    Well people claim he's the best boxer they have ever seen. He is certainly not that. He's still a great fighter tho. But this puts to rest a lot of the ridiculous hype I've heard around here.

          Small.
          Old.
          Glass-chinned.
          Slightly above average power.
          Got some skills, but not on par with Mayweather, Rigo gets hit too easily for a guy with such "great skills".
          His best win is that overrated Goofy Donaire.
          The pros are not the amateurs and Rigo do not belong in the pros.

          He should just retire before he gets hurt.
          We being anyone with a brain. If he's not that good in his division why is nobody fighting him? If he is weak chinned why isn't cruz or frampton jumping at the chance to grab those belts? And another thing is floyd is in a completely different weight class. The people who talk about rigo talk about him in relation to other people around his weight. It's not like we're saying "oh, he not got the same chin as froch or the same power as foreman."
          He holds too belts which a lot of fighters would want to have in order to get good money yet people are quicker to fight the other belt holders. What does that tell you?

            Tiny super bantamweight suffers flash knockdown from a 5ft11 featherweight who is probably in truth more like a lightweight = Glass jaw.

            The guy has 19 K.Os in 28 wins a weight above and has fought nothing but Japanese fighters who are pretty much always tough as nails.

            His chins certainly not granite but to say its glass is ridiculous.

            It was a hell of a fight to end the year with he dominated all but one round where he got dropped, got up and blasted the **** out of the guy becoming the first to stop a very tough, game fighter. What more can a boxing fan ask for?

                You are out of your mind "yo". That clown ass punk in your avi is the overhyped scrub who had to retreat back down in weight to beat up on smaller guys while Rigo is fighting and stopping dudes that look like giants in comparison to himself. Broner got his ass kicked by a guy who was like a 12:1 underdog or something....and knocked down twice himself.

                  Broner does not have a glass jaw. He was knocked down by a powerful puncher. Khan however has a glass jaw and bambi legs.

                      They don't fight him because he doesn't make any money considering the risk. It's not like he's a horrible boxer and Frampton and Cruz sucks, he could pose a threat to them. But after this fight, I think both can't wait to knock his small little @$$ out.
