      Rigo got a soft jaw. He has been hurt by opponents who are less skilled than Walters and with far less power. There is no logical reason to think that Walters wouldn't hit Rigo cleanly at least a few times and he only needs very few times in this match.

      There is more than power to Walter's victory. It's a mix of his huge power and Rigo's weak chin, combined with the fact that Rigo's defense, while good, is definetely not on par with Mayweather's. Walters would get to him and Rigo wouldn't survive it.
      People said exactly the same **** before the Donaire fight.


      "Rigo has a glass jaw, and Donaire is one of the biggest p4p punchers in the sport. Rigo has a low right hand and Donaire has a great counter left hook..."


      Then actual fight happened...



      Having power is one thing, landing with power is different

        No one called Donaire one of the biggest P4P punchers, lol. Walters got far more power than Donaire ever had. Don't make such a comparision.

          Donaire literally was one of the best p4p punchers in the sport

            Walters' reach is 73 in (as compared to Donaire's 68 in and Rigo's 66 in)... The difference is huge at this weight divisions...

              Yeah, of course he was, he had 20 KOs in 31 victories... He was a good puncher, but not anything like Walters, who is a great puncher, a destroyer.

                I completely agree. Walters should be fighting at 135 by now.

                    KO% is obviously important
