Arum: Donaire vs. Rigondeaux in 2011; Rigondeaux signs with Top Rank!!! Nonito Donaire doesn’t mind playing a cameo role as long as Manny Pacquiao is the lead character of the show. “I have requested that I be included in Manny’s undercard,” Donaire, the interim World Boxing Association (WBA) super-flyweight titlist told the PSA Forum on Tuesday. Pacquiao is booked to fight on November 13 against Antonio Margarito and Donaire wants no less than a cameo appearance underneath in an effort to get maximum exposure since the fight of Pacquiao has always been a blockbuster. Donaire mentioned Fernando Montiel of Mexico as his main target but it would be all up to Top Rank chief Bob Arum, who promotes both fighters. Fresh from stopping Hernan ‘Tyson’ Marquez of Mexico in San Juan, Puerto Rico, Donaire is dying to get it on with Montiel, who holds the WBA and World Boxing Organization bantam belts. Accompanied by wife Rachel, Donaire admits to feeling bothered that he has yet to engage in a super showdown even though he’s been fighting under Arum’s banner the past two years. “It’s frustrating but if the Montiel fight doesn’t happen, there are other big fights out there,” said Donaire. ‘But I would really love my next fight to be in the undercard of a Pacquiao fight.” In a conversation with The Bulletin just before Donaire faced the media, Arum assured the California-based puncher that Top Rank has grand plans for him although it doesn’t look like Arum is keen in having him underneath the Pacquiao headliner. “Tell him, we’re trying to finalize the details of his fight with Montiel and that we have plans of seeing him fight (Guillermo) Rigondeaux at 122 lbs next year,” said Arum, revealing that his company has just signed up the talented Cuban. Arum, however, wants the Donaire-Montiel duel to take place on December 4, underneath the proposed world super-welterweight battle between Miguel Cotto of Puerto Rico and Julio Cesar Chavez, p

Solis is done???? Wtf? Any on the thrad I havent seen Acosta, Perez, Yunier, Hernandez or Garcia. But I have seen Lara, Gamboa, Rigondeaux and a guy you didnt name Despainge. Theres another one named Yudel Johnson or something like that but I think hes awful. Going by who I seen Rigondeaux is the stud of the cubans He reminds me of a southpaw Mayweather. He fights ith extreme patience and timing. Very accurate, very fast. Some of the best footwork I have ever seen. Hes literally impossible to pin down. He shoots the left with power. His counter uppercut is sick. His defense and reflexes are insane. I think hes the best going away. Figts with WV2, Cab, Lopez, John, Gamboa and the last rumour I heard was Donaire. So he has a chance to make some noise. Didn't name Johnson or Despainge, they seem to old to get very far imo. Solis was a rumour I heard, corrected for now. Rigondeaux is around the same age as them but much more talented, hard to say on him.

those just rumors or do you have any links or discussions on the matter I can read on? Seems hard to believe as he's close to getting some bigger named opponents... Just seems to be a rumour, will correct now. What do you think about the rest of them ?, which ones do you prefer to go far. Rigondeaux has some crazy talent but he's 29 years old :/ might be too late for him.

what do you mean that Solis "dropped boxing for good"? explain yoself That's what I heard, dropped it to live a good life or something, seen it on another forum.
