    Battle between 2 slick boxers with power. Let's say Rigo has some success moving up to Featherweight no problem. How well do you think Rigo would do against a skilled boxer with movement like Pedroza? Would Pedroza prove to be too good and too dirty even for Rigo or could Rigo find some success with landing his left hand counters?

    RiGOATdoe KOs or brutalizes every fighter from 118 to 126 except possibly Willie Pep. And "fighter" here also includes MMA fighters. RiGOATdoe KTFOs Demetrious Johnson and Henry "Only One Olympic Gold Medal" Cejudo.

    Pedroza beats the Hell outta Rigo and the front running Cuban retires on his tool in about 9.

    The fight was at 130 against a lightweight (Lomachenko weight 137-138) and Rigondeaux was shot. Try again.

    Pedroza was shot when he fought McGuigan, took a beating, and still showed the heart to hang in there and fight.

    Try again. Rigo is a front runner. He doesn't have the balls to beat Pedroza, and he's not more skilled.

    Rigo is actually one dimensional in that he fights one damn way and can't operate outside of being a counterpuncher.

    Pedroza could do it all.

    Pedroza by a wide decision over 15. Things start out on an even keel, but Pedroza grimly escalates his punch output and shows Rigo who's the boss by hitting and punishing the Cuban on every square inch of his body, except mayce for the bottoms of his feet. Ped busts Rigo's balls good while he's at it, but apologizes for it later ...lol...
    Like @robert ungurean said...24/7....Pedroza was superior.
