Rico's chin

[nivek535]

I don't see why anyone decent wouldn't want to fight him. He's looked vulnerable against guys no one has heard of. Fact is his handlers are milking that donaire win and know he's beatable.

no one has heard of because that guy doesnt even belong in 122!!! hes a 126 fighter who NEVER once in his career step foot in 122 division lol.
talk about draining opponents loloolloll MILK THAT DONAIRE WIN.

War Rico!!!!!!

LOL i know right.
rico (ramos) got stopped by rigo

Have nothing against Rigo, but his fans, who always say that he gonna school everybody are annoying. He was dropped and hurt by bums and some comparisons with Marquez's chin are unaccetable. Juan was dropped by big punchers and even then, he wasnt holding for dear life like Rigo in Amagasa fight.

Like I said, biased ass fans saying how he gonna school Loma are idiots. If Rigo got hurt by bums like Cordoba, Marroquin and Amagasa, what Lomachenko's punches gonna do to him? Vasily is not a huge puncher, but he has enough pop to drop Rigo multiple times and knowing his accuracy and work rate he will land his punches for sure...

Rigo's chin will be broken if he comes out of the closet and faces Lomachenko.

Rigondeaux is chinny, yes.

But anyone who doesn't think Rigondeaux is one of the best fighters in the sport must be too busy studying at clown college to pay attention.

The way people talk about Rigondeaux like he's a prospect is ******, he's already walked the walk. 475-12, two Gold Medals. 15-0, 10 KO's, Lineal Super Bantamweight Champion.

'But he got knocked down doe!!!'

he got hurt on his way up as a professional. i think he's been down 4 times at this point in his pro career.

it's not like he's fighting HW, either. he's getting dropped by tiny little guys hwo can usually take eachother's punches for several rounds.


i think it was mostly inexperience, but he had a lot of trouble with ricardo cordoba after he got shaken up.


i don't think he's got a great chin. it's not glass, but it's pretty clearly not good.

That was me who called him porcelain. I didn't say his chin. I said him. He's so ****ing soft. He can't ****, and I understand he doesn't have to but he CANT if he wanted to. That's my point. 15 PRO fights....

Edit: ALSO his chin isn't that great either.

yeah, he's so soft that after getting dropped twice by a much bigger fighter he beat the living **** out of that fighter and made him quit in the 11th.

what a ****in' softie that guy who fights for a living is.



as for the topic, his chin obviously is a little shaky but his recovery is top notch.

if there's a fighter i'd comapre rigo to, it's tomasz adamek - fights much bigger men, gets dropped occasionally, but always ends the fight on his feet.

He's chinny, overhyped, beatable, etc, still holds the title at 122 and NO fighter at that weight wants to fight him, ko him n get the crown, interesting.

The times I've seen him give a little has been by guys with size over him. Rigo isnt a big 122.. I tend to forget that sometimes when I critisize his chin. Marroquin is big, Cordo is big, Ama is big. A couple pounds of weight is a huge deal at the lower weight classes. But his chin has held up well. Does anyone really think Salido beats Loma without that size diff? It's no different with the guys Rigo fights except Rigo is a smaller 122 than Loma is at 126. Rigo is very small, even for 122 and he's incredibly lean and muscular already I dont see how he can realistically be expected to fight at 126.
