    Plus Floyd's speed and athleticism at 126 was just phenomenal. Floyd is on a different level than Rigo. Floyd might not be the Goat, but I certainly believe he is in the top 3 Featherweights of all time.
    I agree i think Floyd beats him..but Rigo is a damn good fighter

      You people are ***ing ****** this fight would be a 12 round decision and both fighters would throw 500 punches combined (250 punches each) and it would be the most boring ***ing fight ever!!!

          look at these boxing historians, floyd was more aggressive and more of a puncher at 130 but im expecting boxing novice to know something about boxing my bad

            On an equal playing field I genuinely don't believe Mayweather is as skilled as Rigondeaux on their best night. I do believe he's a little bit smarter though. This would be the most boring chess match of all time.

            I'd take Rigo.

                If u think Floyd was boring when he fought at 130 u need to go rewatch him. He was a totally different fighter.

                  Mauweather has displayed more skill that rigondeaux over nearly 2 decades as a pro. There's no way to even argue rigo is more skilled.

                    rigondeaux is not more skilled than floyd. are you nuts?

                    for one his right hand is very weak and he's a one dimensional pure counter puncher. a master counter puncher but that's all.

                      I agree that Floyd is the more skilled fighter, but you're making some very broad and erroneous statements about Rigo. For one, Guille hits hard with both hands, although his left is stronger. For another, Rigo can engage when he feels like it. Ask Willie Casey about that. The man simply prefers the counter-puncher's role.
