So he has 14 fights and 9 ko and he is boring? I see that you are following the path uncle arum created for you. the problem is that he is too good for the competition and hits too hard, the a fighter of the year and pXp #4-5 was running from him and even after a cheap knockdown got into a shell, I'm tired of reading the same bs...Comment

I'm sick of this whole "boring" crap. If his opponents are simply not much of a match for him, then of course it's going to look "boring" but Rigo shouldn't be blamed for that.
But anyway, I've been interested in seeing a Rigondeaux vs. Santa Cruz match for a while.Comment

Sadly his KO ratio does not indicate excitement in his fights. I am quite confident he could have easily knocked out all of his opponents if not most with the power he wields, but his style is far too safe to chase the KO. That is what casual fans that drive the economy aspect of the sport don't find exciting. If they know a fighter can end a fight early but chooses not to and drags the fight out instead, they lose optimism and excitement towards the fighter.
Why? Because he is a safe fighter that has the potential to actually KO his opponent but chooses not to. The KO's he accumulated for the most part weren't due to him stalking his opponents or pressuring them until they broke, no. Personally I find it amazing how he has such a high KO ratio without even fighting in an ultra aggressive fashion, but the general public aren't as enthusiastic as I am when witnessing the sheer brilliance of what is Rigo in the ring.
Sure his opponents run when they actually get a taste of his brutal power but the main problem is he doesn't do anything about it. He is contented with outboxing them the full 12 rounds, rather than chasing a KO with his overmatched opposition. That's why I believe folks call him boring.Comment

Any fighter with a little IQ will do the same, you stand your ground and hit a guy and when the opportunity comes again you hit him again, until he drops or run like adbeko, donaire or ramos, why go all out when you can win easy without taking punishment? Like I say is not his fault that he is so high on the food chain...Sadly his KO ratio does not indicate excitement in his fights.

and that's why he has such a limited fan base. Again, I'm giving you a personal analysis as to why people claim he is boring. You know the answer to it as well you just fail to apply it, or else you wouldn't wonder why others don't find him as exciting as you do.
Since he is so many levels above his inferior competition, he should do himself a favor and KO all of them. That way he gets a short night out and begins to create a buzz amongst the casual fans whom ultimately drive the sport's revenue. I mean, it would only benefit every aspect of his career. He would take no damage since he is so far up on the food chain, short night, general buzz, etc.. But he doesn't, and that's what causes him a dilemma.Comment

Jaliscience can you explain the politics of Boxingscene for me? Perhaps Bardock can. "Blatant Race Baiting" is obviously allowed round here.
