******Rigo v Donaire - Build-up Thread*****

Easy fight for RIGO except for knockdown.

 

Donaire has to throw everything at Rigo here.

 

Eye socket smashed?

 

I wouldn't be surprised, honestly. I think the fact it's been a poor fight will be blamed on Rigo and the judges will go against him. Lampley just said that the ringside journalists think it's a close fight, so I definitely think it'll be a tight decision.

Rigo should win but I doubt it'll be as wide as many of us think.

 

Rigo is a master!

Few punches but he's busted up Donaire's eye

 

what a brilliant performance!

 

RIGO WINS 12th big

RIGO WINS 10-2

117-110

 

That was a masterclass. 116-111

 

rigo won rd12 cant even be close on the cards

 

Gave all but the 10th round to Rigo.

Donaire came overconfident having not studied his opponent. I knew it.

 

RIGO boxed a masterpeice....how anyone can have Donaire winning is beyond me.

 

Donaire busted up in the last.

Gotta say thats one of the best tactical fights you're gonna see to take away all a top fighters strengths.

 

Yes!. Well done El Chacal.

Donaire's been to used to having all the advantages. Tonight he couldn't adapt to Rigondeaux and as mentioned earlier he got Donaire's respect early and made him wary.

Rigo's power is legit and his skills undoubted. Chin's fine IMHO. He's the damn goods!.

Don't rob the man, Don't rob him!.

 

For a 12 pro fight novice that was a pretty special performance from Rig

 

lederman gave Donaire 1 round the round he knocked Rigo down in
