Is Guillermo Rigondeaux Too Good For His Own Good

[ruthless rocco]

Guillermo Rigondeaux is arguably second to FM in the P4P lists

It's amazing to say that about a guy who has only fought as a pro 13 times

No-one wants to fight himm not Frampton, Quigg, Martinez or Cruz.

I think everyone should be thankful he's 33, not 23 years old,

There have been plenty of people with great skills and abilities who did not make it very far
Say, George Benton
Even Pernell WHitaker (ironically taught by George Benton early in his career) struggled to get worthy opponents late in his career

I have a feeling, Guillermo Rigondeaux, does not believe in Jesus, but he relies on his natural abilities only.
This explains his failures. It is not about how good you are, it is about how good is our offering to God.

Floyd, in turn, believes in God and admittedly is praying all the time. Even though his boxing is VERY boring (but efficient), he not just wins, but gets best paycheck.

In this life, it is all about finding the first principle.

God's fault for sure!!!

Rigo is a fantastic pure boxer who clowned the network glory boy in Donaire. That was huge! But it doesn't make him a victim. If you're great, you are not claiming the victim card early on. I think he finger paints when he might be able to do more and you have to earn that pass

his problem is that he is boring and at a low weight. if he were a welterweight, he would be fine. its just that most people dont care about fighters his size especially if they are boring.

rigo is good but i think that he got overrated quickly after his donaire win. yes, he has an extensive amateur background, but he has really only looked really good in his last few fights. he has struggled with previous opponents. i would in no way put him at #2 p4p. i could say he is in the top 10 but has done absolutely nothing to make him in the top 2. not even in the top 5 IMO.
