Both are great boxers with a slight edge to Rigo's more fundamentally sound style. Athleticism is a slight edge to Donaire. Size is a big advantage to Donaire who is 5'6-5'7 68 inch reach compared to Rigo's 5'4-5'5 frame with 66 inch reach. Chin is clearly advantage to Donaire who has faced big puncher Darchinyan and took his shots very well as oppose to Rigo who was stunned/hurt a couple of times vs Marroquin. Speed is about even. Experience clearly goes to Donaire. Amateur is not the same as professional. Rigo has not faced the same caliber of opponents as Donaire has.
Another big factor is age. Rigo is 32. Considering he is cuban he might be closer to 35. Donaire is only 29 and in the middle of his prime. Donaire's best punch is the counter left hook. Rigo got hurt/stunned a couple times by Marroquin's left hook.
I just dont see how Rigo is going to beat donaire.
I find it truly laughable that a Top 5 p4p fighter, 4 division champion, with KO of the years vs two other top 10 p4p fighters, would be afraid of a 11 win fighter whose best name on his resume is Marroquin and Cordoba.
Its Rigondeaux who has to prove himself to be worthy to step in the ring with Donaire not the other way around.
Cool. Then he should have no problem proving it by fighting Rigo

Vazquez beat two prospects that most didn't know anything about and than beat Ivan Hernandez, than got TKO'd by Arce. Than, Donaire fought him for a vacant title.
Why are there so many excuses for Donaire to not fight Rigondeaux??? You'd think if it was so easy Donaire, would have no problem unifying in an easy fight against Rigondeaux.Last edited by 4Corners; 10-14-2012, 02:52 AM.

What's funny is many of the same people saying Donaire is ducking Rigo were saying he was ducking Nishioka. Lol.
I think it would go the exact same way as this fight. Rigo would be worried about the power, it would be ugly, either Donaire hurts him at some point and stops him or Rigo loses a decision because he never fought and opened up.
