Ah...if only more fighters had this attitude.

Not a big fan of Mcdonnell but you've got to admire the willingness. Quigg and Frampton can talk all the **** they want about it's a business, blah, blah,.... but clearly didn't fancy the 0 on their records.

Not a fan of the McDonnell brothers, they bore me to death and i usually take their fight as an opporunity to take a dump or get food or something if they're fighting on an undercard, although Jamie has been better recently.

I like his willingness though and i'm sure he would happily jump in with Rigo. He seems the kind of fighter who will get in with whoever is put in front of him. He's extremely tall for a bantamweight too, he should be able to move up no problems, maybe even make him a bit stronger. He has a 6 inch height advantage on Rigo and a massive reach advantage. It could be pretty interesting.

Lol he expects to beat Rigo?
He's gonna have to fight a lot better than he usually does that little flick of a jab one in a while won't be enough for someone who will be looking to counter you all night but sure by all means fight him I'd love to see those McDonnell brothers get a hiding.

I admire the attitude and wish more fighters thought like this. Rigo would **** this guy up, though.

Gotta admire the guy's work ethic. Thing is though, the pilot of the Hindenburg aimed to land safely at Lakehurst... but things don't always work out now do they?

[SteveM]

Great attitude. He is a great technician and probably the most under-rated champion that Britain has.

[Corelone]

All good, but he hardly "did a job" on Tomoki. I didn't have it that way at all.

i feel like all this inactivity affects rigo more than we think. the guy is already old too. Too bad lsc and frampton were too scared of him
