    Well I said before the fight it would be almost impossible to win on the scorecards for Rigo due to the the obvious problem in boxing with Corruption, and you could see they were trying to cook the cards in Donaires favor, but he dominated so completely that they couldn't legitimately steal this win from him.

    This win is about as good a win as any fighter has had in recent years.

      That's why I didn't bet on this fight with real money or the BHOP vs Cloud fight.

      I would have made a fair few bob from those fights if I trusted boxing judging.

          I came to that conclusion as soon as I heard the third card being announced.. Crazy day for me .. managing my 3 year olds B-day and the Rigo fight.. exhausting day but worth it!

            I told myself this morning that I would watch the fight, judge it myself and turn it off after the 12th round.

            With all Ringo has been through in his life I would not be able to stomach a sickening robbery.

              hell yeah, i was already telling my dad "i hope they don't rob this man if it goes the distance". scorecards were too fucking close.

              Don't worry I did the same thing with Martinez lol
              haha, i got a little worried for rigondeaux when the KD happened. after watching the replay they showed in between the rounds though, it def looked like he was caught off guard (coming out of the clinch i think). he recuperated well though, he didn't look as tired as martinez did.

                Now I have a reason to give my Matthysse sig a rest lol

                Rigo probably didn't win a lot of fans with his performance, but I thoroughly enjoyed it. Donaire brought out the best in him. I wonder who Rigo will fight next, it's gonna be interesting to see if he can remain motivated. I want to see him vs. Quigg and Frampton.

                Better question, who's gonna actually want to step up??? He got a big name under his belt now, so it should be easier now to make fights.

                  donaire was too ****y he thought his speed alone would win him the fight, the only thing he did all night was look for the left hook in vain

                    Donaire asked for medium well and ended up with a disfigured face.

                      I think the obvious next choice is the winner of Victor Terrazas vs Christian Mijares for the WBC
