    What are you talking about? I didn't say Rigo shouldn't fight Walters. I said saying he'll obviously get killed because Walters has stones for hands and weighs 20 pounds more than him.

      Bieterbiev should be fighting at cruiser for sure as well.
      U missed ward who should be at LHW from his 1st fight

        I should imagine so its practically a massive lightweight vs a Bantamweight.

        Why are people so impressed with Walters? All he has done is basically what Broner did and that is beat guys half his size. When he steps up and starts fighting opposition nearer his own size like Broner he'll be found wanting.
        **** this guy vs Rigo, Lomachenko & so on lets see him fight someone his own size for once!

          Rigo is 5'2 and at 122 rehydrates on a 118 pounder level, and the only reason people mention him with people one and two divisions above him is the same reason people need to make GGG vs Floyd a thing somehow . Because in an even playing field those guys are the Gods of their divisions.

          It's as if they think they are taking anything away from those guys by saying that ****** **** when in fact it just elevates them to this mythical level where it's just a granted thing that nobody could beat em in an even playing field.

          Floyd could beat Walters doe.

            So it is irrelevant that Walters is bigger and heavier than anyone Rigo has ever fought?

            So it is irrelevant that Walters' punching power is levels above the punching power of those who have shocked Rigo's fragile jaw up to now?

            So it is irrelevant that Walters is in his prime while Rigo is getting old and no longer has a desire to box?

            So it is irrelevant how Rigo decisioned Donaire while getting knocked down in the process, when Walters easily slaughtered Donaire early?

            Walters is not a bad boxer skillwise, he WOULD hit Rigo sooner or later and when he does, I just can't imagine Rigo to stay up.

              Well one is someone who ought to be fighting at atleast lightweight and the other is small for super bantamweight.

              Rigo outboxes him easy but between Rigo's chin and Walter's strength and size I don't like Rigo's chances of making it to the final bell.
