Whose more exciting? Rigo or Wlad?

We all know the answer to this so I'll mention a better comparison between two boxers who are considered similar.

Who is more exciting? Mayweather or Rigondeaux?

[_original_]

No insult to Rigo, but when it come to one punch power, Wlad is probably inthe top 3 in the world in all weight classes. He knocks guys out with grazing shots. Ask Eddie Chambers.

That said, I appreciate the way GR fights and don't understand all the hate for him as he's a true master.

People need to realize also that Wlad is a true master and need to understand what they are seeing.

When Wlad holds it's boring. When Bhop does it, it's pugilistic mastery.

That's just not fair.

No, it's boring on both accounts. However, at least B-Hop is doing it against top level and respectable competition. Wlad clinch-fucks mediocre fighters after jabing them to death, guys which he could easily stop in the early rounds if he'd let a right hand go before the 8th round.

Rigondeaux easily. He doesn't do any of the spoiling, ugly, cheating stuff Wlad does. He boxes, it's not his fault his opponent aren't good enough to make it competitive.

Mayweather, and considerably so. He shows more dimensions and knows how to open up guys who don't want to exchange.

Both win and both do have skills. Both are athletic beasts for their division.

However who is more exciting

One fighter Packs Stadiums.

The Other UN-Packs Stadiums.

have a Rigo fans.

Ok, but that doesn't explain why Darchinyan made him look average too.

Like I said, it's hard to gauge exactly how much was GR and how much was a fading Donaire. It was blatantly clear that Nonito's reflexes were not what they normally were in both fights.

yea, so what excuse have you come up with for Donaire? Shoulder? Baby? Period?

Because only Donaire has distractions leading up to a fight... derpy derp.

Ha really? Povetkin has been the 2-3rd best heavyweight now for about 5 years. Try again. Hopkins did it against Calzaghe and got waxed.

I barely understood what you said, but if you think Donaire is still focused and at his best, you would be wrong. Btw, I'm not saying Nonito would have ever beat GR, but it was obvious he wasn't fighting like he normally did in that fight.

Rigo doesn't throw a grabbing/clinching/holding on for dear life/borderline gay p orn display hissy fit on the inside. /end thread.

lmao good point

[Szef]

Wlad is more exciting.

daggum needs to finally get a life.
