    It's nice to see Joel helping out a fellow Cuban...a fellow Olympic champion, to boot. It's also nice to see "El Cepillo" staying close to the sport, not smoking weed on some street corner. lol
    I think he had a gym in Orlando at some point, but it was shut down years back.

        Been trying reply ages. BS doesn't seem fast today, keeps disconnecting.

        Anyway IMO to assasin, Rigo is perfect for Donaire. I may sound crazy but here:

        Donaire isn't good at closing down and chasing a fighter, I agree.
        Donaire doesn't fight on the back foot or inside that well.

        However, he is a counter puncher and Rigo does dart in and out a lot. That's how he got dropped by a flash punch, and hurt by left hooks.

        Rigo doesn't pressure too much nor does he run. Donaire will land and will win by stoppage. Rigo will mark Donaire up, but not enough to win.

        Bump it up when it's all said and done.

              Rigo got this, easy work.

              Rigo patience & accuracy will bank him rounds. Donaire will get more & more frustrated...start to swing wild like he usualy does & leave him open down the pipe for Rigo trademark straight left.

                  The closer this fight gets the more and more people are turning to Rigondeaux.

                  I've said it since day one its very well you looking at Donaire's knockouts and thinking these guys may or may not have a better chin but it don't always work like that & look at it from a stylistic standpoint.

                  If you go forward against a fighter like Donaire, that is perfect for him, especially if you're a sloppy brawler. However when Donaire is forced onto the front-foot hes a totally different fighter!

                  Tell me I'm wrong.

                    You aren't but let's not act like Rigo is a pure defensive minded fighter. He attacks a lot.

                      He is a pure defensive minded fighter as you could get, even when he attacks hes always thinking defense.
                      Some might say he can be overly defensive.

                      The only time I've ever seen him neglect his defense was against Ramos & that is because he knew he had him and nothing was coming back.
