Why are people so upset at the fact that Rigo did rightfully win Donaire?

    Surprised you felt Alvarado vs Rios was boring but didnt think rigo fight was boring as well. Just a higher level of skills not much appreciated by the common fan. Seems like everyone wants to see street like fights rather than skills anymore. I can appreciate both

      Who's so upset? I've seen a couple, but a hell of a lot of Donaire fans are ardent Rigondeaux fans now.

        Maybe in retrospect it's not an exciting fight, but I feel sorry for whoever thought the fight was boring live. I was so tense watching that fight, the skill level was very high and any punch had the potential to end the fight.

            Every casual fan is just sour graping that Rigo busted everyone's bubble about Donaire.

              I remember you as one of the hardcore Donaire fans...you never believed in Rigo..and it's ok cuz how I said before you guys never saw him before he become pro..the little guy was allways a prodigy..I m happy to see that you don't downplayed his performance..you have my respect...Pacbest still missing...lol

                I'm a see it before I believe it type of person, especially with boxing. I saw it, now I believe it. Rigondeaux is one incredibly skilled fighter.

                  And speaking of pound for pound, how do u feel Marquez took his whole career to jump up the list and Rigo crash landed at 5? That says a lot!
                  Mares will get worked like Donare or worse by Rigo. Mares got a little taste of Rigo in the ams so I very much hope that for his sake doesn't think he is in there with another Moreno. I give credit to Mares for giving Rigo his props for the Donaire win tho.

                    I m sorry..I shouldn't said boring..I meant that I wasn't so excited as in Rigo/Donaire fight..I record and then watch all boxing in tv, HBO, SHO, Univision, telefutura, Astecatv, ESPN, CBS, Wealthtv and Fueltv..I find then all interesting to see, even the so called bums..but when I see something like the Donaire/Rigo fight I get amazed...
