    Im convinced rigo is really better than floyd technically but i dont think he'd shine vs lsc when he couldnt vs a guy like cordoba. I do believe the sd was bs tho. Floyd struggles vs a good pressure fighters too, hell even crappy ones like baldomir he failed to impress. Thats seems to be common among most technical fighters tho..

      Even the best can't look good against everyone. It's an unrealistic expectation, and I think we're all vulnerable to thinking that way.

        Now I'm craving some Sanchez vs Nelson and Rigo vs Donaire. Lol

            Santa Cruz will get an absolute beating from Rigo, 10x worse than what Donaire got.

            He throws long punches with very little power, good luck doing that against the most skilled fighter on the planet with his lightning speed, razor sharp counter-punches and power - a couple of rounds and Santa Cruz goes from high work-rate to gun shy.

            Nobody is touching Rigondeaux, he's just that good.

              Thats exactly what im saying thats is why i dont expect rigo to shine vs lsc...maybe not even kiko.. it happens, bad style match up no matter how technical you are..

                Did you see LSC against that flyweight southpaw from like the Domican republic or something? He looked absolute a55 when shown movement. Actually got his ears boxed off for good spells.

                He is typical NSB hypejob, I won't even credit Rigo beating him to a pulp. He is trash. Small, poor mans Nathan Cleverly.

                Only thing good about him is his workrate. Very ordinary fighter picking on midgets and old men.
                Seems he is targeting the winner of Frampton vs Kiko anyway both of which whip that boy.

                    What does Cordoba and Santa Cruz have in common? Werent you and the others talking about Donaire would KO Rigo cause Cordoba dropped him? There's no 50/50 anything vs Santa Cruz. The kid isnt very good at all.

                    You been saying "you cant ignore the Cordoba fight" since the build up to the Donaire fight.
