Seems like win or lose to Hopkins every fighter that's faced the old man turns into a turd afterwards. Look at pavlik, dawson. **** even Calzaghe turned to **** after he retired lol now taylor. The old man's curse. Lmfao I feel bad for kovalev lol win or lose his career is already on a down slide once he signed to face Hopkins lmao. Rooting for the old man by the way!
Fellas whether you know it or not this is already happening and media isn't reporting it yet! In fact, Schaefer and DlH have already lawyered up! They haven't made a spectacle of this yet because they are waiting on after the Mayweather fight. Remember where you heard this first! Damit305 #truth!
@foreign soil don't confuse winning against tomatoe cans vs winning against A level competition. He's not even close to that. He'll have his balls handed to him crushed in pieces lol when will you learn that because you throw 100 punches per round doesn't = victory! That tactic is considered amuterish at best. Ask your fellow mexicans and others with that style... like chavez sr, baby bull, rios, etc that means your more open to those lethal counter shots your not even going to see. Funny how all these fighters look at Mayweather and they think their going to steamroll over him and then what happens? They get countered an all of a sudden they have no plan B! This aggressive style plays into the counter puncher style to perfection!
Like Roger Mayweather would say if you think a wildman like Vic would have any chance against a skilled
Pro like rigo then "You dont know **** about boxing!" - Skills pays the bills!
i'd love to see it.....rigo is going to get hit hell of a lot more than usual and i doubt he survives it all...the raging bull still has it...
If he loses to vic he might as well retire. Itll be a mayor upset! Dont know if you noticed yet but the raging bull doesnt have enough power at this weight class to make a difference and i certainly dont see him outboxing a defensive genius to win on the cards.
I watched the fight live at Radio City and 6 times at home..I can't get enough of it..If somebody think that was boring they are entitled to their opinion to me Alvarado-Rios is boring..Rigo is supremely fun to watch and I can't wait to see him perform again hopefully against another good fighter but I doubt it since nobody want a piece of him...lol..Riogo the Great!!!!
Surprised you felt Alvarado vs Rios was boring but didnt think rigo fight was boring as well. Just a higher level of skills not much appreciated by the common fan. Seems like everyone wants to see street like fights rather than skills anymore. I can appreciate both
Im not comparing resumes beteen rigo and rahir but only making an observation as what is to come or not come if he stays with Arum. Arum isnt to keen on promoting this guy. You would think after a win like this your promoter would be taking up a storm hyping you up. Being that he beat his other pino cash cow he rather down play the achievement. If this would have been a victory over Mares he would be singing a different tune. You heard it from me first. Arum will not do the same multimillion dollar paydays for rigo like he does donaire and hes not going to get any significant fights for him to make that happen!
Most well schooled you said? How about all well schooled? Only reason marquez isnt asking for a Floyd rematch is because he knows he got schooled. Bottom line is there hasnt been a mexican fighter yet that can match the skills of a pernel whitaker or a floyd and i doubt itll ever happen. The bottom line is the mexican boxing mentality is not keen on being crafty. Its just not the mexican style. Thats why youre not going to see Mares calling out RiGod! He knows theres no way to overcome that style. Mexicans havent yet learned to figure out the craftiness puzzle and never will. Its a smarter way higher level of boxing that their not use to seeing in mexican gyms. Goes to show you that a crafty fighter with only a handful of fights can be a nightmare for anyone. Donaire never had a chance. And neither will mares if they ever have the balls to call RiGod out. Watch and stay tuned for the beating Guerrero gets from Floyd thinking hes gonna be able to manhandle a technician. Thats the difference man. Mexicans are brawlers not technitians! When you have total control of the ring and know how to counter and your defense is world class their is nothing a typical mexican brawler can bring to the game that can overcome that. They get frustrated and ***** at the post press conference how much of a ***** their opponents were cause they didnt fight them toe to toe like a dumb a Mexicans fighters the way i see it exhibit blood and guts and rely on this to win but in no way is this the smarter way to either prolong your career in such a brutal sport or ever elevate you past the likes of an andrien broner, floyd, RiGod, whitaker, sugar ray leanord, Jones Jr. etc... All master technicians!
Typical Mexican Fighters: All balls. No skills
Most mexican fans dont appreciate craftyness. Its not a vital part of the mexican typical fighter. That is why these mofos never supported marquez till he fought pacquiao. All along they were nut hugging morales and barrera who by the way ducked marquez in his prime. Where were all you mexican fans when marquez couldnt pack a stadium in his own country? The difference between Mexican fanatics and Cuban fanatics is that the Mexicans dont appreciate a boxing lesson. Whereas Cubans can appreaciate both. We appreciate when someone like rigo can outsmart and outbox a fighter. This skill nowadays is looked down upon because all they want to see is a street fight where two fighters stand toe to toe and slug it out... No skills required just heart, guts, and a good chin. This is why Rios is complaining on how Abril was holding but in reality he was frustrated by a smarter more skilled boxer as was Donaire. Donaire is more rounded than Rios by far but for him to think the rigo fight was close is ridiculous at best. Rios will never beat a well rounded skillful fighter. Love his style but please youll never be on a level to beat the best pure boxers in any division. It took a while for many to enjoy Floyds style and his skills and marketing savvy propelled him to where hes at. Funny how when asked by Floyd how do you want me to fight you his only answer to that was so typically Mexican lol "fight me toe to toe" my guess here is Mexicans dont enjoy Floyds style either. Typical Mexican fighters are all balls and no skill which is why i love marquez. He broke that mold and is one of the only Mexicans in recent memory to actually use his skills instead of just trying to walk through opponents like rios and margacheato loved to do.
