        Jesus, lets wait till he actually defeats someone with a name. You think Rigondeaux is going to be so accurate and powerful against a guy with some talent. Disrespectful to compare him to any legend when he has beat a bunch of no namers. Caberrelo would ice him in under 5 and Cab is no all time great.

            lol, ice him in under 5 rounds? cmon bruh, you kidding me? if anyone is getting iced inside 5 its cab. have you actually taekn the time to sit and look at rigondeaux's talent? the guy is one of the best counter punchers ive EVER seen. although he hasnt fought a top ten fighter yet, his talent is WORLD CLASS. caballero would be a punching bag against someone with the timing, quick feet and amazing counter punching skills of rigondeaux, real talk.

                he has a hell of a lot of talent and i can see why people are excited about the guy

                i will wait until i see him fight somebody with a pulse before i make my judgement on him

                  What is your statement or anyone elses based on when you compare him to Sweet Pea? The dude has never fought anyone that has came at him and made him adjust . Doubt he is going to be blistering anyone with shots and showing great speed/accuracy when he has a glove coming at his face or someone that has even C rated defense. Right now he doesn't remind me of anyone great because I don't rate prospects against all time greats. If he fights someone with talent then I will decide who he fights like.

                  I've seen his talent and while he does show great skill he also hasn't been in there with a B level fighter. An average athlete can look amazing until he steps in with a real dog. Lets take Mike Jones for example. Against bums he was knocking the **** out them in under 2 rounds and then he gets flat lined by a guy with some experience. That could easily be a fighter like Rigondeaux. I think saying any prospect that hasn't been in with anyone and comparing him to a legend is a little premature.

                    Easy to look slick when you are in there with cab drivers, just saying. Professional boxing is not the am's.

                      I was looking at the rankings for one of the top organizations (I think IBF) and before the fight he was rated as like the #15 contender already.
