Guillermo Rigondeaux has defected, turrning pro

[Violent Demise]

If he is anything like he was in the amateurs he will destroy either of them. Think Roy Jones athletically, but fights like a Pernell Whitaker with movement.

Good the see people ain't going overboard.

Have you even watched him? Abner Mares, one of the most cockstroked fighters on this board was completely owned by him.

Lost once in his last 6 years at the world level as an amateur.

His athletic ability and evasiveness is it obvious to anybody who has watched him.

People knew Mayweather and Jones would be great because of their amateur careers, he is on their level. Only a Amir Khan chin will make him anything but a p4p contender, unless his body falls apart.

Yeah well people thought Mark Breland and Kelcie Banks would be great as well. Didn't quite turn out that way. Amatuer and pro's are vastly different than before. Like i said before, Rigondeaux is an outstanding talent. He'll will do well. But if you put him in there early against Rafael Marquez he will get knocked out. Rigondeaux is at an advance age. But he's never faced any one who hits as hard as Marquez.
