Moreno would fight him in a heartbeat. Mares isn't worried about Rigo, as he has bigger fish to fry. Donaire said he won't fight him. Tell your boy to fight Moreno and get that ass whuppin.
wrong dude. when u put two highly skilled and athletic boxers in the ring, It usually makes for an entertaining little chess match. see ward vs dawson and floyd vs judah. that being said, i think Rigo wuld tear moreno apart in a sort of competitive fight. hes too procise. moreno is elusive, but rigo is a straight sharp shooter with cat like reflexes. also hard to hit as well. moreno likes to go with the flow, Rigo is crafty with a full arsenal. Rigo mid rounds TKO via body assault.
How? How's he going to outbox a guy just as slick as he is that has a 4 inch reach advantage and a 2 inch height advantage? Moreno also has a full arsenal. Rigo has a left hand. The only advantage Rigo has is power, but Moreno has a great chin. The same can't be said for Rigo who's been knocked down by a jab. So how exactly does he get past this horrible stylistic matchup?
Rigo does NOT have a full arsenal. He has a left hand. Moreno has a FULL arsenal. Where is Rigo's right hook? Moreno also has a chin, and a signficant height and reach advantage as well as being slick. This is a nightmare matchup for Rigo who's not tearing anyone up in this match. In fact, Moreno's defense is even better at guys that don't have right hooks in their arsenal. All Moreno has to look out for is the left straight. And if Rigo gets aggressive to compensate for Moreno's reach and slick skills, he might just find himself getting slapped to the ground by a jab.
Would be a very competitive fight. Moreno have some serious physical advantages in height and reach. Also very good defensive elusive style with a good offense. Rigo can be said for the same thing except he is extremely short for the weight class and is almost a pure counter puncher. If Moreno gets on his bike it would be a tough fight for Rigo. Rigo got the power to put a hurting on Moreno. Toss up match for me.
