    Beat two of Mares, Nishioka or Donaire, or maybe a Montiel or Kratingdaenggym instead of one of them. I think Donaire is the key though. The simplest way to get into the P4P rankings is by displacement.

    Interestingly Ring Magazine has Donaire ranked lower than Rigondeaux at Jr Featherweight than Rigondeaux ... which raises the question of how the top 10 P4P is ranked, if it's ranked differently to the individual divisions.

    He should focus on nishioka ... He has tried hes heart out to get donaire. Not only does donaire duck but he talks so much **** about him when frankly almost all boxing fans i know love rigos fight style!

    As a barrera fan i always have a soft spot for good body punchers.

    Anyone know if nishioka has commented on the possible fight?

    Actually beat a few people, and probably move up in weight.

    Beat Donaire. He already is top ten ability wise in my eyes. Hopefully fighters dont run from him

    Oh and this is my ****

    Rigo's detractors say : what has he done to deserve a big fight? and when he fights the kinds of Teon : why is he fighting low level opposition? ...i would love to ask them: who should he fight?

    He wont because he will be ducked Badly. He's a nightmare to fight. He doesn't throw that many punches, but is accurate as **** countering your ****. The more you throw the more you're likely to get KO. He will be the new Winky lol

    Its a dumb argument - first off all dont amateur records mean anything, hes a ****ing two time gold medalist!! Its not like hes unproven

    Second, the big guys want no parts of him, they tryna wait him out and make it look like hes only picking on low level fighters I think

    Keep fighting like he did last weekend. I remember another Pac undercard performance where he really stunk it up but he looked very sharp last fight.

    Beat the **** out of Donaire, if Donaire ever grows a pair.

    With Mares and Donaire, he'll be top 5 easy. Depends how he wins tho. With fishy results and controversial decisions a W or L in a fighter's recond on boxrec does NOT tell how the story really happened. But yea, if he actually beats those 2 in the fans eyes he'll give Floyd or Manny a run for their money. Actually in my p4p list I'd put Rigo at #1. Beating 2, highly skilled, p4p fighters in their prime that's a rarity these days.

    Convince the others in his division to grow a set and give him a fight, guy is the truth.
