Rigondeaux was simply on another level than his opponent who didn't know what to do and was scared to get counter.
Also people need to stop saying Floyd name when mentioning him.. Floyd is at least a level above due to being able to do much more and not get knocked down.
I think the closest one to Rigo's size or smallest FW out there is Salido and even he's having problems with weight.

Salido rehydrated for the Cruz fight up to 137, he's probably going up to 130 after Loma ****s him. On the other hand, Loma only rehydrated up to 129 for his debut. Loma 129, Rigo 125. Close enough!
Ah I don't care what people say, Rigo is class, much prefer watching him than the scrap that was Alexander and Porter (not taking anything away from porter, was a good win), but to me I found that fight boring, excessive holding, much prefer rigo's defence masterclass, do wish He'd go in for the kill sometimes though
Who can he fight who'll make it more entertaining though?
My sentiments exactly. Rigo is a master at his craft, a must see fighter for those who appreciate the sweet science. I don't know of anyone who can beat Rigo at 122. He'll be forced to fight no hopers for most of his career if he is serious about never moving up.
Floyd is rightfully the P4P King. But when folks ask me who the best fighter in the world is. I tell them Rigondeaux. I hope this guy can get away from Arum. I'd love to see him fight Gary Russell. I like to see that counter punching ability against someone with hands as fast as Russell.
