@@vincepica8836 did ali do well at age 40 ? Did Ray robinson who was better than all the guys you mentionned good at age 40 ? No, its not every great fighter that can last that long
I agree, he is truly a Martial Artist. Such a shame that HBO is lowballing him since he showed Donaire how to box, he doesn't even have an opponent right now...
Memo Tea asked in an relier post; "Really don't understand why people think that his style is boring?" Well Memo Tea, I believe that if Rigondeaux were a boxer of a different complexion , he'd be loved. It is just shameful but it just the way our world has been conditioned.
Of course he did, Nonito is one of the best in the world (I've only even heard of Guillermo from looking at Donaire's record) and another truly electrifying fighter to watch, what quick feet he has! Rigondeaux is simply Elite though...
Rigondeaux is great Bantamweight fighter HBO does not want to Air his fights..He's in good shape to fight anyone has great style, 31 yrs of age ..Great fighter, Showtime should consider Rigondeaux
I said MIGHT. Remember, in those days, Floyd was looking to fight Prince Naseem Hamed at 126-128. At that weight, although Floyd is the heavy favorite, this guy has a decent shot. In the amateur system, I think Rigo edges him.
Yeah before he bacame the greatest amater of all time.Rigondeaux is a double champion all ready and all the top ranked fighters are running from him.They wont fight him.Rigondeaux has absolutly everything!!!!!He is unbeatible.
Yeah mate Rigondeaux won in 2000 and 2004 andwasent allowed to partisapate in the 2008 olympic and was pro by 2012. Had Rigondeaux stayed amater he would have won 4 olympic back to back.He is the greatest fighter that ever lived.He is unknown and has a small fan base but is incredible and has absolutly everything,,His body shot should have a goverment warning,,,,check this vid out Rigondeaux Body shot v Landerous and get back to me
why is it going to waste? he just beat the top 122 pounder nonito donaire, i know hes 32 years old but with only 11 fights he beat donaire that says something about him, so his talent is definitely not wasted.
Stevenson has the record for most olympic medals mate but truth is had Rigondeaux been allowed to take part in olympic 2008 he would have won and had he stayed amater he would have won in 2012 also Rigondeaux would beat him. Rigondeaux is trying to fight all the big guns at the moment but they are all running afraid.Rigondeaux cant get fights.It got so bad that Rigondaux went 10 months with no fight and had to go to my country to fight a no body called willie casey and it was like against a kid
how could you feasibly say that?! Rigo is 122 (JR featherweight) now and doesn't gain any weight on fight night. Floyd's lowest weigh in ever was at SUPER FEATHERWEIGHT. Rigo is 5'5'' and Floyd is 5'9'' The fight would never have been made because Rigo is too small.
True but he cant get the fights.After Rigondeaux won his first title he had to wait 9 months to get another fight and that was against casey a far less fighter in a no contest.Rigondeaux also had to travel for that fight!!And hees the champ!!!The top fighters are afraid of him.He knows hees the best and so do the top rank like Donaire who is running.
He slipped v Cordoba.The only time iv ever seen him hit was in his last fight but apart that he hasent been touched.He is penomenol and his tallent is going to waste sadly.
Guys with weak chins get knocked out cold when caught flush head gear or no head gear, last time i checked thats never happened to Rigo in over 400 Amature fights and 11 pro bouts, (sarcasticly)guess Marquez has a weak jaw too huh, I mean he's only hit the canvas 9 times so according to some of you youtube dummies that gives him a glass jaw? If you want to dis Rigo without looking like a newbie to boxing then say he has a lucky ass chin. Jay how do u know what kinda chin a ten yr old has?
Because he should have 10 years of a pro carrer under him and be a world known superstar and be regarded as possibly the greatest boxer ever,,,,,I dont like him though .He is boring.
a lot of fighters had more skills than Ali. Ali never learned how to parrie punches or set up bodyshots, he depepnded more on athletecism like Roy Jones than on skills like Charley Burley, floyd mayweather, joe louis etc all and a lot more had more skills than ali
