      Chuky Flores got heart ; still ready to fight rigo . Unlike his fellowcontryman panticruz, and mares , and unlike the joke of Carl. The rabbit framton .

          I'm pumped for this one! About time they sorted this situation with the interim title/Super Bantam its been like two years now. So Guillermo is finally going to face a real contender with a rugged style that's sure to press him and not give him space to use the jab and limit his footwork but Moises lateral movement, defense and stamina is **** however he makes up for that with a lot of heart and volume from all angles and we seen Rigo get caught by a guy with a similar awkward style and comparable in size in Hisashi Amagasa so this kid has a shot.

          Still despite the age and height disadvantage Rigo is too cute in there and Moises is open to for big shots and can get easily picked off.

            Rumor is this is going to be on the undercard of Kov. / Ward 2.

              Is Flores legit? By that I mean, enough of a challenge to justify keeping Rigo in the P4P? I've got a ton of respect for Rigo and think he's the slickest boxer alive, but his accomplishments are about 10 steps below what I think he's capable of. Really hoping to see him land some good fights before he gets old(er).

                Rigo needs to move up. Best thing for him is to get a title northbound. He needs new press

                  this is a very good fight for both men. if flores wins he's the man in his division. if rigo wins it adds a lot to his resume.

                    I thought this fight was already signed, jesus ****in christ. Well, at least an agreement was reached. Rigo is as bad as Adonis right now, all this inactivity. He's fortunate that Flores has been just as inactive.
