    Better than Sugar Ray Robinson? Yep, better than Ali, yep.

    If you could shrink them all down to his size he'd outbox the lot.

    I am not joking or trolling there is no doubt in my mind he is the goat and at his best he beats anyone at their best in history.
    Whattttttt. A 122 pd RJJ would anally pillage Ring God.

        So what makes Rigo the best ever? His Donaire performance?

        There isn't enough quality opposition at 122 to prove he is the best boxer ever. I do however think he can go reign at Featherweight.

          As great as Roy was, the only fighter he fought that was anything near or a like Rigo was Tarver who put him in a morgue.

          On the slide or whatever, Tarver was always going to give Roy big problems.

          Now what happens if Roy fights a much faster, harder hitting, precise southpaw counterpuncher? Roy wasn't fundamentally sound, he hardly even had a jab. Rigo would easily time him lunging in.

            No. A resounding no.

              No simply no. He's a great fighter but Mayweather is easily a better all-around fighter than Rigondeaux. He's easily one of the best in the last 25 years though.

                Rigo was in the pro hall of fame after his first amateur fight. He would have schooled a prime Ray Robinson and won a 15-0 shutout when he was 10 years old.

                    Floyds a gimmick.
                    Why do you think he avoided Cassamayor, P-Will, Margarito, Pacquaio, Martinez, prime Mosley etc etc?
                    Because just like Castillo, Chavez, Maidana they wouldn't give a **** for his pitty pat bull**** and stand stargazing whilst getting popped - They would rush his ass and throw massive volume and keep it up for the full 12.

                    Imagine is Rigo ducked Donaire, ducked Frampton and Leo Santa Cruz, Mares, Gonzales etc and fought a load of Victor Ortiz level opposition whilst demanding catchweights, blood tests, not allowing them to wear punchers gloves whilst maintaining he was TBE!

                    Floyd TBE, laughable. He isn't even the best fighter of this era. Its all smoke and mirrors.
                    Anybody can look skilled against a guy stood on the outside too scared to engage.
                    If Floyds the best of this era, Joe Calzaghe is the GOAT.
