Stop this Rigondeaux hype

[kiDynamite92]

I agree that guys like Cruz are less than willing to fight him but Frampton's team said earlier this year they would like to fight Rigo but it would be in their back yard and on their terms, that's more than fair considering Rigo can barely get a name to face him and can't even draw. Rigo has to stop acting like he is a star since beating Donaire, cos he isn't.

In terms of p4p no. 1 there really isn't a true contender or name worthy of the title since pre-JMM IV Pacquiao. No one has grabbed that brass ring, GGG, Loma, Wlad, Pacquiao, Khan...if they have the year they might do in 2015 could lay claim to that title but for me, its vacant. And Rigo is far from that position in all honesty.

Like I've said for a while, the p4p list is dead at the moment.

The guy is the lineal champion. Why should he take the short end of the stick and fight in the challengers backyard? That's insane. Rigo is the #1 in his division and if anyone wants to take that away from him, they'll have to beat him and on the terms of the champ. I'm more worried about his legacy, he'll easily get enough doe for a living. Maybe if he beat up 10 more guys and beat donaire who was the lineal champ at the time later on, he'd be getting the respect he deserves. Facts are facts and rigo has just hit the ceiling way to early in the pro ranks and the only way for him now is down.

to me in terms of the performances that rigo displays, p4p I think he's the best in the world

Maybe his opponent was taller and put on a few more pounds after the weigh in, I don't know how many but its really not important because it happens in most fights in most divisions, its nothing new to boxing and happens every week, making weight at the weigh in is all that matters but you say the guy is a career featherweight so does that mean he was drained and Rigo gets no credit for the win? help me understand how it works around here.

Im not here to **** on Rigo, the way I see it he overcame the knockdowns and continued on to win, you have to respect that. Im just tired of all the excuses around here most times if a guy drops a division to fight he is drained or if a guy goes up a division hes blown up but in this case he dwarfed Rigo. If the man was as big as you let on Rigo wouldn't have won the fight.

Donaire could make weight and made a career of beating smaller opponents people **** on - maybe you never but a lot did myself included. Same with Paul Williams and so on
They can't have it both ways or maybe they can as it fits their agenda.

I completely disagree just because two fighters can make the same weight doesn't mean its fair game. Look at Donaire vs Narvaez. It was disgusting in truth and Narvaez could of got seriously hurt.

I am not for it regardless who wins. Bringing back same day weigh ins would be an ideal start.
What do you mean as big as I let on, you have eyes, you seen the fight and the two together. Did I imagine it?
He is a huge featherweight nevermind super bantamweight.

donaire isn't that big, he's blubber and still outweighed by the midgets(more so) majority of the time

So HBO would have you to believe.
Didn't they claim Montiel outweighed him by 5lbs? Yet Donaire dwarfed him.
He claimed via his own FB he was 133lbs in the morning with 3 meals to go vs Narvaez who only hydrates a mere lb or two and was coming up multiple weights.
They claimed him and Arce was around the same weight - You don't need me to tell you he was far bigger than little Arce.

Donaire has a good size frame and you can clearly tell he puts hydrates an awful lot. He hasn't his youth anymore and his body won't allow him to drop back down and you would have to be incredibly naive to think a fighter aged 30+ has outgrown so many divisions.

im guessing you also think mayweather comes in the 160's like it "looks" like

Why not meet halfway, 124? Or is Lomachenko still not ready like he admitted before?

The problem with most fans is all they seem to look at is power and chins like its the be all and end all of boxing. Not that Lomachenko is even a puncher.
The guy gets hit with half a dozen shots in a few rounds whilst giving up almost 7" height and 4 in reach and suddenly his defense isn't upto scratch, ey?

Rigo will tap that kids ass and all these lot hyping Lomachenko will suddenly make excuses about weight, he wasn't ready or claim he was a hypejob that beat nobody despite saying he was this monster that would K.O Rigo prior.

If Loma wants the fight all he has to do is say. Rigo will fight anybody, anytime, anywhere.
If you think Lomachenko is ready for the fight, you're sadly mistaken. Rigo will torch that kid.

Loma runs all over Rigo. Too big. Rigo is just too small with a weak jaw. This is the hypocrisy of your analysis. You take the biggest crap on fighters like GGG, then can't even admit when your boys have their flaws. Rigo has bigger flaws than GGG, that's just the painful truth, dan_cub

No Floyd is tiny and only hydrates a few lbs. He is always the smaller man in there.

Oh really? how long ago was Hopkins the lineal champ in his division?

Not long ago. He got it from Pascal. Hopkins would school Donaire any day of the week, especially the version that Rigo fought.

Do you honestly believe what you just wrote? I don't know where to start.

That you go on insane rants trying to take the most redundant dump on high caliber fighters and then "quit" the forum because you can't handle it, but have your own fighters you nuthug?
