    Obviously Rigo.


    I'm not sure what makes Broner a better "athlete" like people keep saying, he's far more static, not as reflexively sharp, probably a bit slower. He hits harder and has demonstrated more of an inside game but none of that really speaks to what is commonly described as athleticism.

    Rigo by a mile. And Broner isn't that athletic. He's pretty static. Footwork is slow as hell. Rigo moves so much better than him - upper body, footwork, etc. All round Rigo is just far superior.

    Skill wise Rigondeaux is on another planet to Broner. Rigo is a professor of the sweet science and Broner is just a student.
    The Rigondeaux that won gold in the Sydney 2000 Olympics was more skillful and technically superior to Broner.

    Rigo has some serious skills
    Broner lacks footwork.

    Both are great @being them.
    But Rigo has better boxing fundamentals.
