Rigondeaux now #4 P4P

[Showtime..]

Can someone tell me why he is overrated other than the belief you feel his chin isn't great?

He is clearly one of if not the most skilled in all of boxing. He totally schooled a top 5 p4p fighter.
He has some decent but not great wins to go with that in Amagasa, Marroquinn, Agbeko, Ramos, Kennedy, Corboda and so on. They're all world class or bordering.

Hes done this in 15 pro fights.

Won a world title in about his 9th, unified in his 12th. How many fighters have ever done this? and I'd be willing to bet the few that did didn't do it against that level of competition.

I don't get the hate its like one person says it and the rest run with it. If you think hes an overrated fighter then you're out of your mind.

I would argue that Lomachenko is far more skilled than Rigo, at-least offensively. His resume is too thin now to judge him, but after he beats Grado and Walters, he'll be ranked above Rigo.

"They're all world class or bordering."

What's sad is you're dead serious, .

Agbeko is a good win.

A "far more skilled fighter than Rigo" wouldn't have been bullied around by Salido, plus it's apparent that P4P Rigo hits harder than Loma, he's just not as active. Both are great fighters for sure though.

No one wants to fight him so why not.

No he isn't and Lomachenko couldn't even neutralize Salido's overhand right. Lomachenko does defend but I still think he stands too straight up for my liking, Rigondeaux does the opposite, he stays low.

Odd to see a boxer south of featherweight in the top 5, but there's no denying Rigo's talent.

The fact you got Golovkin at 3 and Kovalev at 4 shows how much you know. What has been Golovkin biggest win? Kovalev? I enjoy both of them but outside of beating past prime greats and never was boxers doesn't mean much. Although Rigondeaux hasn't fought as much as many would like, his performances are that of certain perfection (wise of skill). Though I do enjoy Golovkin he hasn't had a break through performance against a top opponent and neither has Kovalev. Next year both will have a huge year I'm sure but as of now... they have not.

lol what the hell...so do you

I have Rigo at 2nd best in the world pfp with GGG as the best. People never get it? Pfp is how good you think a fighter is and not who he beat. World ratings are based on who you beat or lost to. Pfp is based on potential or who you think he could beat so it's just personal opinion. If you don't think Rigo deserves 4th place then he doesn't. If you think he is the best pfp then he is. It's all up to who is doing the ratings.

[gmc_rfc_06]

I've got him at #2 or #3, I could accept either.

I actually think he is the best P4P fighter around right now, but given what Mayweather has achieved it's hard to move him from top spot unless he loses or ****s off.

For me, he is the best, number 1 P4P
