I think its an absolute disgrace to even put rigo in the same sentence as mayweather , theres nothing that rigo can do better then floyd , and how can you rank someone with like 13 fights p4p better than floyd. I think some people just hate on floyd so much there coming up with any crap they can to not rank him #1.Comment

Floyd has no cubans on his resume. That tells something! Too much footwork and ring generalship to share the ring with. Rigo executioned so well against Donaire he made the pinoy look mediocre like Billy Dib. On the other hand, Floyd's love to fight orthodox past its prime fighters like Mosley, DLH and Cotto and latinos with no defense at all tells u that it is a mystery on how well or bad he will look against someone as crafty, one of a kind stud like Rigo.Comment

First look at the intangibles of each fighter, the bolded is with out question, can argue with the others.
Handspeed - Equal
Defence - Rigo
Power - Rigo
Footwork - Rigo
Offence - Floyd
Floyd has always had trouble with lefties compared to orthodox fighters and the Judah fight (yes he kicked his ass in the end) is the blue print of this match up p4p. Rigondeaux is light years ahead of Zab but Zab gave Floyd lots of trouble early on with his athletic talent and movement, Rigo the master would go one further and beat Floyd. Rigondeaux on the other hand has dealt with 'speed' boxers a million times in the amateurs and it showed when he totally negated Donaire last year. I just envisage Rigo controlling the pace of the fight, Floyd having to lead and trying straight rights while Rigo moves him around the ring with his superior footwork and potshots with his own left. Floyd wouldn't be able to come forward recklessly either because Rigo can crack and his shoulder roll defence is also completely nullified by Rigo's stance.

I don't know man. Whoever you vote for you full of ****.
Neither guy has fought anyone that is remotely similar to the other. You have no idea how the fight would play out if they were the same weight and if they went at it head to head. Comparing resumes only works when there are opponents on that resume that can give you a gauge about how a certain fighter would deal with a certain style.
And Zab Judah and Demarcus Corley don't fight like Rigo.Comment
