return of the most technically gifted

fighter in the world tonight

guillermo rigonduex, after almost shutting out the ring fighter of the year last time out he faces what should be a pretty straight forward defnce against tough ghanain joeseph agbeko, fully expect a wide ud boxing masterclass again

hopefully he moves up weight after this so donaire doesnt feel too comfortable at his new weight

Problem with him is that he doesn't have a fan friendly style. But a superb technician. Arum hates him.

I think a lot of people are overrating Rigo of the Donaire fight.

Nonito was not at his best that night, underestimated Rigo and just went for the big punch.

Donaire proved that he not the fighter he once was with his rematch with Darchinyan, who showed how reliant he is on his left hand.

Agbeko should push Rigo hard tonight, though he is moving up in weight and has not been the same since Mares punched his nuts off in their first bout.

I think Rigo should take a close decision but would not be surprised if Agbeko gets robbed on the cards.

D4 you sound like donaire. Rigo took his heart like Barrera did with hamed. He thought he was invincible

Rigo done no such, thing.

Donaire did not look the same that night as he did when he face Siderenko, a fight when he was at the top of his game.

He has slowly been on the slide, but he phenomenal power in his left hand has been keeping him winning.

He became too reliant on that added to the fact he was killing himself to make weight and him slightly overlooking Rigo made him ripe for the takings.

Rigo is being overrated by many, Agbeko pushes him hard and he is a blown up past it batamweight

Nonny didn't look the same because rigo didn't allow him to do what he wanted.

I notice a definite slide in his performance in the previous year and in with the rematch with Darch.

Rigo did not influence them either.

He was far more elusive a few years back, boxed more and had more variety and moved better.

I got 20/1 on Agbeko on pts, couldn't past that up stuck a few quid down on it
