Comments Thread For: Guillermo Rigondeaux: Next Time I'll Be Explosive!

[BWC]

He was AWFUL last night. If I ever watch a Rigo fight again I will be surprised

[ADP02]

People joke about Rigo being so boring he puts them to sleep. Well tonight he put me to sleep. I was already tired from a long day of running around when I sat down to watch the fight. This guy put me to sleep. I felt myself dosing off so I would get up and walk around. Sat back down and next thing I know it's 4 am and I missed the fight. I just finished watching it on my DVR. I like Rigo but he stunk it up tonight.

Same thing happened to me. No joke.

I woke up thinking that I missed the rest of the fights.


HBO was really making fun of Rigo.

Ring rust but Rigo should have really blew this guy out in 2 rounds. He needs to fight every 3 months and try to get some decent guys in the ring with him soon.

Blame Arum, according to his ****** fanatics. They even blamed Agbeko, which was hilarious. This time his fanatics were given the come forward bum they were demanding. The bum shone, instead of the Cuban.

I didn't get to watch this fight but damn reading these comments makes me actually want to see it just to see what everyone is ****ting all over.... was it really that bad?

Even the Cubans and "sweet science snobs" are ****ting on Rigo this must be worse than a trainwreck.

Well he landed like 70 something punches during the fight. Remember when Gary Russell Jr was hitting air against lona all night? We he still landed 80 something punches lol

I was so relieved every time Howard popped in with a little dose of honesty. I LOVE technical boxing. However, technical boxing does not require long pauses and minimal risk. That's called conservative boxing.

Interesting comparison.

The Agbeko fight was hilarious. It was actually the safest fight that he could have shone in. Funny part was Rigo was prompted in the later rounds to move forward obviously because of the booing and people exiting the doors. What was hilarious was Rigo was chasing Agbeko but still afraid to throw punches. Agbeko of course wasn't throwing any that Rigo could counter. It looked a bit better moving forward, but there was still no engagement.

If only he was as exciting as his highlight video.

[Raonic]

Sure you will.

Next time I'll shine? Next time?
The ****ing time was now!!!
On a big PPV, new promoter, back on HBO, with a tomato can in front of him the time to shine and look good was now!
Rigo is a stubborn idiot. He knew the time was now and he chose to fight landing 7 punches per round and backing up the whole fight.
This amateur doesn't belong on TV. Put him in the untelevised version of every card.

Hey 7 punches i way better than the one punch per round Floyd wins his fights with.
