Guillermo Rigondeaux been exposed!

[.:: JSFD26 ::.]

Watched the fight again, and yeah, Rigo didn't do well with his body work tonight. He threw about 100 body shots, and some of them were pawing shots. His worst round in terms of body punches thrown was the 9th and his best was the 7th. So you were right last night to say that he somewhat abandoned the body.

His best round was the 7th as far as bodywork is concerned? Could've sworn it was the 5th. Where he would get inside Marroquin's guard and throw his combos and at the end of the round they looked like they took their toll. I could be wrong tho. I was being pretty annoyed by the way he was fighting and just not doing any bodywork. Like I said, I had to walk out... I just went and got some food. Ill be the first Rigo fan to say it right now, if he fights the same vs Donaire he loses. Donaire is 5'7" and obviously bigger. He needs to get inside and work his body. Go back to what made him Rigo-fkin-deaux.

the shots that staggered/wobbled rigo were two left hooks...donaire has the best left hook in boxing today. if donaire and rigo fight, I expect donaire to stop rigo with his signature left hook...

Donaire has not shown any power at the higher weights. He probably he enough to hurt Rigo, but Rigo has enough to hurt him too.

Good now the rest of the division will man up and fight him now.

[!! Shawn]

but he throws it much faster than marroquin and with much much more force...marroquin barely landed those left hooks and it had rigo all wobbly. you can't tell me that if donaire landed just one clean left hook that rigo isn't going to go down or get seriously hurt...









^^^^rigo's possible future if he fights donaire...

You also have to keep in mind that its much easier to get caught with shots in boring fights like he was in.

I dont see much talking about this fight, but if you watched him yesterday against Robert Marroquin (link to the fight click here) he was rocked badly by not really solid shots.

Every time Marroquin landed a decent shot he hurt Rigo, Rigo defense is great but the first one with some pop to land on rigo will KO him easily.

What yall think?

We started a discussion about this fight last night. I've made several posts about it on another thread. I won't repeat everything I've already said. Suffice it to say that I've expressed concern about Rigo's chin and his lack of activity. However, I don't think Guillermo's been "exposed." Marroquin staggered him twice. That might bring Rigo's chin into question, but it doesn't mean any more than that...at least not yet.

Rigo wont charge in on Donaire, that is a counter left hook not a lead offensive hook

The 4th round was when he threw a 2 long combinations to the body, and in the 7th, he threw about 16 body shots (his most in one round). So the 4th round is arguably the best round.

Donaire is easier to hit, and he doesn't like to lead the action. He has an explosive left hook, but he doesn't have Marroquin's reach. Donaire's chin is still questionable imho, so Donaire/Rigo is still a fight that can go either way.

exposed how?????

Was Mayweather exposed vs Mosley? Just watched the fight and it was an excellent performance

Rigo didn't charge last night, still got rocked by a short left hook.

Haters will look for anything, common nonito Rigondeaux has no chin, fight him.

Donaire is busy fighting the no. 1 guy in the division.
