why is Guillermo Rigondeaux rated so highly?

[mrcupide2]

What's the deal with this guy?? he is only 10-0 why is he ranked so highly and already a champion??

[CHOWWOKKA]

Because he shows a lot of skills and is very impressive in the ring. You see most people watch fights and judge accordingly, not just go off of Wikipedia.

Sadly, the hype is coming from his last fight in which he scored like 4 or 5 knockdowns on some unknown bum, but since it was on the Pacquiao card it made headlines.

No, the hype isn't coming from one fight. Some people actually follow boxing opposed to just one fighter(that would be you). Although that one fight was probably the first and only time you've ever seen or heard about him since it was on a Pacquiao card.

Highly skilled fighter with one of the best AM records of all time

You can't fight anybody "of substance" when they won't fight you.
