Comments Thread For: Rigondeaux Drops, Decisions Liborio Solis For WBA Title

He's the one who ran from a packed 122, he still shook from the Loma fight lol.

I though mares, quiff, st+ and frampton were the ones that ran from Rigondeaux. Go figure, I was wrong.

[..David..]

Cant believe that was an SD i know he might be boring but he was obviosuly in complete control Judges need to be more objective boos shouldnt count in the scorecards

Inoue Rigo is an interesting fight make it happen!

Rigo is done too old these young guys are too physical for him

Mares and Frampton were never at 122. Rigo ran from the big boys at 122, dude went to hide at 118

Yawn Riggo!:

Rigo is coming you lil bantamweights, nowhere to hide or run!

Rigo is coming!

Argh, too bad for the bantam division, someone unexciting becomes regular champion.

Anyway, regular championship is not really one to unify.

Donaire vs Rigo ? Both old men are now in bantam, maybe there will be a rematch, if Donaire wants it (he or Schaeffer probably won't).

His footwork is good and he has good power in his left, but he only fights one way. He doesn't have a good chin, can't fight on the inside, doesn't block shots well and has a nonsense right hook. He's old now, so his reflexes are going so I don't expect too much more from Rigo going forward. Inoue will have an easy time with this version of Rigo. If he drops to 115, he'll do well.

... Frampton fought at super bantam from 2010 to 2016... he even got Rigo's WBA "super" belt at 122, eventually (as WBA stripped Rigo at some point)...

Frampton and LSC were ducking Rigo...

Solis was scared... Rigo usually plays up to his competition besides the one time he jumped 2 weight classes. He made Solis look like a fool. It was completely embarrassing.

Lol everyone here was writing Solis off before like Rigo was going to massacre him but they must've never watched him fight before because he should've already been a champ at 118 he beat the crap out of Jamie McDonell and got robbed in Monte Carlo. He has never been knocked out and Rigo is a good puncher but so is Yamanaka he hurt him when he actually decided to throw punches but the Venezuelan was game he was at least trying to make it a fight Rigo was just posturing most of the fight waiting to land one counter at a time was one of the most boring fight's I have ever seen there are boxing clinics where clean effective punching and then there is fights like this with very little action besides round 1 when Solis rocked him around the ring and the 2 rounds Rigo hurt him other than that it was Solis the smaller guy chasing Rigo around the entire fight.

I like Rigo but im just calling it as it is he decides at almost 40 years old to go 118 and gets rocked in the first round by the smaller man I don't think he has many big fights left and yeah if he pulls a masterclass he can outbox Inoue he can outbox anyone but if Inoue touches him its over without a doubt and he can be hit just look at his last few fights.

Bro do you even watch boxing Mares started his career at 118 where he won his first title he won the WBC belt against the Puerto Rican pedo Eric Morel at 122 also and Frampton unified at 122 against Quigg
