    Is the age catching up to him? smaller division fighters tend to age at a faster rate
    i agree..i think they hbo and promoters got wat they wanted..they softened him up...his hands stay down the entire fight now..he's had 2 back to back lay offs, we dont knwo his lifestyle outside of boxing..and they turned everyone against him...if he beats these odds i have to call him an atg...but i really do think he is a lot less of a fighter now

        No, he turned everyone against him. Hes boring. He fought one good fighter and thinks the world should bow down to him. If hes not going to turn it up on the biggest stage, he deserves all the backlash he gets.

          Hard to say what was wrong last night.

          Inactivity? A weeks notice? Age?

          Either way, it wasn't what I expect from Rigo.

            You know, I'd like to see Rigo vs Caballero. Caballero outgrew 118, he'd probably get outboxed, but he'd push Rigo into an exciting fight and if Rigo is getting too old, Randy would be a star with the upset.

              I hope he stays more active and maybe he'll perform a lot better. I'm just worried that his last performance will hurt his chances on appearing on HBO again.

                Rigo looked rusty last night, not his usual self. Hopefully this suckers in some quality opposition.

                    He's 35. He can't afford long lay-offs and expect to bounce back anymore. He's at the age where athlete's start to lose their reflexes, especially if they stop practicing them regularly.
