    Anybody become a fan of Rigo after last night?

    I mean, he's proven that he could become a star in the sport by beating a Top 10 P4P fighter in Donaire. And in only his 12th pro fight, no less!

        Most definitely a fan of his abilities.

        I only discovered him recently. Although his skills were obvious, I wasn't sure he would be able to defeat Donaire.

        I honestly expected a much closer , risky fight for Rigondeaux. He deserves all the credit he gets.

        (And so the ones who predicted such a dominant win , very good insight!)

              I'm a big fan of his now. The skill and ring generalship he displayed was on another level. I knew it was a tougher fight for Donaire than many thought but I didn't expect Rigo to dominate the way he did.

                tbh I have never called a fight more wrong than last nights, I predicted based on nonito last year that he would win in 7 rounds. Simply because he was amazing and I felt rigo was being over hyped with his amateur credentials.

                Now I believe that rigo is top 3 most skilled fighters in the game today and amongst top few in the last 10 years. The guy is incredible he beat a solid p4p fighter and made him look ordinary.

                  It was an astonishing and dazzling display of skill.

                  He made a skilled boxer look worst than JCCjr against Martinez.

                  Think about it: for 12 rounds Nonito looked a bum.

                  I'll always remember this night. It was like Floyd, but Floyd doesn't do it as an underdog. Rigo did.

                    I don't think I will ever be a fan due to his style, but I know now how good he is and realize I overrated Donaire.
