Is Rigondeaux THE most underrated boxer out there?

Rigo is the best in the game. Too bad his too small for more popular opponents to prove and showcase his greatness.

chocolate gonzalez is one of the most talented, but get little mention

Yes, people actually think Ward is better than him?

I think Guillermo Rigondeaux is one of the most underrated active boxers today. The guy is probably the greatest amateur boxer of all time and easily defeated a top ten pound for pound boxer in only his 12th pro fight. He's also one of the most technically proficient active fighters today and I honestly believe he would truly give Floyd a run for his money if they were the same size.

So why does this dude get so much hate?

Probably near the most overrated tbh. He's FAR from underrated if anything. Being hated for his nyquil type style doesn't mean he's underrated...

Gonzalez may very well be an ATG in the making. He is definitely underappreciated, even among boxing fans.

I don't know about Narvaez though. He deserves credit for longevity and has some ok wins, but his non-effort in the biggest fight of his career (Donaire) was disgraceful.

Narvaez is an awesome fighter, its that no one pays attention to those weights and dont know the things Narvaez is doing.

Same with Cruiserweights cuz the last time Cunningham was IBF 200lbs champ he had beaten the other three belt holders of the time (jones, huck and krystof) already at some point. Two in World title fights and he beat jones when he himself was a prospect, but Jones had fought for a title twice already at that point only to become a champ later on. Cruisers get no attention, so alot of people may not realize and appreciate Cunningham for this.

nah. He's anywhere from top 4-8 P4P on most lists. Having crappy promotion and attendance is a different issue.

He's Max K approved.
