What happens with Rigondeaux????
Collapse

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 enjoyProfessional boxing is more about fighting and business/entertainment than the amateurs. Rigondeaux will never change; he will never push the fight and he won't move up just 4 lbs or take risky fights - he doesn't even want a rematch with Donaire.. 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.Comment

Rigondeaux has a lot of skill, but he's extremely boring, and this is the entertainment business.
BTW, I predicted this problem for Rigo.Comment

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.Comment

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.Comment

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