Did some of the lustre come off Rigo?

I think he just got bored and got caught. Rigo is a great talent, he may be a bit over rated to be so highly regarded with only 15 fights, only time will tell.

It has to be said too that he was fighting a guy 7 inches taller than himself... that's pretty rare and no doubt provided some unique challenges.

Rigo looked like he was out to do serious damage over time from the get go here, sat on his punches more than usual I thought.He wont be as fast as usual doing that but hits with exceptional timing on the move, so more percussion to him.
Wonder why a guy with height and reach like Hiashi mirrored some of those low flexible bending moves Rigo was pulling out?He seemed inexperienced to handle some things in that fight but wow big set of balls being that outclassed and cant blame him for not coming out.
Im not buying into rigo being hurt by that knock down,shaken but not stirred maybe,he was caught square footed and knocked off balance.(that may make others think they can finish him may help future fights if they buy it.
One day I hope we see a fight over the Jackal name, as well as some belts.
Few more long nights for Frampton would help, I think he would run into Rigos traps at the moment and wouldnt have tasted this sort of power on tap. But then theres always the fact Frampton can hit hard going backwards and Rigo's slightly looser jaw , so it won't be just two trains on a head on path.
Im thinking way ahead, but I really hope these two meet up.
