gonna need to freeze Rigo cuz he won't be able out-maneuver him. Chances are he won't be able to out-box Rigo either. Mares is left with one option and it's something he enjoys doing: pressure. He just doesn't have the power to go with it.
I think watching Rigo befuddle and counter Mares to death will be pretty entertaining lol. I want to see how many straight lefts Mares is capable of (or willing to) absorbing in order to pin Rigo down. Mares is a fierce competitor and if Rigo is able to take the fight outta him, I'd be impressed.

Rigo would just run from Mares, it would be a boring fight.
Donaire-Mares would be a better fight.

F*ck Golden Boy and Top Rank.
There's really only two ways this fight goes, either Mares rushes in and beats Rigo's ass, or he rushes in and gets his ass beat. One of them would destroy the other.
I want to but only because Mares is a "name" that everyone respects. I think he gets beat worse then Donaire just did. I even think Rigo gets a TKO. mares has a chin so he can't get the KO.
Mares is totally made for Rigo. Good win on paper but Mares would get wrecked even worse than he did in the AMs. Hes doesn't have half the tools Nonito does.
He should worry about Ponce for now.
It would be less one sided, more competitve match. Mares has more tools than the midgetkiller and just put a clinic on how to slow down an elusive fighter against Moreno.
I kept thinking tonight that a good Mexican pressure fighter would be the best matchup against Rigo. Mares fits that description somewhat but Santa Cruz does especially. They would either win or get KO'd trying.
Unfortunately both are with Golden Boy and we all know how that goes.
No it isn't, but whatever. It's the night of Chacal's big win so I wouldn't be shocked if people started saying he's a nightmare match up for Mayweather.
I'm Surprised I haven't seen Mayweather ducking threads yet lmao
No. The names make it sound good but it's an awful style matchup for Mares.

Would be a good fight for Rigo resume-wise.. But, Mares gets schooled worse than Donaire, but would push the fight more than he did. The fight that would be interesting is Rigondeaux vs Santa Cruz.
rigo made nonito shook from round 1 with his power and carried it over the full 12 rounds and nonito got badly hurt by a left hand in the 12th
mares would get sparked out by a left
No is not Nonito hits wayyyyyyy harder than mares and Rigo took hes like a Man and obtained the guys respect because of what he was dishing back if Mares comes aggressive w.o the chance of a Nuclear face exploding bomb like Nonito has its easy night for Rigo.
