    He should change his diet and hit the gym and move up to 140 pounds.

    Imagine Pacquiao vs Rigo, He needs to cash out and what's the point of staying in your comfort zone? That 0 doesn't pay the bills.

    Floyd vs Rigo.

    Huge PPV fights.

    This is one of the worst threads I've ever seen

    Rigo is a natural bantamweight, he's already taking on bigger guys at 122lbs.

    How the furk is he going to quickly add 20+lbs of muscle on his small frame at his age without PEDs?

    I think people should take the time to actually LEARN the sport, then post. After all, its boxing that is your passion, not posting.

    Maybe he does but only shows his betting slips when he wins, like Floyd.

    A dumb thread like this doesn't deserve a more serious answer. :bart

    Very funny your post Rigo is a small 5'5" 33 year old fighting all his life as a Bantamweight 118 lbs your suggestion of him moving up is insane tell all pretenders to move down to 122.

    Making weight against pacquiao would be easy.

    I'm sure if the chance to fight PAC came up, Rigo would take it.

    Rigo too skilled to get caught by Pac

    Plus we know how much Pacquiao likes taking on guys who haven't been competing at welter, as with his last 3 opponents.

    Nonsense.

    Pac's left is way more accurate than Donaire's and Donaire managed to drop him.

    Rigo is absolutely amazing and one of the most skilled in the sport, but the size difference against a super experienced legend like Pac who is still quite a good fighter would see Pac by KO.

    If Rigo was a natural Welter or Light Welter, I'd easily pick him.
