Guillermo Rigondeaux no quiere hacerse ilusiones, todavía, pero siente que ahora está más cerca que nunca de su enfrentamiento contra Nonito Donaire.

Luego de intensas negociaciones con Top Rank, el campeón cubano de las 122 libras ya tiene en sus manos el contrato que le pagará $750,000 por medirse al peligroso titular filipino el 13 de abril en una cartelera de la cadena HBO programada para la ciudad de Nueva York.

“Ahora sí me parece que la cosa va en serio’’, afirmó Rigondeaux (11-0, 8 KO). “No ha sido fácil y ha costado mucho, pero Top Rank quiere hacer este combate, que es el que también piden los aficionados y el que debe celebrarse entre dos campeones de la división. No dejo de respetar a Nonito y su boxeo, pero eso no quiere decir que no deje de pensar en partirle la cara ese día de abril’’.

Guillermo Rigondeaux wants no illusions, yet, but I feel that now is closer than ever to his showdown against Nonito Donaire.

After intense negotiations with Top Rank, the Cuban champion at 122 pounds and is holding the contract that will pay him $ 750,000 per measured the dangerous owner filipino April 13 on a billboard of HBO scheduled for NYC .

"Now I think the thing is serious,'' said Rigondeaux (11-0, 8 KO). "It was not easy and had a hard time, but Top Rank wants to make this fight, which is also asking fans and to be concluded between two division champions. I keep respect Nonito and his boxing, but that does not mean they do not stop thinking about the **** out that April day.''

Then people wonder why Rigo's been bangin' on that door so hard. lol

Makes you question, why? Why would a guy like Guillermo get offered so much cash? Evidently, Top Rank doesn't necessarily agree there's no interest in Rigo.

Good for him. Great fight. **** the critics. Two of the top 3 fighters in one of the hottest divisions in boxing right now. Can't wait for it.
