Comments Thread For: Rigondeaux Climbs Off Canvas, Stops A****sa In A War

[Pain~Lucy]

evidently he has a weak chin, the japanese is not even a puncher but he's relentless and has a very big heart.

I also admit that this is an exciting rigo fight(his opponent fought back)

[Wuckoo]

How much did he get paid?

500k I believe

[gmc_rfc_06]

That was great.

All the credit in the world to A****sa, he got beat up pretty bad and his face is a complete mess but he kept trying and got himself a little success.

Great fight to end the year.

Great for Rigo, 32 million viewers? That's crazy

He messed that guys face up pretty bad...



The height difference was quite amusing, don't usually a gap like that at these weights. Generally speaking though, seems like Rigo beat him up over the 11 rounds.

Wow man.....it looks like he broke that guy's jaw. Sucks that we didn't get to see this one because it sounds like it would spark a great deal of interest in putting Rigo back on HBO.

[MDPopescu]

any fighter who gets knocked out or knocked down has a glass jaw according to boxingscene logic's, ****ing idiots.

Rigo got caught -- southpaws get caught by straight rights sometimes... But Rigo wasn't in big trouble though...

Rigo put up a real good show...

[bojangles1987]

Good fight, yet another Japanese unknown who made things tough. Don't ever count those fighters out, we should learn that by now.

She has a ***tape too.

In other news, I think it's funny how people are keen on dissing Rigo for having a "glass chin". The man looked like he was fighting a giant and not only did he get up from the KD, he dominated and stopped his opponent. Just like he got up and dominated Donaire. Maybe the guy is fighting bigger opposition and his skill allows him to overcome the size difference? Crazy, he could be one of the most talented boxers of all time and people act like he is some chump....smh.

He's boring doe... If more guys were willing to look like a****sa did at the end of the fight he probably wouldn't be so boring. War Rigo... Take your talents to shotime.

"But he better than floyd doe"



Someone needs to bump that "rigo is a better defender than floyd" thread

I had to argue with idiots claiming rigo is superior to money may in the defense department, even though may hasn't ever been knocked down, and every other journeymen fight, rigo gets dropped..


In terms of the fight, it sounds like a must watch
