Never heard of this Rigondeaux fella. Is he any good? Heard he's boring, doe.

Lol. Sick Whitaker sig. One of my favorite performances in boxing. I never get tired of watching that fight.

Rigondeaux is not - and will never be - anywhere near Floyd's level. Floyd wouldn't have been dropped nor hurt by the likes of Marroquin, Cordoba, Donaire, etc. Floyd's offense, defense and chin are much stronger than Rigondeaux's. Floyd's inside game is 100 times better than Rigondeaux's. Floyd is exciting while he schools his opponents and he can actually fight without backpedalling the whole fight. Floyd has gone from FW to LMW, whereas Rigondeaux won't even go up 4/5 lbs. Floyd has an entertaining personality, whereas Rigondeaux is just as boring outside the ring as he is inside it. Floyd is the G.O.A.T.; Rigondeaux is just a goat. I'm sick of yall idiots who DKSAB claiming Rigondeaux is as good a boxer as Floyd.

Oh wow someone got their panties in a bunch. Are you part of Floyd's entourage? If so let me know which one you are that way I can look for you in the next all access wiping floyds sweat, clapping you hands after he finishes a jump rope session, and yelling hardwork dedication like a cheerleader.

Sure, Rigondeaux is an accomplished amateur, but professional boxing fans don't wanna watch the amateur "run and outpoint" style in the pro's. He doesn't even try to entertain the people. All he does is backpedal and wait for his opponent to come in so he can outpoint him. Floyd doesn't just do that. P4P greats like Floyd and Ward can initiate the action as well as counter. Floyd toyed with Canelo, but he didn't just backpedal for 10 rounds and potshot; he actually had Canelo on the ropes and he had the balls to stand and trade with the bigger man. Once Rigondeaux stops "footworking", he gets put on his ass. I'm not just hating on Rigondeaux because he's not American.

rigo has 8 kos.....

Great minds, brother.

Hadn't watched it in a minute. Watched it last week.

He had it all going against JCC that night.

Except the scorecards.

Agbeko wins by decision.No party for amateurs!!!

Oh my glob! Rigondeaux looks like he's about to have an emotion!

Pedro Diaz loves a staredown

Rigo is tiny compared to everyone he faces mostly and since he dont look up for no one because he sees through peoples souls, his eyes always end up looking at the dudes mouth

I think Agbeko will do reasonably well before getting KO'd. He's been training with Roger Mayweather so he will use the right hand-left hook combination a lot, with some success, before Rigondeaux figures him out and stops him.

I'd love to see Rigo stop Agbeko.

I was just checking out Boxrec. They must not think highly of this match-up. The site only gave it three stars. I would've guessed four. Another thing: both these guys are 33 years old. I thought Guillermo was a year or two younger. He really needs to get his ass in gear and fight four times a year.
