Warringtons strength, speed, will power, intensity and non stop pressure would give Rigo fits. I wouldn't be surprised if he quit like a ***** again!
Rigo is a far better fighter, it`s just that he`s in his late 30`s and it`s hard to tell what he has left.
who is lol. Warrington is an excellent world class fighter who is improving with every fight though, it's time to give him the respect he deserves.
Yes but Rigo is still a hell of a fighter, Waarrington hasn`t been in at that level yet. I`d love to se this fight though.
Rigo cracks that man like lighting Loma was wayyy to big of a natural weight difference. When two grade A fighters meet but one is naturally smaller it's a big advantage. Loma would get KO'd if he stepped to Light- Welter historic Elite (similar)
Rigo is damn near 40 and a big part of his game was reflexes to go along with his skillset. We last seen Rigo humbled by Loma (although there's no shame in that). I'd need to see Rigo back at SBW in form before I'd be able to make a realistic assessment. Rigo that schooled Nonito would blow him out of the water. I don't think he's with us anymore though........
I honestly think Rigo should have stuck at 122 or maybe moved down to 118. He is pretty much untouchable at 122 and still would be and was serially avoided. For good reason mind, Donaire gets props for at least facing him and taking the whooping.
And that respect would come from fighting a small Super Bantam who is probably in his 40s, at featherweight? It would likely end up being more of an embarrassment for Warrington if Rigondeaux has anything left in the tank. I'd like to see Warrington fight Santa Cruz, Valdez, or Russell Jr.
That age is within the realm of possibility. He is fighting again though. He will probably be on a PBC card soon. It will be interesting to see if they match him better than he's previously been matched.
