Where Do You Place Rigondeaux Now?

[CubanGuyNYC]

yes he was. rigo and donaire have the best resumes at 122. why shouldn't they fight?

I'd love to see Rigo-Donaire. I'd just like it to be a fight or two down the road so Guille can fully prepare.

Rigo is fast, powerful and has good reflexes, but there a big difference on what you can do with the best in the division to OK fighters. Rigo hasn't got his chin checked by someone like Donaire who clearly has power.

He got his chin checked by Marroquin who is much bigger than Donaire, and has a higher KO percentage.

I still have him at #2, can't wait to see who his next opponent is gonna be.

Rigo is 32 now. He is not going to be getting better, he will only be getting worse from here on out. Any delays in making the fight are only attempts to wait for Rigo to start to fade.

I like rigo alot but i still say he has to prove himself a little more. THe Ramos fight was a good start in the right direction but i still hold him at number #4. If he were to beat the Mares-Moreno winner i wouldnt hesitate to bump him up to number 1

Donaire needs to prove himself. Hes been on the bum of the month tour for years now.

moreno has 0 fights at 122
mares has 1 fight at 122 against morel

why would they be above rigo right now?

rigo has beaten 2 top 10 fighters(#2 #6), doesn't sound that good until...

vasquez beat 0 top 10 fighters
matheluba beat 1 top 10(#5)
even the greatest of all time nishioka only beat 2 top 10 fighters(#8, #10)

Who has Rigondeaux beaten who was #2 at 122?

Corodoba wasn't and neither was Ramos and they're the only two Top 10 fighters he's fought at 122.

[IronDanHamza]

I stand corrected.

Just checked and Rico Ramos was #2.

Wow, Rico Ramos at #2? That's surprising.

Ramos is a solid fighter but now we know how good he really is it slipped my mind he was ever ranked that highly.

[ShoulderRoll]

Would you agree with the idea that Rigo might skip a spot if he beats either Mares or Moreno and jumps to #2?

Of course. But you know very well that he isn't going to fight them because they are with Golden Boy. Bob Arum won't make those fights for him.

Rigo shouldn't have resigned with Top Rank. Arum won't even give him Donaire despite the fact that he promotes both of them.

Rigonho's sitting in the back of the bus. Donaire's firmly in the driver's seat.
