    rigo was quoted saying he is the being best p4p, greater than floyd.
    one of the floyds biggest accomplishments have been his move up in weight, as also with manny pac, and other recent champions aka shane, bhop, oscar.

    how do you see the fight with rigo vs gary russell jr after gary wins the title and have a few defenses at 126

    GRJ is not only bigger but is also faster, with an excellent jab.

    He's got the remedy for Rigo.

    Will be a chess match but Gary gets stopped, Rigo will hit him hard before he hits Rigo, GRJ has time to improve though but for some reason i think he will get koed when he steps up

    I've heard this too many times,Rigo puts a boxing clinic on the kid.**** nonito likely beats him as well forget what Rigo does to him.Interesting fight though no doubt.

    If Russell didn't have brittle hands it might be a fight we could see before Rigo got too old.

    Russel jr from fighting Bums to fighting a guy that put on a masterclass performance against a top 3 lb for lb fighter in the world.

    Never gonna happen with the show/hbo gbp/top rank feud unless rigo gets out from under top rank's banner.

    Russel is too busy having a trilogy vs. TBA....his favorite opponent.

    May I ask what do you think would be the formula to beat a slick south paw who moves a ton?

    Honestly, who did rigo really fight before donaire? He should step up, but if he is not ready now, then when will he??

    Russell wins convincingly. Russell is the real deal. He is the future we've been waiting for. Hes so pouse in the ring. It doesn't matter who's in front of him. He has the full arsenal defense, speed, power, high work rate, stamina, movemement, intelligence, ability to adjust, counter punching, and most important against rigo solid body punching. Nonito lacks a lot of these attributes that's why he lost so convincingly. If a guy is running from you the whole fight you have to go to his body to slow his feet down. You have to punch with a purpose to wear down your opponent before knockout is even thought of in most cases but nonito swung wildly the entire fight with no adjustment very disappointing. Nonito was pitiful I thought. You all will see soon russell will destroy rigo in the most humble manner
