    rigo's footwork is better than broners, but broner has a better jab than rigo and does the shoulder roll better.

    We haven't seen RIGO look as bad as Broner did in the Ponce fight though, so maybe based off that it would be Rigo.

    Rigondeaux. Don't think it's close really.

    I say they got a pretty equal amount of skill. They both have above 300 amateur fights.

    :lol: I guarantee that most of the guys that said Rigo are saying it based on the trend in this thread. I would definitely put Rigondeaux above, but people who say Broner is all athleticism.. that's not true. He's got his wins with skill. The jury is out till we both see how they progress.

    Edge to Broner.

    No slight to "El Chacal" who is exceptionally skilled. He just doesn't utilize his right hand all too much, whereas Broner is dangerous with both hands.

    Rigo, big time.

    If Broner was such a great athlete by the way, he should have been able to out-athlete slow plodding Ponce De Leon. Berto is even better ahtletically.

    No. Rigo had over 400 and won two Olympic gold medals. Broner had 300 and didn't win ****.
