Poll: If Guillermo Rigodeaux was 147 lbs.

[DeadLikeMe]

I rate Ward, Floyd and Rigo way up there already. People just don't care that much about the babby divisions. It has been that way forever.

It has nothing to do with size but the politics of boxing. 122-126 has way more talent than 147.

He would be the same position he's in now.

No, he would have the chance to fight several other top 10 P4P fighters to prove he's the best. As it stands now, he and Mayweather could never fight.

If Rigo was bigger he would be better P4P? What? You don't seem to understand the concept of P4P...

He's already better P4P. I was asking if he would be able to pass those mentioned up based on having better matchups within the top ten at 147 ish.

There you go, that is my point. If he was at 147, he would be considered to be better and more exciting. He did just what Floyd does but better and people call him boring for it. I don't get it.

Floyd retires again

Rigo would be in the same position paul williams was.

What? Too big for the division?

He'd be one of the better fighters at 147 but because he wasn't a draw, would have to take a very hard road to get a chance to fight the big earners.

Paul's issues at 147 wasn't because he wasn't a draw. It was because he was too big and dangerous for those fighters. They wanted nothing to do with him. Who could blame them?
