Comments Thread For: Isaac Dogboe vs. Jessie Magdaleno: Afterthoughts

Dogboe would be a great comeback fight for Rigondeaux.

Who likes to see Rigo again? Even before he quit against Loma, fans do not want to see him.

Dogboe vs Rigo will be exciting to watch but I tip the young man to beat the old skillful warrior just like Hurd did to Lara.

I don't think he had much of a choice. He was supposed to fight Juarez, his mandatory, last year. Dogboe took over as mandatory when he beat Juarez. If he fought someone else he would've been stripped of the belt.

Thats right. I forgot about that. Greenk coming.

Dogboe looked violent, vicious and tough but IMO Magdaleno was extremely rusty from being off so long. No way Dogboe should've been his return fight. Arum screwed Jesse a bit IMO.

Hopefully they can fight again.

It was viewed by many as a fairly safe bout. Dogboe was seen as the crude, limited, short African opponent, who was gassing at the time he stopped Juarez in round five. Magdaleno was expected to use his height and better outside boxing skills to win. Dogboe's heart, determination, gas tank, and relentless attack were a pleasant surprise.

Dogboe is a come forward pressure fighter with heart. The type of opponent that Rigondeaux needs to be paired with. I'm just saying that would be a real good matchup.

I disagree with the notion that Magdaleno didn't show ring rust; it was apparent. Not the reason he lost though, just had a very bad game plan (along with that dumb macho stuff he pulled) against a relentless foe who worked him over and didn't let off the pressure one bit. Dogboe, although flawed, put on a hell of a performance. Terrific fight overall.

All top fighters should steer clear from manny robles. All his fighters show the same defensive flaws. Im a big Oscar Valdez fan but if he doesnt go to a better defensive minded coach his career will be cut very short.

As for magdelano, every punch he landed on Dogboe in the 1st 3rds buckled his knees, again its that horrible defense hes taught. None if robles guys bring their hands back up.
