Does a win over Walters and Gonzalez make Rigondeux the No.1 fighter on the planet or would he come 2nd or 3rd to Mayweather,Pac ect?

If he moves up next year and dominates the division how would you rank him then?

Update:

boxing

    Rigo was an excellent amateur, his move to the pro ranks was a little on the late side..

    Already in his mid-thirties,the clock must surely be running down at this stage.

    Rigo is one of the most avoided champions out there, his style is difficult, there are not too many who want to risk it all against a slippery customer like him.

    Rigo will not challenge Mayweather or Pac in terms of fans and revenue. It's a pity, if he had an exciting style, he would be a PPV smash hit.

    As much as I'd rather this wasn't the case, I think Mayweather is number 1 until he is defeated. I said to myself yesterday that if Walters fought Gonzalez, the winner would go into my top 10. If Rigondeaux beat them both in style, I'd move him up to 3rd

    He would be the best Cuban pro fighter of all time and arguably the best fighter on the planet if he beats both Nicholas Walter and Jhonny Gonzales. He does not even have to fight and beat that overrated Vasyl Lomachenko to affirm that.

    #3 behind Mayweather and Pacquiao. Once Rigo beat few champions, then it's time to put at #1 or #2

    #3 is most likely. I would like to see him fight either of the two you mentioned but there will be a big problem. What network is willing to give Rigon a chance and who's promoter is willing to pay him since he was demanding an enormous amount in the vicinity of a million.

    Rigo, the unexposed cuban short distanced amatuer cannot beat Walters. I'm sure Rigo will duck Walters. His cuban partners Gamboa and Lara have already been exposed.
