    You're Mexican, you would say that. Fair play for backing your countryman but I know, you know in your heart of hearts he would get clowned.
    You was probably saying Chavez Jr ends Sergios career last week lol

    You maybe impressed by a guy who hasn't really fought anybody himself and only looks good against static fighters that throws a lot of punches, I'm not.

    He attempts doing that **** against Rigondeaux, he'll get sliced & diced.
    You really think an upright stiff with no head movement, no lateral movement who relies on you impersonating a punch bag is going to trouble Rigondeaux?

    Sorry but Rigondeauxs not going to stand static & give his whole body as a target like the chumps have that have fought Leo Santa Cruz plus far.
    High volume face-first pressure fighter with no movement, slow hands & slow feet - A recipe for disaster against Rigo.

      Yeah but Rigo was rocked by a contender, and has gone down before that. you guys might not like it, but i think Donaire KO's Rigo, he's just as fast and can hit a few division above, might take him a while but Donaire will get to him.

        I would like to see him fight more relevant fighters. He has great skills but up until now all hes been fighting is b class fighters n lets be honest in some of those fights he looks uncomfortable specially when he gets tag. He is somewhat like Linares we wont know how good he is until he fights the next level fighters. Well his physical qualities hold under pressure or give up when it gets tough.

          I honestly sit almost hypnotized by how amazingly gifted he is, his footwork is a thing of a beauty.
          How can you deny such a talent?
          His speed, combinations, precision bodypunching, his power & accuracy. Foowork, defense. That is not a good prospect, that is a once in a lifetime OUTSTANDING brilliant, close to perfect technician.

          He fights a guy with over 300 amateur wins, 21-1 with a 70 odd % K.O ratio and wins just about every round, even scores a knockdown or was it two? Gets hit with one maybe two decent shots yet stays composed and pays back with interest and apparently this is him getting 'exposed' even his own damn fellow countryman are turning on him, like wow, what loyal fans you are.
          This is like when Mosley landed two bombs on Floyd ''OMFG Floyd nearly lost lollll, hes got a glass jaw''

          Now Leo Santa Cruz apparently whoops him lmfao! Leon Santa Cruz whoops Guillermo Rigondeaux? Are you absolutely insane?
          Hes not even the best prospect from Mexico in his damn weightclass for Christ sake.

          I wonder if when he spanks these guys if you'll jump on the bandwagon, d1ckriding whose hot at the time or if it'll be a case of ''Lmao hes a bum, hes shot'' etc

          Bookmark this thread because I am telling you right now there is not a fighter, not a single fighter south of 126 alive today that can beat Guillermo Rigondeaux!
          That includes Donaire, that wreckless Margarito wannabe who throws a million lovetaps per round and it also includes Nishioka & Mares.

          1 trillion points to whoever wants it, even odds that if Donaire ever tries his luck with Rigondeaux he gets savaged.

            He has a belt,he's no longer a prospect.he's a champion,although he fights prospect-level competition.

              Umm he got rocked twice by a journeyman. He's been down before.

              Not even a Donaire fan and Donaire KOs him.

                It happens, you jump in the ring you're going to get hit. You jump in a shower, you'll end up getting wet.

                Huge difference between getting clipped a few times and getting jabbed to death and thoroughly outboxed by the likes of Jeffrey Mathebula.
                I'd be personally flatout embarrassed if a C level stickman was able to jab me cleanly a dozen consecutive times at any level.

                Hows it even possibly to outland a guy in every round but two, more than double in some rounds, doubling his punch output yet only giving one round up 10-8 too receive scorecards of 119-108, 117-110, 118-109 in favour of the opposition? They be on the TR payroll for sure.

                  Umm Donaire didn't respect that guys power at all.

                  If you noticed, he was head hunting the entire night, all power shots, and still won comfortably.

                    Same as he always does really though he certainly didn't win comfortably, at least not on my scorecard and on every other scorecard but a biased Donaire fans or a TR employee.

                    What a great boxer Donaire is he don't respect oppositions power so he lets them use his face as a punchbag and looks to land one shot per round. Mr Garcia must be so proud, after all he taught Brandon Rios the exact same methods which ultimately wins him gift decisions too.

                    Lets see how far his lack of respect as you call it, I'd call it a lack of defense gets him against Rigo.

                      Corboda is a very awkward, big & tough southpaw who nobody has ever had an easy time with.
                      Casey is a solid prospect, undefeated at the time & came in with a big K.O ratio.
                      Ramos was a 20-0 world champion.
                      Teon Kennedy has a massive freakishly long reach he uses very well & had never been down and arguably should of been undefeated.
                      Marroquinn was 21-1 had a great amateur career defeating the likes of Gary Russell Jr & Adrien Broner, he too had a K.O ratio in excess of 70%

                      He has only fought guys with winning records & holds the record for his opposition having the highest win-to-loss ratio of any fighter to ever live, beating Oscars record.

                      How can you knock his resume? How could you ask for more than he has already done?
                      Ridiculous that you're boosting fringe top 30 guys like Casey and Kennedy, and ****ting on Mathebula, who's:

                      1. A former olympian
                      2. A titleholder. No chance of those 2 winning world belts
                      3. Robbed by then Ring p4p rated, unified champ Caballero in Panama. It's a hell of lot better than getting robbed by feeble Sturm, for example
