His speed appears to be greater than it really is, because of his run-punch-run style. He has a weak chin and gets wobbled or dropped every time he stands and fights (hence the running). Fight fans got no time for that. P4P, Floyd and Adrien **** all over him.
      Rigo is fighting at 122 when he has the physique of a 115. And in my opinion is like floyd his style, boring for those who do not know, but people who appreciate good boxing knows enjoy

        It's tragic. Rigo is one of the finest fighting machines seen in a ring in ages. Awful shame there aren't suitable opportunities for him. Shame for him and shame for us.

          Rigondeaux has a lot of skill, but he's extremely boring, and this is the entertainment business.

          BTW, I predicted this problem for Rigo.

              Is it entertainment or a sport? If it's a sport, then who gives a **** about how much money.a guy makes. Rigo will keep winning and keep fighting because he's a fighter. Who cares about anything else.

                He devours Klitschko then crosses over to devour Anderson Silva and Jon Jones -- at the same time.

                  Schafer should give him the same $3 million offer he offered to Donaire to fight Mares.

                    One of the best technical boxers in the world, but he doesn't have a very marketable style.

                    Only two things sell in the mainstream. Power and Personality.

                    If a casual fan saw rigo fight he'd probably think boxing was boring, and then watch mma or something.

                      It's both. To us, it's a sport. To the majority where most of the revenue comes from, it's entertainment.
