    That is why the fight with Nonito is not going to happen.
    They think that Rigondeaux already merits top 5 P4P credentials ....

    I doubt it. Rigondeaux does make fundamental mistakes that Donaire can exploit. One is that he always looking for that big counter shot by loading his left hand and he rarely jabs to set up power punches. I can see Rigondeaux getting his record padded to 40-0 if he keeps getting matched up with the Ricos and Teons of the world.

    This guy is an amazing fighter and I'm 100% on board. I look for him to be P4P #1 in the next 5 years. Whe I watch this guy fight, I find myself being in awe. He's one helluva fantastic fighter. Very saavy and I hope TRP doesn't horseplay with his career.

    Rigo is a small man, he pushes it to 122 because his natural weight is at 118( he was 120 against Rico).He could find some hard fights at 126 with the kinds of Mikey Garcia,Russell, who are bigger and fast enough.But woudnt surprise me if he goes up and dominate the division.

    Padded record:rofl **** none of the so called top guys want to fight him, dam Rigo wants to fight all of them but they know that rigo is so much superior and light years more talanted its not even funny, now the definition of padded record is Doniare he padded his record on guys that were smaller then him as you can see what happened when he fought a guy his own size he had big troubles, Rigo would make Donaire and Mares look like B level fighters at best.

    With Rigo even at his age He is so so much faster and so much more talented that he is at such a different level that he could go undefeted
    into his late 30's with no problems, rigo is alway in tip top shape he does everything right.

    rigos a very unique breed of talent you dont see that often in boxing. i dont see anyone beating him at 122. the donaire fight would be competitive though.

    omg please, gtfo of here Mr. Smarty Pants. He will get his record padded, because everyone he faces, whether it is Mares, Donaire or any of the "top guys" will be made to look like they're the Ricos and Teons in the world. Dumb asses couldn't realize supernatural talent if it bit them on their own dick :hi::hi::hi::hi:

    Gary Russel jr just silently quit before fighting an elimination bout with a much lesser Cuban, Luis Franco, but Rigondeaux is in his own class.

    That's what I've been saying. He doesn't really box he just waits for opportunities to throw power shots. Donaire has problems with classical boxers, but that's not what Rigo is.
