    Rigo or GGG

    "He needs legacy fights, his age, hype and weight class are not helping him. In his weight class there isn't any challenges for him, he can fight all the beltholders in one night and KO all of them." Ray


    Who does this apply to more, and why?

    Rigondeaux already had a legacy career defining fight. Maybe too soon and now he has nowhere to go because lets face it, he isn't doing anything better than what he did even if he fought Lomachenko and beat him tomorrow it doesn't compare.

    GGG nobody big wants to go near him as well in his division, but the difference is Rigondeaux did get one Star to man up and risk it, GGG not such luck so far.

      Rigo did in 13 fights what GGG needed 34 to do.

      Rigo already had the biggest fight of his career, money and legacy wise. He will never top that achievement

      Absolutely no comparison.

        It applies to both but I'd say slightly more to GGG because he doesn't really have a signature win.

        Rigondeaux deserves some of the same criticism GGG is getting though.

            Rigo is already small for the division he's in and has always been clear that he will not move up to 126. GGG at one point claimed he'd fight anyone from 154-168 and was willing to go to 168 for Froch and Chavez, but changed his mind when Ward called him out. No comparison here, epic fail.

              GGG. Its arguably true for both of them up til the KO part. Rigo won't KO all the champions in one night, but he'll make them look like they just started boxing last week.

                Let me spell it out again, the same ***** applies to Rigo too. He just has less of the hype surrounding GGG and i think that's why he gets overlooked sometimes.

                  Rigondeaux fans exposing themselves as hypocrites

                  Rigondeaux can't move up a measly 4lbs? He wants rehydration clauses?

                  I can only imagine the uproar if Golovkin asked Ward for a rehydration clause and he'd be moving up 8lbs.

                  Rigo too small doe!

                    It doesn't apply to any of them, If someone of your weight class is avoiding you both Rigo and GGG suffer the same fate of this only thing is GGG is at the pinnacle of his division and is the top guy, when you're the top guy people want to move to fight you, an example of this you want?

                    Andre Ward wins the S6, Chad Dawson willing to go down to 175 to 168 for Ward and that's what he does, Stevenson also willing to go 175 to 168 yet Ward said to him he's not worth the fight.

                    The hypocrisy of some set of fans is beyond a joke in all honesty, Rigo and GGG are in total similar to their careers but people don't see that they see Rigo as a black fighter so they can like him and they see GGG as a white fighter so they don't like him thus is the racist cycle of some of these so called boxing 'fans'.
