Not rage. I would be disappointed because Rigo is a smart fighter and would never walk straight towards a guy who is trying to take his head off in a professional prize fight.

I expect better of him.

I do not know why people get mad about stuff like this?? once the ref says fight thats your problem if you do not defend yourself

**nivek535** · 07-20-2014, 09:34 AM

actually im not mad at all.
just disappointed that after waiting so long for rigo's next fight, it ended this way. a controversial ko (although most likely an inevitable ko), with little to no schooling show from rigo.

What would it be like? Who knows. What I do know is, that sort of thing doesn't happen to great fighters like Rigo.

people would love it. almost everyone who talked **** about floyd after the ortiz fight would flip flop instantly and plenty more would just revel as a God fell aong mere mortals.

wouldnt happen though Rigo being God and all.

Donaire knocked him down on a break. He's fallen victim to the same rule of protecting yourself at all times before, as well.

I'd call it a cheap bytch move the same way i did when Rigo and Floyd did it.

And the fighters are reminded of that while they're in the dressing room and during pre-fight.

Ref signaled to continue the fight, if a guy wants to daydream, look at the fans or even look at the Ref while his opponent is punching, its completely on him.

Don't see a problem ..... You snooze, you lose.
