But 12 professional fights and now he is a better boxer that Floyd. Show some respect. Your thread and question should never have been asked.
    Fool, this ain't my damn thread.

      Rigondeaux last night showed a level of skill and understanding of fighting I have never seen before.

        Floyd never dominated a P4P prime fighter like Rigo. Fact

Meanwhile Rigo has stopped the vast majority of his opponents (8/12) and Donaire is the first and only one he hasn't dropped.
          he also fought in 5 different weight classes and is P4P one of the smallest guys in boxing so its not like he's in his 1st class or is entering the ring at 160 pounds. He's also still fighting world class guys which isnt easy to stop, even if you dont think they are on Floyd's level

              Floyd Mayweather has accomplished alot more in the pros against greater opposition, so for now I'll say Mayweather. Not that I ain't really impressed with Rigondeaux.

                Rigo got 2 golds! Floyd zero gold!

                Rigo face the toughest opponent in Donaire. Floyd ducks Pac, Martinez.

                no contest!! Rigo got this!

                  Rigondeaux is the best boxer in the world ( I personally put him 2nd to Martinez , but this is because I am a big fan of the great Martinez )

                  and I have been saying it for over 1 year ago

                  Mayweather and Pacquiao are something from the past
                  they fool people to buy watch **** fights for over 3 years now

                    I can't actually believe rigo has more votes! Prime money may will win if ever they fight pound for pound at 130. Prime Floyd would close the distance and fight Rigo in the inside. Clinch this guy and throw combos in the inside. It'll be an interesting match up but i have yet to see rigo fight in the inside, since he doesn't need to do that anyway, but ward or floyd, pound for pound can make it rough in the inside for rigo. which is a good strategy if you can't overwhelm him with your offense.

                      I was super impressed by rigo last night and a ill amazed.....but we have yet to see rigo have to fight inside....coming forward ..... Or severely pressured.....at this point yea rigo skill set is a ill higher but what Floyd did at under 140 is ridiculous he took people apart and not just sit back n wait .......and he's done it for 17 years n going now....get real.......
