McDonnell has a 6 inch height advantage and massive reach advantage over Rigo.
I'm not a McDonnell fan but i'd say outside of Donaire, he would be by far the best guy Rigo has fought. Plus with that size difference, it could actually be interesting. McDonnell is no bum and Rigo would need to be on form to get around those physical advantages. Plus we have seen Rigo get dropped and not look spectacular against much taller guys like the Japanese fella A****sa. He did get the job done in the end but McDonnell is better than A****sa in my opinion, similar height but slightly longer reach, great stamina and has also shown a bit of power lately. Add that with the fact Rigo is inactive and not getting any younger...
I'd still favour Rigo of course, but it might not be a walk in the park for him.
