Have been big on Agbeko for awhile but dude will come in with rust, just can't avoid it. Why hbo excepts him after given Rigo so much crap but doesn't see fit to at least 'build' by putting him on some undercard makes no sense. Hes a better boxer than given credit for and he was royally screwed and literally neutered in Mares 1 but he'll be forced to go face first here as well as rise in weight. Good match, hope for a quality fight.
i always thought that agbeko was underrated. he has all the tools. he can box well, he can brawl, he is durable. he isnt a top 10 p4p guy but a few years back i would have said definitely top 20. i think that he would have probably beaten donaire at that time too.
The first Mares Agbeko fight was so wrong. I never felt so indignant watching a fight. I think this will be a great fight for Rigo, and if he wins he'll need to spank Mares.
