Rigo looks shook.

But he's not.

This will be similar to the Teon Kennedy fight, except a bit more tentative...until Riggs figures him out and hurts him. I feel Riggs may want to be a bit more exciting to the non-purists out there- I hope that's the case and we get some combos/exchanges thrown.

Hopefully rigo looks good enough that Herschman and HBO will put him on.

I mean they have manny and wlad so they can't have another boring boxer that doesn't go for the KO.

It doesn't fit their action/excitement marketing model.

With him and Andre Ward I think there are times where they get out of the pocket too quickly and don't put punches together. I can understand with a vicious puncher like Donaire but I think this is a fight where he can put punches together and win impressively.

Agbeko just doesnt fight often...this is his third fight in 2 years,not active enough plus hes lost two of last three fights...should be easy for rigondeaux

Rigo looks relaxed to me.....his whole life has been Boxing so I just don't see him feeling anything but confidence in a place he has gone what 400 times? I hope he puts on a nice performance and HBO puts him right back on TV.

Nah. Agbeko's IBO title is at 118.

Rigo needs to beat Kiko Maritnez/Jeff Mathebula winner and Leo Santa Cruz to become undisputed champ.

he'll beat mathebula, lol that'd be funny to see. mathebula will be towering over rigo. santa cruz-rigo is a damn dream fight that will never happen

[ShoulderRoll]

If Rigo leaves Arum once his contract is up the dream fight with Santa Cruz absolutely can happen.

It will have to be soon because there is no way Santa will be at 122 for that long.

I think rigondeaux is suffering from severe depression.
