Rigo says "Nobody wants to fight me everyone scared of me"

So what does he do ? Wins his next fight by breaking his next opponents jaw

Yeah that will do it rigo

Nobody seems to notice that Rigs kept his word and stood right in front of the Dickens the whole time. When Rigs moved forward, Dickens often retreated. Guys seem to completely freeze and stop throwing when they get in there with Rigo. He gets them shook.

What many people don't realize is that Rigo is a shit talker. He's a bit shy and socially awkward but what every Spanish-speaker says is true. It would be great if he spoke English. Rigo can talk trash. And he can back it up. The guy packs dynamite. Rigo obviously doesn't go out of his way to fight, but watch out if he opens up. The guy will bust you up.

The good news for him is 122 has a lot of young undefeated contenders like Rey Vargas and Moises Flores who need to make names for themselves and aren't being protected and micromanaged. Plus Quigg has an L and is probably more willing now.

If he can just stay active like GGG the bigger fights will come to him. With Chocolatito at 115 now that fight is becoming more realistic. They weigh the same on fight night already and it seems Roman is moving up every year. But time is running out on Rigo. He's old, just not too old...yet. That Chocolatito fight would have to happen soon

No one will beat him but father time or a really big weight mismatch, but it's looking likely that we will never see another big name ala Doniare again ..... shame...
After watching Rigos last two or three fights I got the feeling that as you say father time may have been catching up with him.

It was a shame that Jazza got his jaw broke, it would have been nice for the UK fans to see a few rounds of Rigo.
Tactics wise I think Jazza was doing well in the 1 and a half rounds that he was in the fight for, he was doing everything he possible could, as I say if it wasnt for that one punch the fight would have lasted a said while longer because Jazza wasn't committing too much.

Jazza was never going to win but I think it was a shame for the kid to go out so soon, 9 times out of 10 that would have just been a great punch, this time it was a fucking superb shot.

I hope Rigo does come back in September, any ideas who would be in line to fight him from the UK?
