Is Rigondeaux to blame for his wasted career?

The dude is a legend and on the way to retirement. TF are you smoking?
The man had 400+ amateur fights, is ancient for the weightclass. Utterly humiliated P4P Donaire and starts to look like a shadow of his former self.

troll thread.

 

Rigo is so misunderstood and under appreciated its almost criminal.

 

Rigo's pro career could've been a lot more than it was. Still an ATG amateur and one of the top 5 talents to ever step in a ring. He has that Donaire win to make his pro career still pretty damn decent.

 

Golovkin is in the same boat and he's 34.

 

Good post :thumbsup

The Golovkin comparison is interesting. If Rigo was 'more exciting' he'd be ruining fools, disfiguring faces Amagasa style. Anyone really believe he'd be less avoided than he is now? Of course not (see; Golovkin, Gennady)

His fights are boring because when people feel that left hand, they go into hiding. Now, I can't blame the likes of ****ens or Francisco, but Frampton and other champs should believe in their ability to bring it and force an exciting s****.

It's nothing to do with his style. He's just too good. He's a rare talent nearing the end of his career. Even if you don't enjoy his fights, nobody should accept his being totally ostracised.

 

Signing with arum is what destroyed his career. When your own promoter bad mouths his own fighter like arum did rigo. You're pretty much set up for failure.

Despite being "avoided" Golovkin has been busy, something Rigo should have done. There were guys willign to fight him even if they weren't the top dogs. Like wise Golovkin stayed busy bashing Murray, Rubio, Geale et al. Putting the other guys in a corner and seeing Canelo run from the division

 

Rigondeglass has a fragile mandible, which is why he doesn't fight often. Those shaky whiskers are a major impediment to his progressing.

 

What a stupid ****en answer from a pile of ****. ****en Burrito clogged degenerate.

 

Today's boxing fan is thee worst of them all. They are far and few these days and this **** thread and the answers provided by many of you is why the good posters rarely post here. You're **** riders to the 10th degree. Waste? Alter style, boring??? Rigo, really!!!??? ****en hilarious...

 

:deal
I'm incline to agree with you. We just watched the rise of GGG from avoided to "The Man" and top earner in the 160 division and the rise of Roman Gonzalez who is the single biggest star at Flyweight at the same time.
Both guys were unknowns to the public back in 2013 and are now headlining their own fights and featured on HBO because their managers "played the game" and marketed them right.

If Rigo had the right management and not that Communist management that he has he could be way bigger. His loyalty to these guys is insane.:nut

 

i own you, mongrel.

 

He's had a pretty solid career - could certainly have been better though. Lots of factors in that though, bit of a victim of his own success combined with poor management and promotion. He's probably about 15lbs too light to be a superstar too.
