    Looks like Donare will move up to 126

    Would like to see Donaire take on the winner of Mares v Ponce De Leon

    Donaire has confirmed he's going up, good move to be honest. Rigo will likely stay at 122lbs for now, fights with either Frampton or Quigg could not be too far away.

    Quigg and Frampton will go nowhere near rigo for atleast 18months by which time he will probably move up.

    I'd rather see rigo fight the winner of that match up to see if he can dominate the feathers or even rigo vs garcia.

    Would be good but zero chance of that happening the way things stand with GBP and TR.

    Salido then Mikey Garcia is a possibility though.
     
  9. Donaire has plenty left,I think rigos speed meant he had no way of imposing his style

    I expect him to still be the elite fighter he was before,theres some great names mentioned.moving up,salido would be fun however I think mikey Garcia might be a style
    Problem as well for nonito

    Some great fights

    As for rigo i don't know but I'd like to see him in with somebody where he would assert himself more,he has explosive power.his straight left is a fight finisher you wouldn't even see it

    Donaire will move up and he will be fine.He has a fan base is is very capable of winning another title.
    As for Rigo,as superb as he is,he is simply not fan friendly and will be tough to promote and will continue to fight in small venues with HBO paying the freight.

    Rigo is in the same place as Ward. Completely outclassed the best possible opponents. Not exciting enough for people to be interested in seeing him fight over matched opponents.

    He's beaten one very good fighter :nut. He hasn't cleaned out his own division, let alone try and take on someone from another. That's a very weak comparison

    Rigo is rumoured to be taking on one of usain bolt, tyson gay or Paula Radcliffe.
     
  14. rigo is way to small for 126lbs. He should clean out 122lbs and take it from there.

    Donaire is gonna fight juanma by the end of the yr , according to arum

    Bob is talking about Donaire/JuanMa.

    Rigo against the winner of Mijares/Terrazas would be alright I suppose and Top Rank have also signed Darchinyan.
