    That's not an unfair criticism. Even as a guy who finds Rigo fun to watch, unlike the consensus opinion of him, I wish he was more active in the ring (& fighting at all too for that matter lol). I think that's a strategy thing from the Cuban amateur boxing system cuz I see that in many Cuban boxers. Lara for example is guilty of it often.

      This answer had been given many times but people don't listen.
      It's not that we don't like them it's that when they're in front of opposition that clearly are not in their class they don't close the show like they're supposed to.

      Too often they are content to carry their over matched opponent 12 rounds. Fans don't like seeing that.

        I enjoy his skills but like you said, he rather score and just decides to stay away. He is not for the masses and unless it is a meaningful opponent I don' go out of my way to watch him.

          In theory, by resume, hasn'T Ward shown more ''action'' than Rigo's resume? Shouldn't I be a Rigo fanboy too? Or just Ward?
          nothing wrong
          but ur style preference is very unpopular...just saying lol

              Style preference? Exclusive? I enjoy each style off the p4p list.
