[turnedup]

Caribe Promotions, a boxing promoter that claims a relationship with world 122-pound champion Guillermo Rigondeaux, filed a lawsuit against Roc Nation Sports in New York Supreme Court today (Tuesday). The lawsuit relates to Rigondeaux's challenge of WBO 130-pound champion Vasyl Lomachenko in Madison Square Garden this weekend. Roc Nation is Rigondeaux's primary promoter, and it entered into an agreement with Lomachenko's promoter, Top Rank, to make this weekend's fight. Caribe alleges that Roc Nation has frozen it out of participating in the big fight. Top Rank was not named as a defendant in the lawsuit.

But Bob...But the world is against Rigo...but he's the greatest gift to boxing EVERRRRR...but Bob...

I'll say this one last time to the Rigo fans. You want to blame anyone for how his career panned out then take a look at Caribe and him. They are responsible for what's become of him.

I think Arum used mind control to make Caribe **** Rigo.

Yes, the same Arum who signed him and gave him a platform and tried to showcase him in addition to giving him two paydays of $750k and above and his 3 highest career paydays. That evil guy..

aahhh so it makes sense now how this fight was made no problem

Steve Kim and Dan Rafael rollling strong with the tabloids similar to close Mayweather bouts to spook and distract Roc Nation.

I miss Steve Kim’s burning of Roc Nation with Ali holding to pole in a tweet.

They all shook Rigo bout show the world!!’

Arum and legal affiliates tipping Caribe Promotions for some immediate court order! Lol

Probably Rigo having last minute doubts and trying to get it postponed but doesn't seem like it will work.

Should've probably read the whole story before you started with this.

Caribe apparently owes RocNation something like $150,000 in expenses from prior Rigo fights, yet want to show up with their hand out when a money bag shows up. lol
