    He showed no inside skills, ability to fight off the backfoot, or ability to dig down deep and come back from adversity. A true ATG would've done all that in his very first fight. Disregard the fact that a punching bag would've likely been a more suitable opponent for Rigondeaux to prove himself against.

    No, I just had Rigondeaux on my mind from FNF and had a brain fart in a thread talking about Cuban fighters and debuts. It happens when you get older :/

    Well, an ATG would most likely have thrown at least one combination or stunned a no-talent no-hoper at least once in his pro debut.

    Then how on Earth could you have known I compared Rigondeaux and Ali? You did say that, didn't you?

    What?

    The only owned who's been owned all over the board is you. I called you on how highly you rate JCC and you ran from your own topic and never returned.

    Why don't you go ahead and name your top 5 P4P of all-time so everybody can have a good laugh.

    Oh I see. You're talking about THIS thread. Well, I never said I was a homosexual, but aren't you clever for pretending that I did.

    Yeah he did what he could do and that was get a few rounds in against a rubbish fighter and dominate the fight.

    Hearns, SRL, Whitaker and JCC in a top 7. LOL.

    And that's coming from a big fan of Sweet Pea, and a moderate fan of both Hearns & Leonard.
