Beating a guy of that caliber could improve Donaire's bragging rights. It would be an impressive victory if he beat him. Yet he won't even fight the guy. By the time Rigo gets more fights he'll be getting into his mid-30's. Is that what Donaire is waiting for? C'mon now...
We saw how easy Donaire is to hit, even by an old shot Nishioka. He must be absolutely petrified of Rigo's power.

Doanire would utterly outclass possibly obliterate Rigondeaux.
The Marroquin fight is proof of this.
People already complain about donaire being too big for the division despite just getting there and making weight with ease, do people not realize how much smaller rigo is to donaire?

There's really no hype or fan base for Rigo outside of hardcore fans, and he has had limited exposure and most certainly hasn't capitalized on what he has had. Don't get me wrong, it's a fight I want to see. But how do you expect a prizefighter to be motivated for a fight that would not generate much revenue? Nishioka at least has a huge following in Japan. Rigo doesn't have a following because, well, it's Cuba, and pro-boxing is outlawed there, so the only way is to defect to the US. You're not bringing any Cubans over. His best win is Ramos... Give him some time because, yes, he does have the skill-set to give him trouble, but he certainly hasn't earned it. He's not high profile enough.
