    i think the big fight out there for him now is santa cruz. i'd also like to see him fight some of the other contenders in his division before he moves up.

    Rigondeaux has being dropped twice, once coming in with a jab from cordova in his 7 fight and first 12 rounder and against donaire coming out of clinch, he got up and put a hurt on donaire and had him running for his life or should I say an eye? in the final round, if Rigondeaux were to be white or american he will be elevated to a God status...

    He can be THAT boring... And as long as there's no pre-fight hype, unless you're a fan of his, or that style is your particular taste, then he's not gonna be anyone's favorite fighter anytime soon

    Overrated and he's got a jaw that's utter GLASS. He's a good fighter, not a great fighter. A great fighter wouldn't get dropped by bums on a number of occasions.

    Frampton will shatter his jaw.

    Is this the same tall, lanky counter puncher boxer, that Kiko Martinez destroyed? Hopefully Rigondeaux is being matched better than that.

    Top Rank is too arrogant with Donaire. Keep an eye on his Saturday. Matching him with Vetyeka may backfire. Vetyeka actually has a little athleticism and talent, hidden in that shroud of assumed semi primitive South African boxing skill. They will be in for a rude awakening if he has a chin to go along with it.

    I honestly think he is top 3 p4p with Floyd and Ward at the moment.
    However his lack of killer insticnt and willingness to go looking for the ko, especially at times when it was needed, cost him to an extent.

    Rigondeaux, Gamboa, too many Cubans going nowhere because of boxing politics.
    Andre Ward is the same. These three are possibly pfp 1-3 but without opportunity.

    Any analysis coming from a guy who has Floyd as World Level but Pulev as EliteTop 10 P4P, in short Pulev>>>Floyd, clearly knows nothing
