    Rigoneaux is the best IMO.


    Too bad everyone is scared to fight him...

    Of course I know Lara compadre, but Lara wasn't even close to Gamboa's and Rigo's amateur accomplishments ... but I agree that he is also one of the best Cubans ...

    I have no idea they are two of my favourite boxers. Gamboa is more exciting (to most) whereas i really like defensive fighters.
    I'd have to go with Rigo in the end but i think Gamboa will become the bigger star as a pro

    Rigo is terribly overrated IMAO. Gamboa has fought a lot better competition and was ranked p4p a week ago. Rigo was outworked by Cordoba and is fighting sub par competition ever since

    Outworked by Cordoba? :rofl :lol: :lol:

    Rigo played with that guy from start to finish, knocked him down ( and let him continue, amateur mentality ) and stil beat Cordoba in every round in the end rounds. All Cordoba was doing was chasing Rigo around and receiving sharp and accurate punches to his face.

    Even the extremely biased Panamanian commentators that weren't giving Rigo any credit they all agreed that Cordoba needed to do more to win as he was losing the fight.

    The only people who say that Rigo had a tough time with Cordoba are the fans that score " the agressor " even though the agressor didn't land hardly anything ( similar to the Rios~Abril fight ).

    Rigo should have won UD and not SD, the only crap that Cordoba did was that mickey mouse knockdown... :yep

    Rigo froze in that fight and was doing ****. Bored me to death in the mean time. You are bona fide Cuban nuthugger so I think that you are a bit more biased than me.

    Chacal. . . His skill set, defense, and style of fighting will take him further than Gamboa.

    Especially with this latest stunt Gamboa pulled, which could realistically see him sidelined through 2014. . .

    People think Rigondeaux is "so old".

    He's only a year older than Gamboa, and doesn't get into as many wars.

    The clock is ticking for both. Both are wasting away. Especially now, for Gamboa, with the situation he's in.

    Guess who's (ultimately) the promoter for both?:yep
