    He's watchable. Not the most exciting but there's far worse his countryman RICHAR ABRIL takes the cake and eats it. LARA is boring as

    bat **** too. Must be the Cuban style or something.

    I am not sure how Nonito's face got the way it got if Rigondeaux was running all night... unless he was so bored he fell asleep and that's when Rigo beat the crap out of him.

    The sure way for Rigo to become "fan friendly" is to use less defence, throw more rabbit punches, clinch more, stand toe to toe and just flail away leaving everything to chance and let skill be damned. Do all this while taking fights where there are a bunch of European alcoholic idiots who know nothing about boxing.

    He'll become "fan friendly" but he won't have too long a career and he'll have zero chance at ever reaching the ATG status. He'll be like your average ordinary Russian fighter, I.E. Kovalev, Lebedec, GGG, Bute.

    When Rigon leaves Top Rank and settles into a better home like GBP, I have no doubt that his star will soar much higher then it's present height.
    Same goes for Andre Ward. Once he is through with Goosen, he will break out and become a mega-star.

    What about Bradley, Morales, Barrera, Cotto?

    All A class, although Bradley is marginal. I say this because Bradley has a big heart, but not to skilled in defence taking a lot of punches. His lack of defensive skills are beginning to show the effects of taking many punches to the face. Sort of reminds me of a less talented Holyfield.
    Morales, Barrera and especially Cotto are all well rounded Tier 1 fighters.

    I said the Group 2 fighters hadn't beaten Tier 1 class fighters.
    Pac is definitely the exception in the list.

    Only reason I included him in Group 2 is because his style appeals to Group 2 fans. However, Pac is clearly A level whereas the other on the Group 2 list, are no more than B grade at this point in time.

    Fair enough, I think Vitali and Wlad are both A-level fighters. Although, whether they are ATGs are not, that's debatable.

    To be honest, it's all relative and based on personal expectations centered around one's understanding of the sport and techniques used by the fighter.
    Also, factoring in the level of the competition the fighter has faced and defeated.
    The individual expectation will of course be defined by the level of knowledge of he viewer.

    As example, a novice may be of the opinion that Albert Einstein was the smartest man who ever lived, while Einstein himself may have been of the opinion that it was Paul Robeson. See? :yep

    Fixed it for you.
    FYI, Nazis were merely Zionist puppets, and Ukraine is simply yet another Z ionist state, didn't you know.
    So, if Vitali isn't a Nazi, then he definitely is a puppet.
    You are dumb. Of course you didn't know. :rofl
