The sad part of Rigo winning

[Banderivets]

This is why belts are important. Rigondeaux doesn't need to worry about being entertaining as long as he holds the titles.

Thank You!

That's the first thing I thought yesterday when the 12th round was over. How much sweeter this win would be if his family was here.

I hope they can find a clean and safe way to make that happen. If he can generate some more decent paydays it will help.

Thank You!

Amen to that bro. People act like they're not. They friggin are. If Rigo owns 2 and you don't wanna fight him, you're choices for the title are literally cut in half. Hopes he gets the other 2.

I don't care how much the casual fan or the uneducated brawl lovers don't like Rigo winning, that performance was some of the best I've ever seen and I loved all 12 rounds of it. And I'm going to watch it like 5 more times this week, maybe more.

I'm on the seventh replay..

But I'm only re-watching because of loud 'we' are and can't hear the brilliant commentary..

In Rigo's defense, Mayweather was considered boring his entire life.

Rigo's just going to have to learn the native language and learn how to sell fights outside the ring.

I hate the pretentiousness of boxing fans. Rigo is obviously a great fighter, but it was just a boring fight to watch for most. That doesn't make anyone less of a boxing fan because they weren't entertained by it.

Yeah, you can be a great fighter but produce a boring spectacle.

He was considered boring until his legs left him. Now his fights are considered entertaining, he is walking fighters down.

Technical fighters are more appreciated in (continental) Europe. He could live in Spain (where they speak his langauge) and fight in Germany.

Terrazas/Mijares (WBC title fight) is co-promoted by Top Rank, so that's one option for Rigondeaux. Romero (IBF titlist) is promoted by Shaw/Thompson Boxing, so no issues there. Rigo will no longer have to chase someone for a shot, cuz now he's at the top.
