What he is, is a really good fighter who is a legit threat to Donaire. He doesn't have many fights as a pro. But that doesn't matter. He's already the fighter he's gonna be. He's not still learning. His amateur career was a long one because he's Cuban. If not he would of turned pro a long time ago.
That's actually a pretty good fucking comparison. It's true. Rigondeaux is not the same as other 11-0 fighters. He's pretty much a vet in the sport of boxing
