    yea i know all the promotional BS is standing in the way of this fight happening, but if it happens at 122, how do ppl see this go? a pure counterpuncher vs a nonstop pressure fighter, the bull vs the matador. It should be a pretty entertaining fight too given that if Santa cruz could make rigo work like how angulo made lara worked

    Not possible to effectively pressure Rigo in his current form in my opinion.

    Not unless you're willing to pull a Margarito in there and literally give it ever last fiber in your being. On top of being a great fighter to begin with.

    I would love to see it, but correct me if I am wrong on this: Rigo (Top Rank) Leo Santa Cruz (GBP)?

    Which means the fight will never take place. I'm sure we can expect a bunch of threads disparaging one of these fighters for "ducking" the other guy like we do with Pacquiao/Mayweather?

    This personal feud between promotional companies is really F'ing things up for boxing. Seriously.

    rigodeaux in a boring 12 round decision. all those punches santa cruz throws just means more openings for the great counter puncher. i would say ko but rigondeaux usually plays it safe

    Easy decision for Rigo.