The most technically sound fighter in the last 30 so years is Fenito Lopez, one of Floyd's favorite fighters, said it himself.
This guy is an idiot.
You don't know crap about Mexican boxing. For you info Salvador Sanchez was one of slickest fighters in Mexican history and what about the great Julio Cesar Chavez, who in his prime had excellent body movement, and what about Ricardo Lopez, Humerto Gonzalez. The list goes on. Marquez was never dislike by Mexicans. Only the ones who don't like people from the capital city. Mexicans appreciate all styles of boxing but prefer warriors. Let's talk about the slick Miguel El Titere Vasquez who can't get a high paying fight because of his slick boxing style which is the reason why all the so call Champions duck him, including Brandon Rios before going to 140, Adrain Broner, Ricky Burns and even Yuriorkis Gamboa who has the mouth to call people out then takes easier opponents.
You call yourself a mexican fan and you never even mentioned Ruben Olivares in your list? What he didnt make your cut? You dont know **** about boxing. Olivares was probably the best to come out of mexico. As far as vazquez is concerned he has no fans not even mexicans who can rise his financial worth enough for the likes of broner and gamboa to make a decent payday. A bum in the street can probably bring just as many fans to the table. Only reason Gigo got his shot is cause his amatuer experience and because hes the truth. Vasquez aint got **** financially or otherwise to intrigue fans or orher successful prizefighters to want to play with his ass. The guys a bum
Damn right, you just got owned, and i'll use names how ever i want punk. I'm done with you kid.
Just come back and visit this post 50 years from now when mexico produces the likes of floyd, whitaker, or at the very least a broner. See you around. Go brush up on the best to come out of mexico cause you wont see one in the #1 p4p list for a while. Lmao
At least pure boxers never see a need to load up their gloves in order to beat someone unconscious. Pure boxers hardly get hit enough to have to worry much about loaded gloves. gloves. What pisses me off the most is how Mexicans feel that because they press a fight that they should be winning rounds. Just because your fighter is dumb enough to chase after a skillful counter puncher whose schooling your boy going backwards doesnt not mean your winning a round. Even judges have this sentiment nowadays. What ever happened to ring generalship or defensive craftmanship? Im still pissed off since 93 that all you mofo Mexican Chavez Sr supporters still think the Pernell Whitaker fight was actually a draw! Oh and since im already taking about your daddy lets also talk about his son who apparently has the same issues as his dad... Cant overcome a skillful boxer EVER! Who wants to put there 2 cents worth that Jr gets whopped by either GGG or Ward? As the matter of fact i think even the old man hopkins would take Jr to school. Pal Kinder con todos los Mexicanos!

This guy is an idiot.
Are you speaking of the 105 pounder who never moved up 3lbs north to fight the likes of carvajal or better opposition or the 2nd best mexican fighter at the time cause everyone in mexico was nut hugging Chavezs left nut? Even King paid no mind in promoting him. He wasnt even that popular that even carvajal was making more money than him. Cant be the best if your fighting scrubs.
Excuse his manners. The only parental skills this guy has ever seen was when rigo schooled his boy donaire! Whose your daddy now! Dont worry your rigo poster is on its way too hater!
OOOHHHH! EASY MONEY! Lol They all beter stay clear of any cubans or fighters named MONEY! Ask Canelo about money. Ask him about the cuban he is avoiding too! OOHH!
Bam Bam Reminds me of a Mini Me Margarito.
Bam Bam Reminds me of a Mini Me Margarito. That being said all chin, good aggression, good power, no defense. Aka... A walking heavy bag lol Gamboa has too much skill for this cat to overcome. I believe gamboa circles around Rios like Cotto did against Margarito its an easy night out for the cuban star.
Rigondeaux is not Mayweather by any means but..
Let's keep an open mind here folks...
If Mayweather wins via 12 rd UD vs Canelo and is not 'very' exciting will Floyd get crucified by the media in the fashion Rigo did when derailing the Nonito train?
Like Floyd likes to say "Mayweather is must watch tv. You got the guy that says tonight i'm going to pay. I want to see mayweather lose. Keep paying! You got the guy that says tonight i'm going to pay to see mayweather win. Keep paying! Love me or hate me your going to watch me. Love me or hate me your going to watch me!" Togo unfortunately doesn't have the following and it's not helping that his promoter is trashing him in the media that he's a boring fighter to watch. Styles makes fights. Get him good stylistic match ups and you'll see good fights. Arum has been playing the same card since bad in the day when he was with money! He's all about the mexican fan base. That's all he's looking to promote cause that's where the easy money is at! It was to much work building a fan base for mayweather when he had a cash cow like dlh! It's the same scenario now except you got a pinoy and some more mexicans in the mix. Boxing has become similar to WWE in many respects. Promoters are looking for entertainment. They give 2 ****s about skill. Maybe rigo can learn a thing or two from mayweather. Start talking a good game. Invest some of that money your making in yourself and start becoming a headliner at every media event known to man. Start calling people out. Show up in the middle of an interview the next time donaire or mares wins and ***** slap one of them. Learn to build up the fight and the fans will come. Call attention to yourself. This is what mayweather and ali knew how to do well. They learned the art of **** talking. They became their own promoter. This is something that needs to be taught to fighters nowadays. Nice guys finish last. If you want to make it big in this sport it's time to call yourself the bad guy. Love me or hate me your going to watch me! Love me or hate me your going to watch me!
