    Can we all agree on this?

    Can we all agree that Rigo is just not fun to watch?

    He is boring and he fights in a non compelling way.

    Was there anybody that was thoroughly entertained by him this past Saturday? After watching him fight you can understand more why he is so hard to promote and get people excited about watching him. Even the most hard core of guy that likes the hit and run style had to be bored to death.

    Going into the fight I know I was thrilled to be able to watch him fight but damn I came away from that fight rather annoyed and bored. Im glad that fight wasn't the precursor to the main event. Luckily the precursor fight got my the blood flowing again.

    But honestly can we all agree Rigo is just not fun to watch.

      Why wasn't that the opening fight? Everybody knew the Rios-Velez fight was going to be much more exciting. The promoters messed that one up.

          You juss unedjucated of the sweet sciences. It's not hit and not get hit. Object of the game is to get the lowest numbers, like golf. Like I said, it's all physics and physicians. Brain surgery. Rigo is a committed brain surgeon specialist.

            not really, that fight agaisnt the japenese fellow was extremely entertaining.

            i didnt see the fight at the weekend thankfully, but it's just boxing fan's going to one extreme to the other.

            one bad performance and ' i never want to see him again ' ' most boring fighter ever '

            one loss = ' he was never good anyway ' ' who did he ever fight? '

            boxing fan's can be so tiresome

              That was a crap fight for sure because he doesn't lead much but he has been in some good fights. Hopefully the next guy he fights will actually fight and force Rigo do show more. I mean he's been off for a year and just signed the fight on one week notice lol. We'll see what happens next time

                As a fan i told most of my coworkers about rigo but they told mw they changed the channel in the middle of the fight it was hard to defend rigo and i dont blame the other fighter anymore for not wanting to fight him

                  He's boring in AND out of the ring yet expects to be paid big bucks for fighting nobodies, fighting once a year and not fighting anyone worth a damn in 3 years. The Ward syndrome lol

                    Uneducated my ass. Im the biggest boxing fan around. I appreciate a guy who can hit and not be hit and be scientific with it. It's about being able to make your guy miss then immediately make him pay. Not make your guy miss my backing up and running then every now in then hit the guy. You got to make your guy miss while staying in the pocket and countering his ass because he missed you. That's true boxing, James Toney style.
