    To me it sounds like he's saying that the footspeed isn't what makes Rigo difficult to land on and that it is the way he moves his body that throws people off. Isn't that how it reads? It doesn't even sound like he's putting Rigo down either, just saying what makes Rigo tough....Maybe they'll ask him again after the Darchinyan fight

          Sounds like sour g****s to me. If what Donaire said is true, what does that say about him?

            Agbeko is probably a worse style matchup for Rigo than Donaire was. Donaire is a pure counterpuncher terrible at creating his own offense. Even a fighter as limited as Vazquez Jr. managed to make him look somewhat out of his element by fighting defensively and not giving him many counter opportunities. A master boxer like Rigo is a nightmare matchup for him.

            On the other hand, the Marroquin fight showed that Rigo can be tagged and hurt by a pressure fighter. And Marroquin is not even that good.

            What I think it all adds up to is that if Agbeko has enough left in the tank, he has a decent chance of upsetting Rigo, though I don't favor him.

                Unfortunately it's us bloodthirsty apes, and not the 'students of the game', who ultimately pay the bills .

                  Thats the impression I got from his statement as well. Nonito is giving pros and cons about both fighters. While rigos foot speed is not that great to him, his upper body movement is superb and thats what makes him hard to hit. I didn't take what he said as sour g****s.

                    Well Barty your post reads like a real student of the game, not a "blood thirsty ape" imo.

                      Yup......Donaire vs Riggs was intense as hell. Radio city a lot of the makeshift boxing fans booed it - creating a false illusion of a boring fight when it was actually Donaire getting caught clean and watching his game plan vaporize.....boxing that pure is rare so its exciting to a real fan.
