Anybody else think HBO n bob kinda setting up Rigo up to fail. AC is on the east and a lot of ppl gonna be at BK for Zab vs Paulie. Why not do this in Miami??? Or why not the next week, go up against that Broner ppv???
hopefully I'll get a good deal on seats
AC for Rigo vs AGBEKO???? Are they going to use mannequins to fill the seats? They can have Jeff Ross in a stage next to the ring to see if it attracts a few more people.

I don't think Top Rank's intention is to sabotage their own fighter. But, if that's the case, Arum can refuse to re-sign Rigo when their contract expires. Guille can do the same. All that's left is this fight and one more.
What? They already tried to sabotage him before. Did you forget claims from Rigo saying his own promoter was trying to rob him of a decision?

I don't know what their rationale is. But these people are in business to make money. They must think Zab-Paulie isn't a big issue.

This is on the same day as paulie/zab. I like the zab/paulie fight better the atmosphere will be crazyyyy, i'm going to that one.
Two Brooklyn fighters fighting in Brooklyn? Yeah, it's gonna be nuts.

It's a double header with Macklin/Willie Nelson.
I already like the card. HBO is trying to push Nelson and he was in a tough scrap last fight, but it'll be interesting to see his game plan for Macklin.
Atlantic City? BOOOOOOO.
I know. What a letdown. I was pumped for Miami. I always knew you can't believe everything you read even in the papers, but this is bad. SMH

Interesting. I saw HBO wanted it on Ward's card but Agbeko declined that date. Then Arum said it would be on JCCjrs card. I guess they decided to give Rigo a chance to headline.
Ahhhhh, was hoping it was in Miami, but it's all good. Just glad Rigo finally gets some more shine! Kudos to Agbeko for pushing to make the bout as well.
Thought they were going to fight in Miami but it's good to see him back in the ring
Well... I wanted Miami but if it was gonna be the 7th I wouldn't had been able to make it.
Since it's AC I should be there unless I gotta work that weekend.

Agree miami would've been awesome, but AC is not bad.
I was really, really hoping for Miami. What makes it worse is that "El Nuevo Herald" reported the fight would be held there and really got my hopes up. What a rag. lol
Anyway, it sounds like a good fight. Let's do it.
WAR Rigo!
