    I disagree and one thing people forget about rigo is he had power and hurt and knocked people out he could crack. He also has a style and skills inoue has never seen.

    Rigo's insanely overrated. Always has been. He fought absolute bums and got dropped or lit up by many of them. In his prime, he was almost stopped by some Japanese unknown.

    Rigo just happened to put on the performance of his life against a fat Nonito who was running days before the fight to make weight. That's it. He's got ONE good win. A prime Rigo was terrified of a faded Agbeko and wouldn't throw ANY punches. People started leaving after the fourth round. It was one of the worst fights ever. I know because I went to that fight.

    And last time out, he was outboxed, beaten up, and dropped by a complete nobody.

    Rigo throws less than 50 punches in a fight with Inoue with 45 of them being jabs.

    Inoue by KO as soon as he lands flush.

    Rigo is old and shot his last couple of fights don't reflect his greatness. In fact hes also probably much older than his listed age and left his prime in Cuba. Rigo gave people work and was ducked by many wtf are you talking about? The fact is his win over donaire is better than anything inoue has done. Inoue has never seen anyone like rigo with his footwork power and ability to catch inoue with shots he doesn't see he would give him fits.

    In his prime he was dropped by bum ass Roberto Marraquin and dropped and almost stopped by bum ass Hisashi Amagasa. In his prime, he was terrified and afraid to throw against bum ass Joseph Agbeko. Also dropped by bum ass Cordoba.

    The Donaire win was excellent, but Donaire fell in love with own hype and didn't train properly. That's why he was running everyday during fight week to make weight.

    Donaire was older, but Inoue beat Donaire at his best weight where he was undefeated and Inoue outboxed him the first time and BRUTALLY DESTROYED him in the rematch when he didn't have a broken eye.

    You know I'm right. Rigo is GROSSLY OVERRATED on the strength of one great win and his Olympic background. The brutal reality is that he was mediocre as a pro.

    Bums dropped and/or hurt Rigo. Inoue takes him out easy.

    Inoue created more excitement in any one of his fights than Floyd "pitty-pat and run" Mayweather did in his whole career.

    I've always fallen asleep trying to watch Floyd's fights, I'm always awake and alert watching Inoue's!

    Floyd had ONE stoppage win in his last 10 pro fights, and even that was from a sucker punch.

    Floyd was fighting at 147-154 in his last 10 fights and started at 130. %wise 154 is like Inoue fighting at 126, which will also be Inoue's 5th division. We'll have to see whether or not Inoue can KO guys that much larger than himself.

    Excitement is subjective skills drawing power and accomplishments are not.:deal: I don't give a **** if inoue is "more exciting " he's not better than pbf nor will he ever be not with that trash resume and overall ability he's light years behind pbf.

    No.

    Floyd went to 147 because he couldn't make 135 (and was afraid of Tszyu at 140, so he fought Mitchell at 147). Let's not forget, he failed to make the 145 catchweight to fight the smaller 135 champion Juan Manuel Marquez.

    Floyd was a weight bully at 130 and 135, he was always a natural welterweight, much like Haney and Crawford are today. He often fought blown up bantamweights and featherweights (Jesus Chavez, Guerrero, JMM) and made Hatton move up from 140 to 147 for their fight.

    Inoue has ALREADY moved up from light flyweight and super flyweight, and at both those weight divisions he was world champion. Unlike Floyd "Pitty-pat and Run" Mayweather, Inoue has been exciting in ALL his fights in all his weight divisions.

    • 24-0-0 (21 KO)
    • 17-0 (15 KO) in major World Title Fights
    • 88% KO ratio
    • 6 rounds lost in 138 rounds boxed since going pro 10 years ago for a 96% win percentage
    • KO'd the #1 ranked guy in 3 weight divisions
    • KO'd the #1, #2, #3, and #4 ranked guys to become undisputed
    • Zero close fights, zero controversial decisions
    These are Looney Tunes stats that don't even seem like they're real. It's literally impossible to overrate Inoue because he's factually/statistically the most dominant fighter in boxing over the last decade. Actually, the only way you can overrate Inoue is by calling him the GOAT, which I never did.

    :facepalm:

    You sound stupid. Floyd's defensively better than Inoue's because that's his specialty and bread and butter. Offensively, Inoue is far better than Floyd. Inoue's never been outboxed or outslugged in a single round.

    One judged inexplicably gave Moloney a round over Inoue. The other 3 rounds he lost was to Nonito because he got hit with haymakers, but he has never been lit up or outgunned. And then 2 rounds he "lost" because maybe the other guy was a little more busy? LOL!

    Numbers don't lie. Floyd has never been more dominant than Inoue during any stretch and Inoue wouldn't lose a single round to Castillo, Maidana, Guerrero, Cotto, or MacGregor.

    Lmfao you sound stupid the level of opposition the quality of boxers pbf faced vs what inoue has faced is as vast as the milky way galaxy. There are no prime great fighters at his weight. The guys best win is an ancient donaire. Anybody can look like the second coming against a bunch of d c and b level fighters aint no p4p talents at those weights. The talent level down there is too thin. Pbf wouldn't lose a round to the bums inoue has faced any of those guys you named with the exception of connor would be Inoue's best win that's how thin and **** his resume is.
