Too early to say, really. I'm picturing the fights and not seeing him do terribly well, but I've only actually seen him in with one elite level opponent, so that's not particularly fair. They're all naturally bigger than Rigo as well.
He schools Barrera IMO. 50/50 fight with Morales. Hell of a fight with Pacquiao. Pacquiao's foot speed, chin (not that the other two greats don't have a chin), and straight punches would make it interesting.
These fights take place at 122 pounds by the way. I wanted to include Juan but realized he wasn't ever that small
Morales does not fare well with slick defensive counter punchers. Zahir Raheem comes to mind. Morales also leaves himself more exposed, I take a Rigo victory perhaps. Barrera - not too sure.
Like I said I see him beating MAB and Morales, Pacquiao keeps it semi interesting due to his incredible power at 122 and footspeed and linear attack. Rigo is one of the best fighters I've ever seen hands down.
Who knows 1 fight against Donaire does not equate to wins over those 3 hall of famers ! I swear these boards go full ****** after 1 fight !
The same way everyone thought Donaire would obliterate Rigo before the fight took place? At some point you gotta look at the skills and throw the resumes and paper out the window. Look at what you see right before your eyes, and ask yourself what do they tell you?
The man has skills who can deny him that and so do a ton of other fighters ,I never knew vision garunteed wins against anyone ! He beat Donaire by decision its not like he blasted him out like Froch did Bute ..Lets not go over board ..God forbid he loses his next fight you people would all commit suicide ..
Barrera and Morales are technically superior to Donaire so I wouldn't go saying that Rigo could go through them just yet... and Pacquiao's exposive offense might be too much for Rigo's chin to handle. Oh Rigo is good, but I'm not going to favor him over future all-time great hall of famers just yet. :bart
