Comments Thread For: Photos: Rigondeaux Dropped, Stops Agamasa in War

[bojangles1987]

It seems like Rigondeaux pitched a shutout (aside from getting knocked down once) and gave this guy a severe beating in the process.

Was the knockdown legit or was it more a case of Rigo getting pushed or getting caught off balance?

First KD was legit and did seem to hurt Rigondeaux. The second was a bit of a push down after a few glancing punches while Rigo was still feeling it.

And yeah, pretty much one-sided outside of that round. Rigo really hurt this guy.

Rigo was knoced down twice.

The first knock down was a balance shot.

Rigo got too comfortable dancing around the Japanese and got hit , it was a flash knockdown.

The second was a bit of a push , Agamasa landed a right hand I think, Rigo tried to clinch and fell while being pushed away.

While he was pushed down for the second in the end, he was genuinely hurt in the lead-up to it. He wasn't badly hurt for the first.

Rigondeaux won every round except rd. 7. It was a one sided fight not a war. Amagasa really got beat up but at least he tried to win.

The first knockdown was legit. The second is debatable.

Thanks guys. Sounds like I'm going to have to make some time today to watch this fight.

Rigo is definitely #2 p4p, can't see how anyone can say other wise

I don't agree, his resume just isn't good enough. I fully understand that he has been avoided, but he really needs more meaningful wins before I can place him that high. He definitely hasn't proven himself like Andre Ward, the real P4P #2 (regardless of the last time he fought). I've been a Rigondeaux fanatic since his pro debut, but let's be real.

I agree with everything except for Ward being #2. The guy has not done **** for so long that he's retired as far as I'm concerned. Most people feel the same way.
