    Donaire TKO5 Rigo is good and with or without donaire his career will still be a good one but I just can't see him being able to handle donaires power, speed and technical skills

    His recent victories and the Darchinyan win are what give him his status right now, Rigo doesn't have anything really solid yet.

    Ramos was a fresh champion on his first defense, whereas Montiel was P4P when he got KTFO, Narvaez was a good champion as well and Sydorenko a good win

    give Rigo time to catch up a bit

    I really believe this will be competitive....I believe Rigondeaux can win....because I believe him to be more skilled the Donaire(boxing is about skill). Donaire has speed but Rigondeaux timing negates that. It is the size factor that is more important...because Nonito is big for the lower divisons....It also depends how good Rigondeaux's stamina is over the course of 12 rounds (including all those ametaur rounds) against a young elite fighter....

    But in my opinion Rigondeaux wins...

    I wouldn't even try to call Rigo's record a resume, yet. ...So, only one of these guys has a resume. :yep

    We can add the amateur resume to level the equation.
    At 9 fights in the pro, Nonito was fighting nobodies with a loss already on his record

    Rigo already run like a headless chicken in his past fight.

    Donaire would KO that bum.

    You didn't see Rigo 's last fight.
    And for you- possible teenager with personality issues- calling Rigo a bum tells how much you know about boxing.

    Donaire's obviously, but Rigondeaux has a great chance of beating him.

    boxing isn't just about skill. That plays a significant role in boxing but speed power footwork styles etc so it would be foolish to say rigo wins on just skill. Honestly I feel people that pick rigo to win this matchup is so they can say 'told you so' however if donaire were to win it's not like they have anything to lose.
