It was clear that Noriega didn't really want to be there. I agree that Rigondeaux necessitates a higher caliber opponent, for exactly the reasons you stated.

For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.

What stood out to me the most was the fact that Rigondeaux landed flush a bunch of times but wasn't able to really hurt his opponent. He wobbled him yes. But the way he landed flush, he should of stopped him. His power looks to be on the decent side
Juan Noriega clearly isn't a good fighter, but how do you know what his chin is like? Also I only saw Rigondeaux land one really flush left cross with Juan coming in, at the end of the first round. Besides he only landed his right hook cleanly, and everytime he did that Juan was stumpling backwards, and Rigondeaux's hook is nowhere near as powerful as his left cross.
As for Spicoli, Rigondeaux deserves all the praise he gets, he is the most impressive fighter to go pro since ROy JOnes Jr, I honestly believe that. I wish he was younger, but his skill is undeniable, and a year or two down the road from now, baring Amir Khan's chin, I will be saying I told you so to everyone who is overlooking him.
