Just Wanted to TOUCH BASE w/Those that Have Been LESS than Enthralled w/THE WAY Guillermo Rigondeaux Fights, Often Labeling Him "Boring"... Brother Nobleart Even Went Soooooo Faaaaaaaaaar as to Proclaim him "RigonDULL"::... Be That as it May, Allow Erislandy Lara, in THE Biggest Fight of his Boxing Life, To Be a SHINING Example of Just How SPECIAL Guillermo Rigondeaux REALLY Is... Admittedly, Rigondeaux Can Be PATIENT to a Fault & Often Falls Into LULLS, After Mounting Sizable Leads... But he's Never EVER as Flat Out NEGATIVE as Lara Fought, Last Night...When Rigondeaux Bouts Become "Boring", it's Typically Because he's TAMED his Opponent 1st...Brought the "Bitch" Out of Him...ALREADY Administered Enough HURT to Coerce his Foe Into SURVIVAL Mode... Polar Opposite of When Lara Fights Become Boring.... Nonetheless, Erislandy Lara is a TALENTED, Counterpunching Southpaw, w/a Manner of Fighting CLEARLY Patterned After That of Guillermo Rigondeaux...Only Rigondeaux's More OFFENSIVE Minded, is a Bigger BANGER (Lb for Lb), is Considerably More FLAT FOOTED, SHINED in the Biggest Fight of his Career & Does All of this w/a Size DISadvantage Lara Rarely Encounters... Lara is Adrien Broner, Rigondeaux is Floyd...Lara is (Early Doors) Andre Ward/Andre Dirrell, Rigondeaux is Roy... REED Gets Why Rigondeaux's NOT Everybody's Cup of Tea, but Given Last Nights Events, SURELY there's More of an APPRECIATION for Him Now???... REED:dunno:
P4P, Crapnelo wouldn't win 1 sec of any round vs Rigo. After getting lit up for awhile, Ginger would just go into survival mode.
Rigo is the kind of boxer I love to read the results of his fights and watch only the highlights of the bouts on youtube, but that I don't want to ever watch a live fight. ZZZZZZZZZ
May as well use this topic for final predictions. Who you guys got: The Jackal or Sod Looknongyantoy? Tough call
That fucking name :: Some Thai names are amongst the world's funniest, such as Sod Look Nong Ya Toy, and that Turdsack guy that Marquez fought.
For the GREATER GOOD of Boxing Journalism, Terdsak SHOULD have Been a Dominant, Loooooooong Reigning Champion, Damnit!!!!...Oh the Possibilities!!!!... According to Boxrec, Rigondeaux's Upcoming Opponent Also Goes by Kokietgym... Lost 2wice to Ponce De Leon (1nce by Decision, the Other by 1st Round KO), Several YEARS Ago...Is OLDER than Rigondeaux (Who will be 34 in September, Himself) & Has ZERO Punching Power to Speak Of... Rigondeaux Should be OFFENDED by his Bout Being Relegated to Spanish Television & Make a STATEMENT Here...But If he Beats the Shit Out Terdsak Jr. EARLY, Only to COAST Late & ALLOW the Fight to Go the Distance (as he's Been KNOWN to Do), he'll have Nobody But HIMSELF to Blame & Will Likely Find his NEXT Fight Televised by a Jr. Varsity Network, as Well... REED:hammert:
Rigondeaux has legit power. He could KO everybody, but he is content with looking at his opponents for 12 rounds. He has talent but can't draw flies. This is a business after all.
Prime Jones was FAAAAAARRRRRRRRR more exciting than Rigo, and you all know it. Jones at 160-168 was far more offensive minded than boring ass Rigo will ever be. Don't make Rigo into something he's not. He's an elite technician, but he's not exciting. Whitaker was more fun to watch than Rigo. Pea didn't even have Rigo's power, but he was more offensive minded.
whitaker turned pro as a kid. if rigondeaux turned pro after his first gold medal as a 19-20 year old its a different ball game. he wouldve KOd pacquiao and changed history. a young whitaker wasnt more exciting aside from the rojer mayweather fight
He knocked him out with a something close to a sucker punch. They had a clash of head that had Sod visibly hurt. The ref mad them touch gloves and almost as they were touching gloves Rigondeaux punched him with a left hand and knocked him out. I think Rigondeaux only wanted to make a statement to Nobleart.
Either way, it's pretty cheap. But that's The Rigondeaux - he does what he wants. Pure runnin amuck no gie'n a fuck
You motherfuckers. Now Lara is enhancing the legacy of Rigondeuce? :shit #2: Eat a bag of dicks, guys! In case you hadn't noticed, I hate Eris-lazy Lara just as much as RigondZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ, and went on a lengthy rant on Cuban boxers in general, that I don't feel like looking up right now. <iframe src="//www.youtube.com/embed/Rj4IUoC2kRs" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" width="560"></iframe>
Rigandolf rulez Noble, and you can't deny he is becoming more exciting. Blasted the guy in 1 round, can't ask for more than that.
Just cause Rigon-dilz blasted some bum who was already laid out by a headbutt, seconds earlier? Fuck that guy! Such a magical fucking wizard he is. :wack:
agREED, Rigo cows his opponents into fighting cautiously. He has a strong argument for being P4P #1 right now.
Oh sure, and the guy throwing 9 punches a round, hailed as the grand wizard of the Caribbean boxing scene, isn't also fighting cautious. Apparently this little sorcerer also has the power of mass hypnosis. He enters into your subconscious when he looks into the camera between rounds, convincing boxing aficionados everywhere, that the one combo he lands every 3 rounds is greater then all the combos of all the greatest boxers in the history of the game, put together. Nobody has ever been as scared of another opponent, as Rigondulls opponents have been a'scared of him. Even now, he knocks out some concussed stiff in the first round. OMG! Look at that! Did you see him systematically take apart that succulent dish of Pad Thai? Amazing! Why don't we just anoint him PFP GOAT! right now? Are his psychic powers so strong? We shall see boxing fans, we shall see.
Seriously, I think I'd rather watch Andre Ward and Winky Wright snapchat each others dirty dilz's on ABC's Wide World Of Sports, then watch "The Cuban Defect-or" cautiously overwhelm another malnourished Asian.
SHIT Fight, but it Damn Sure WASN'T Rigondeaux's Fault... Karategym, or Whatever his Name was, JUMPED INTO Rigondeaux, CAUSING the Headbutt...CLEARLY an Accidental Headbutt that the INITIATOR Got the Worst Of... From There, the Ref Gives Karategym the Time he Needs to Recover, Motions to the Fighters to "Fight", SAYS "Fight", Rigondeaux TOUCHES Gloves w/Karategym, then Drops a Southpaw 1-2 on his Ass... Speaking of Which, When's the Last Time SOUTHPAWS Clashed Heads???... REED:fightme:
