I think Rigo is too smart for Donaire.

But I also thought Moreno would be able to beat Mares so who knows.

How old was Rigo? Did he made the Big time money yet! How many fights did he had now? Not too smart for me! If he's smart he should be fighting more & built his legacy.

Your opinion wouldn't have anything to do with Donaire being a Pinoy, would it?

243 reported Amateur fights recorded enough for you? Some say his actual number of fights is nearly 400.

Legacy? How about 2 consecutive gold medals in the Olympics, and being considered by many as one of the best amateurs of all time?

Money? If money dictated who the better fighter is then the issue of Mayweather vs Pacquiao should have been settled ages ago.

????

Then why is Bob Arum avoiding him like the plague?

If your looking at age then you may have point, Rigo isnt exactly a young buck but isnt washed up like Arce and Montiel either, theyre going to continue to avoid Rigo in hopes of him getting older while Donaire continues to improve

So what its the Problem? He's already next on the line to be executed by Donaire! BUt why he cant fight 4 or 3 times a year so he build his fan base? He's lucky Donaire ran out of worthy opponent in his weight class! Now he's next! He better be there by fight night!

People keep bringing up the Marroquin fight. You guys do remember that Rigo dropped him twice, including a near-finish in the last round, and basically made him look like an amateur for ten of twelve rounds?

Guillermo had his hands down half the time; he underestimated Robert and still wound up spanking him.

He's not underestimating Donaire.
