Would you rather watch Rignodeux fight or watch paint dry?

    Paint dry obviously, the way it changes color slightly as it drys is absolute class, a work of art.

    I really hope this thread was just to make a point and not a serious question, Rigo preformed brilliantly and won clearly, was he supposed to slug it out with the larger and arguably more powerful Donaire? hell no.

    Exactly,and before I made my first visit to the forum post-fight,I was delighted that I had just seen a perfect opportunity to separate us ha'co mofos from the ***** ass WWE crowd.

    Rewatched the fight again last night - enjoyed it just as much. Might even watch it again later. Masterful performance. Reducing one of the very best fighters on the planet into a plodder barely able to get his own shots off, let alone land them - all the while landing the harder and cleaner shots.

    You come across as a right helmet acting like you are the ****ing boxing oracle. So what if the fight bored some people to death, it dosent make them a casual.

    A fan of the sport would appreciate the performance Rigo put out this past Saturday. Doesn't have to be "exciting" or "entertaining" to appreciate.

    Exactly, Rigo fought excellently. The "amateur" made Donaire look amateur.

    *******s are a **** stain on boxing.

    That is the only way Rigo could beat Donaire and he was hitting him clean. That fight was not boring at all. People who say that is boring might not like Mayweather or Benitez or Whitaker fights.

    Seriously, my heart must have been beating 1000 times a minute while watching this live.

    After watching it again, you get to see and appreciate alot of the subtle things Guillermo was doing that night.

    To simply call that performance "boring" is a total disrespect.

    lol so boxing is all about one fighter chasing the other and cutting off the ring and the other just running. Can you imagine if both fighters came in to a ring with the same mentatlilty and game plan as rigo. neither would end up throwing a punch

    Yes this is what i mean. You wont even hear me call floyd boring because he isnt he is willing to engage and dosent just spend the whole round bouncing around the ring like an amatuer. So if im not a boxing fan then neither were all the fans at the fight who were booing rigo all the way through

    Funny because Rigo has been in such a situation before when he faced Rico Ramos and guess what? Rigo won via a devastating body punch KO. :deal
