First time i've heard of Rigo since Lomachenko made him say nomas... He really shouldn't be trying to start anything with Inoue. Calm down old man.
You would think he learned his lesson & got humbled by no-mas-chen-KO Although I do have to give him props when he was trolling Donaire “Filipino-Phony” lol
He didn’t say anything crazy and I even agree with him. I’m not sure if Inoue could beat Rigo now yet alone a prime Rigo. Rigo comfortably beat a prime Donaire. Inoue went life and death with Donaire. Rest of inoues wins were C level fighters in very low-talent pool divisions.
The man QUIT in one of his biggest bouts. QUIT. Inoue has already accomplished more then Rigo has. A weak attempt to bait someone to fight you.
To be fair, Rigo's domination of Donaire was more impressive than Inoue's win over him. I don't think anything Rigo said was outrageous.
Rigo's win over Donaire was more impressive, but all the same, Donaire was always a better fighter at 118. He was never quite as effective north of there (and I'm not convinced Inoue will be as impressive north of there, either).
Possibly. But style-wise I actually think Inoue would match up better against Rigo than Donaire did. The big question for me is whether Inoue can really handle 122 as sturdily as he has 118. Maybe he will, and maybe he can even remain effective north of 122, but I am not convinced he will be as effective moving north. In other words, I wouldn't be quick to dismiss Inoue's chances in that one (prime Rigo). But at the same time, I wouldn't be quick to dismiss what you said, either.
