Guillermo Rigondeaux open workout & sparring video

Not too long but decent quality footage. Love the right-left combo he lands at about 2:02

 

he is going to be a star , the power and speed he has is unreal , the kid has it all , hopefully he has a decent set of whiskers although he probably wont need them with reflexes as good as his

 

I'm expecting a statement against Cordoba. I wouldn't be surprised if he blows him away in 2 or 3 rounds.

Future P4P?

 

its going to be a big night for Rigondeaux , its his night to shine.

 

i always forget how old he is

he's 30

needs to blow soon

 

how is rigondeaux pronounced?

 

good performance against cordoba then title shot will be round the corner.

 

"Har-is-son"



"Rig-on-de-ow" ("ow" like what you say when you bang your knee or elbow)

 

I thought it was

Rig-on-dowe (like Riddick "Bowe")

 

It's either I think, Atlas on FNF's seems to vary the pronunciation every other round

 

You're pretty close, rig-on-d'oh would be my attempt at spelling his name phonetically.

The American commentators often do that awful ri-gon-dee-aw thing though, lazy sods. It's not as if there's no-one they could ask for the correct pronunciation.
