    You guys act as if Rigo was about to be knocked out.

    He could and should have avoided those knock downs, but he never looked as if he was about to be put to sleep.

    He recovered quickly in both occasions, and the second K.D. was more of a push.

    I mean, Rigo got up while his opponent was still celebrating the first KD

      I guess you could say that. Margarito comparisons enter my mind, but I see Leo as throwing more jabs, I think that is a huge asset for him. He has an excellent jab against inferior opposition. The Guevara fight made me nervous though. Leo was struggling with his movement for awhile it looked like a mismatch.

        He'd rather fight a sparring partner, then pretend he wants the Cuban.

          I agree. Amagasa's face looked like hamburger after the bout.

            Everybody who knows about this sport knows Leo would knock out Rigo unconscious. But nobody really wants to see that fight, Rigo is irrelevant. That's why he is fighting on Unimas, we really don't care.

              You are right. It's obvious Leo wants no part of Rigo any time soon, but he seemed to be open to Frampton (hand injury?), and evidently Scott Quigg has a fight already lined up.

                He's a poor man's Margarito. LSC actually sucks he just has Al Haymon make him look good by his top notch match making. I have no idea why people consider this guy entertaining, I find his style and lack of power/skills extremely boring. High volume arm punching isn't impressive or fun to watch to me. If he had some power that would help, he'd be like an Angulo basically. He'll be forgotten about pretty soon.

                  I wish Santa Cruz was as confident. Outside of rd. 7, Amagasa couldn't land anything significant. Let's not act like Rigo was getting hit in the other rounds. Amagasa was tough, but he only won 2 rounds at best.

                    Would he hell.
                    Why does this kid get talked about like he is some top prospect or threat?
                    He is absolute cr4p! All he does is plod forward throwing aimlessly throwing a load of arm punches and slaps.

                    He is a punchbag. An even less skilled Brandon Rios.
