    Rigo was staggered and holding on in the 5th, on his a$$ in the 7th-he was VERY lucky there wasn't 30 seconds or so left cause he would have been stopped, by a B level fighter LMAO!

    watching a chunk of the fight. 2 KDs near the end of the 7th..amagasa's face looks alright so far. Rigo punished him after the 7th? lol

    edit: looks like broken orbital in the 8th, jaw in the 10th

    Amagasa was done after the 10th, they should have stopped it, he had no pop in his punches, and was getting murdered by right hooks, 1-2's, and straight counters.

    Rigo just proved he can be exciting when he's in with a fighter who has heart.

    It sucks that he can only get fights in Asia, but if there's any type of fighter who will bring it to him and make a great fight it's gonna be an Asian fighter. Even unheard-of guys like that...gotta respect their heart. It's actually inspiring to watch.

    PS
    The first KD was 100% a balance thing. The second one he was hurt bad, though it was more of a pushdown than anything.

    Anyone else think Rigo looked tired in the second half of the fight?

    I thought he looked disinterested in parts. He had the same issue when he fought Marroquin. Didn't seem to stay focused the whole time. He did put his foot on the gas after the knockdown though. Amagasa was getting punished severely after that.

    Who cares if Rigo is vunerable

    He has a more than solid defence and is a little fcker. You get sloppy with him he'll punish you.

    Horrific injuries. Rigo has some nasty pop in his punches.

    Other than a shot Donaire he's faced C-Level fighters and bums.

    If he gets dropped by bums, an elite fighter will shatter his glass.

    Fact.

    Get your vision fixed.

    Rigo was (badly) hurt by the first kd.
    The second kd was due to the after effects of the first kd.

    Amagasa looked 2 divisions above Rigondaux, so no wonder he hurt him on the rare occasions he connected.

    And it's the worst Rigo has ever looked in the ring.

    Imagine what Lomo and Walters would do to Rigo.

    Embarrassed? He won all but one round and stopped his opponent practically deforming him in the process.
