Comments Thread For: Rigondeaux Climbs Off Canvas, Stops Amagasa In A War

My friend, rigo was never the problem, the problem was always the chicken opponent arum found to him who ran as soonthey felt rigos power

This is where we continue to disagree my friend. Bob Arum begged Rigo to go out and put on shows like the one he just did. Unfortunately it took Top Rank and HBO dropping him, Showtime showing no interest, and two trips out of the U.S. for Rigo to get the message.

But let's not go into negatives here. Last night was a good night for Rigo. He put on one hell of a fight. Exciting as any fight I've seen this year. Hope he keeps it up and with this performance Showtime and HBO who are really the ones who don't want him ( not those cowards you claim) will give him another opportunity.

By the way happy new year sir.

OSAKA, JAPAN – The one time that Guillermo Rigondeaux is out of sight from stateside boxing fans turned out to be one of the most thrilling fights of his career to date.

The supremely talented Cuban southpaw was forced to climb off the canvas to stop rail thin Hisashi Agamasa prior to the start of round 12 of their World super bantamweight title fight Wednesday evening at Bodymaker Collosseum in Osaka, Japan. [Click Here To Read More]

Yup, getting dropped by single punches from non-punchers. Getting hurt by pillowfists like marroquin and cordoba. lol People can't even accept this. Okay, fine, he has a granite chin.

There, feel better?

u mean when he was caught off balance and dropped by a jab lol ya ok how can he have a glass jaw when he gets right back up

ya bull **** if he was with any other promoter that fight is on arum obviously hates the guy and has had it out for him since day one

[Cinci Champ]

I hope bob arum can see this fight. He said rigo was boring, but instead he found puzzy fighters agraid of rigo as soon as they feel his brutal power. Also this is for the cowards mexicans who will not have more excuses when saying rigo doent make a show. Lets see what will do LSC who is a chicken coward mexican champion

hes been trying to give rigo a loss for awhile now he gave him 0 chance against donaire and ever since been destroying his career i dont care what anyone says arum has done nothing to help the guy nothing.

That's crazy, I had a feeling somebody like this would happen LOL

WAR RIGO! Can't wait to watch the full fight, just seen a few rounds and the height difference was insane. Also, Rigo looked uninterested in this fight, so that might have also played a factor. And these Japanese fighters are tough and resilient as hell. Hope this leads to the other champs in the division stepping up to him.

[DosRounds]

hopefully there is a vid of the fight.

LSC stop ducking

I saw one fighter on the ring, where was the War?

War ,My ass. Rigo outboxed this Bum very easily.destroyed his face ,and no one wants to fight Rigo.Khan is glass chin, that goes down and stays there.

[Eastcoast]

Good fight, Rigo did to Amagasa what Lara did to Angulo. Pressure fighters beware.
