This whole Rigo vs Donaire thing is overrated. There are too many great fights to wait for that one. I'd rather see Rigo fight Mares, Santa Cruz, Mickey Garcia, or Gary Russell. The list goes on for Rigo. Louis Del Valle, Cordoba rematch, Nishioka, Jonathan Romero, Salido, Franco, Dibs, Caballero, JuanMa, Javier Fortuna would test the hell out of his chin. Any of those would be solid matchups!Last edited by richardt; 07-25-2012, 12:14 PM.

He dispatched a scared-to-death Ramos in 6. (I must admit Guillermo probably should've closed the show even earlier.) Then he smashed Teon Kennedy in 5. I understand that we're not talking legendary competition here, but it certainly appears that Rigo is trying to bring more excitement to the table.

Originally posted by SoggyLungs View Posti agree that rigo is a very skillful and powerful fighter, but considering his competition and how he looked against cordoba, I'm not yet truly convinced he's this future p4p fighter. When donaire and rigo fight and i hope they do, we'll find out how well rigo can compete against a real top fighter in donaire..if rigo manages to beat donaire I'll definitely be giving him the props he deserves because as of right now i see donaire beating rigo.

Originally posted by brick wall View Postthose were outmatched opponents. after just the first round, rigo have them already figured out so it's just a matter of time. but it's a good start for him if he wanna avoid getting booed again. by now he should've already realized that pro boxing is different from the amateurs. business is a big factor in pro boxing and a fighter needs to be marketable to attract business.

The quintessence is: Every top dog has to fight the others, period! Nishioka, Mares, Donaire and Rigondeaux have to fight eachother! What a strange business, money related world, where one has to state this. In every other sport the best fight/compete against the best. The fihgters. managers, promoters, TV...what a bunch of twisted reality!
If I didn't love boxing so much, I had already turned my back to another kind of sport!
