Relax. Rigondeaux is not some monster puncher. He'll win. But I'm sure it'll be on points

never said he's a monster puncher, but he's accurate as fuck and Vic has always been easy to hit, even more so now, and his punch resistance isn't what it used to be, so I could see him being stopped late by accumulation of punches

I agree. You only have to look at the straight left Rigo landed that fucked Nonito's eye in the 12th. He looked badly hurt and Nonito avoids shots much better than Vic.

Total shutout , poor old Vic wont win a round.

To be honest, not excited too much to hear about this matchup.


That being said, Vic is fun to watch.

Vic has such an awkward crab like style and its weird, I always lost money betting against him and I've won betting on Rigo...oh boy. I think I'll just watch this one.

I'd suggest you not be terribly superstitious there, except that I can't imagine Rigo would be worth putting any money on when the odds come out. I remember reading that Darchinyan signed a new contract recently and being surprised, now I'm not so much Don't think he's with Top rank like Rigo but either way, this must've just been a really easy fight to make for old Bob Arum.
