    exactly and not stupid at all.

    i picked Donaire to win and didnt really care much for Rigondeax's talent but now im looking forward to watching every fight of his from now on.

    Yeah cool story, well it would be if there wasn't a ton of people picking Rigo by UD and as the fight got closer even more people began to pick Rigo by UD.

    Yeah saying that is dumb, ive been watching Donaire and Rigo for years, I always watch Donaire and knows he's elite so saying hes a hype job is stupid, i always know he would look average against Rigo

    Nah not just you man there's some Rigo fans here, I've been watching Rigondeaux for years always been a fan from the moment i watched him, but there is alot of bandwagoners here though

    So Rigo put on a masterful performance and made a bunch of new fans (including myself) and you're bitching about it?

    He just beat a top 10 p4p fighter. Isn't it obvious that his fan base woukd grow?

    Underdog beats top 5 p4p and FOTY. Wins over many new fans. Shocker.

    Surely it'd be a bad thing if he didn't win over fans after a win like that? I'm not sure i even follow what point you're making?

    i've been a fan since he fought my countryman willie casey in 2011 and have followed his career since. I always picked him to beat donaire but never thought it would be as easy as he made it. But yes boxing is FICKLE

    There is a difference between giving rigo props and acting like you're a huge rigo fan now and always knew he would beat donaire. I have been following rigo since his debut, I support all the cuban defectors that live here in miami and i still thought the fight would be 50/50

    Plenty of people were pulling for him beforehand. The only legit concern against a fighter of Donaire's caliber was his chin.

    If Rigo loses, or even struggles, in his next fight, they will all be calling him a bum.
