I'll say it... Guillermo Rigondeaux is probaby the most skilled boxer of all time.

[The Surgeon]

Bit premature no?

The guy has serious boxing ability though without question

How does he handle intense pressure like Mares and Santa Cruz would bring? Thats what i wanna see next

[!! Shawn]

Well now..... he did just have an impressive win and as we know when that happens the winning fighter automatically becomes totally unbeatable and the future p4p greatest and most skilled fighter ever on this forum but I have yet to see him display any inside fighting craft or even the ability to create his own offense without an opponent being overly aggressive.

Just because you are unwilling to watch, doesn't mean he hasn't done it.

Rigo is ****ing skilled I agree. One of the best around at the moment in terms of technical ability IN OUTSIDE FIGHTING - but the best of all time? Such a statement is an absolute insult to boxing. Also, yes I did see Rigondeaux outboxing Donaire easily or getting knocked out cold/ knocked down multiple times. A lot of experts picked Nonito by KO. I also saw that as a possibility but saw it as more likely that Donaire would be outboxed. That's why I've picked up some nice winnings from the bookies.

I understood Rigo's skills going into the fight, but NO ONE was expecting this one sided schooling.

There's no way you thought Rigo was winning damn near every round.

Pernell, yes. Hopkins and Floyd, NO.

Okay you're a ****ing idiot officially. Hopkins isn't better technically but he might be better tactically - we haven't got enough evidence yet. Floyd is DEFINITELY better technically though - and I hate Floyd.

They'd make him look like SRR in his prime. Rigo ain't your ordinary counterpuncher. The guy has a bazooka attached to arm.

You'd better have Mike Tyson head movement, and power to get through the type of leather he's throwing.

You're right I didn't expect it to be this one sided but expected an 8-4 type of thing. I still was pretty confident he would out box Nonito.

That's fair enough. I'm just mad at people that are downplaying this win. I don't think a lot of posters are grasping the magnitude of this win yet. I honestly don't.

Mind you, I was rooting HARD for Donaire. I don't ever jump on a bandwagon, unless they're the truth, and nothing but the truth.

he potshotted all night and was very, very elusive. with that said, it was a perfect strategy. made donaire look like a confused little girl in there.

Dude he's great but you're totally overrating him and making people hate him more by doing so. **** sake the guy has 12 fights, 4 of which have gone to a decision, has been knocked down at least twice already in his career and has already been taken to a split decision.
