    This is complete bs rigo got straight up from donaires shot plus wod see framptons shots coming before he even throws them. It took him9 rounds to get rid of Martinez he wouldn't lay a glove on rigo

    So Rigos footwork is superior. Ok
    But is it so far and away superior? So superior that it will keep Rigo 100% safe every second of every round?
    Remember Carl is no slouch when it comes to footwork and atlethecism either, you know.

    Donnaire was very poorly prepared, very unfit, and unmotivated against Rigo. Rigo beat a very pale shadow of peak Donnaire. Frampton wouldnt be so obliging.
    Rigo likes to take breaks, stroll around, stay in his comfort zone. Carl might upset that nice little routine.....

    Im not ruling Frampton out.
    actually,when i agree to that post that includes recognizing Frampton's power and skills.
    Ever since i saw Frampton i could see a true champ in the making.
    and as Rigo is getting older i see him as the heir of the division.
    Just saw an interview post Cazares fight where Carl himself admits Rigo's superiority at SBW, its why he prefers to go thru Leo first.
    But theres a reason why a pressure fighter like Agbeko didn't press as expected.

    The last line of ur comment is very gd

    Agbeko pressed for the first round and saw how gd Rigo is, every time he threw a punch he got picked apart, Roger Mayweather did everything he could to get him to let his hands go and Agbeko simply refused...

    The bottom line is that it would be a huge mistake and massive error of judgement to throw a guy with the amount of experience Carl has in the ring with a guy who is widely regarded as one of the best amateurs ever, has excelled in the early stages of his pro career and has seen and beaten every single style of boxer possible

    There is NO rush for this fight to happen, the only person who wants this fight is Rigo.....

    There is a reason for this

    Rigo should be looked at and regarded in the same light as PBF, if Carl was a welterweight then no one would be saying he should be jumping in the ring with Mayweather, the situation is no different

    The Kid can straight up fight. Wouldn't surprise me one bit.
    Rigo's chin is pure glass.

    I'm more comfortable with LSC vs. Frampton because it would be a good fight. Neither one of them is ready for Rigo. The problem is Rigo needs to fight, and Frampton is the only guy available (LSC is GBP). If Frampton beat LSC then Rigo would be the obvious next step, unless they could get Frampton to fight Quigg.

    This fight is 85-15 in Rigo's favour, and that is being generous to Frampton. I think if Frampton can land, then who know's what can happen.

    In regards to the LSC fight, I think Frampton take's it no matter the location.
