Arum says that G. Rigo just wanted a Spanish version of the VADA contract. Everything is fine. So all they needed was Rosetta Stone #boxing
@TheFightSource
@stevemaxboxing Are you joking?
5 mins Steve Kim @stevemaxboxing
@TheFightSource - no, he said an interpretor was brought in and a Spanish version of the contract was drafted...
The contracts fighters have to sign are available on VADA's site and arent even that long, only a few pages, and one of them is in spanish
yup....seems like rigo is the one making an excuse to postpone signing the VADA contract...weird... i guess the testing has been postponed for rigo then...it should have happened much sooner.
Also you'd think there was somebody in his group that he can talk to read english
Like he reads contracts anyway. Plus those contracts are pretty standerd
Smdh..... The in thing to do is to blame Donaire but Team Rigo are dragging their feet
They are definitely dragging their feet, and with a sensitive issue like drug testing. These kind of things should have been handled a long time ago. Its 7 weeks till the fight and testing hasnt even started?

Stop trying to flip this stuff around. Everyone sees right thru Donaire's tactic.

Why does it matter that Hyde was out of town? We live in a digital age. Contracts can be faxed or emailed. Hyde likely had already seen the English VADA contract a while back. According to the new article up boxingscene, Hyde requested a Spanish translation barely today and top rank sent them the Spanish translation today as well. See, it took less than a day to get a translation. Why is Rigo doing this just now when it should have been done as quick as possible? Maybe Rigo is telling the truth, but i don't fault Donaire for being angry over Rigo taking his sweet time.
I believe Hyde gets into town tomorrow? So maybe to have the contract ready? God forbid Rigo takes another day to sign. Donaire might just have another heart attack.

Rigo has a thousand managers and promoters to help him out. The Caribe promotions people speak Spanish. They couldn't translate the contract for him?
But whatever, it's going to happen anyway.

Props to Nonito for showing Rigondeaux who the muh****in boss is and calling this coward out for going back on his word regarding drug testing. It's one thing if Rigondeaux never VOLUNTEERED for drug testing during the negotiations, but he did and now wants to hem and haw on it. B1tch move in my opinion.
Donaire already exerting his control over Rigondeaux during the negotiations, and it'll be the same in the ring too.

i really think Rigo is going to fail the test if he takes it. somethins not right here
nah he probably did the bulk of his training using steroids before the initial contract was even signed..he postponed signing the VADA contract until he cleans his system of the peds, which is why he's making this excuse for a spanish version of the contract now...it's pretty blatant what's going on...
had rigo signed the VADA contract as soon as he got it, the testing would have started asap..but since he's postponed signing it (to clean out his system), the testing for rigo hasn't started yet...by the time rigo signs the VADA contract and he gets his first test his system will be cleaned and his tests will come out negative..
whoever is supplying rigo with the designer peds (most likely it's heredia) they know what they're doing...
Team Rigo could not hire a translator the day the contracts were received?
Yeah, good play...

Yeah, good play...did it really need to take this long for Arum to get them to him?
