    I'm going to go check out my boy Rubio this weekend then. He's a great trainer and has really showed me a lot myself. Very professional, very nice guy and knows his ****.

    Rigo is a bit of a diva to be honest.

      He is. I think he came into the pro game with the mind set that "I'm the greatest amateur ever. These people can't tell me how to fight." Now its looking like he's finally realizing that to make money and get the big fights in the pro game, it takes more than winning and outpointing. He needs to go for the kill and keep the crowd interested. Especially when his name is on the headline. Rubio, Roach and Ronnie Shields all tried to tell him this but he seemed too stubborn.

      I like this move. He looked very good under Rubio especially against Teon Kennedy.

        Yes and yes.

        Hopefully a return to Rubio means a little humility on Rigo's part.
