Congrats to @siri_salido his team and to all the Mexicas 4 a great victory. Let's give all the fans Rigondeaux Vs Salido #ElChacal #TheKing
I dont know how much sense this fight would make or if it is even possible but I'd love to see it. This is the EXACT kind of fighter Rigondeaux needs to face for an exciting matchup imo
i'm a huge Russell jr fan but that is a fight you could pump for rigo... I remember right after the agbeko fight arum was vocally saying he didn't think rigo's style would win fans or make money. Seemed like he wanted to get him out of his stable even. You think Arum would put him in against his supposed cash cow? Ducking or not it wasn't happening. Now that lomo is back to earth rigo as an opponent is someone who can catapult him back to untouchable status and they got the Olympic angle. Only issue is, rigo would school his ass sum vicious and still not be exciting.
Rigo should not call him out unless he will fight him at 130 because Salido said he is done with 126 forever. I think Rigo is much better than Salido or Lomo. Rigo needs to stay at 122 and dominate that weight. Good fighters at 122 will be here soon enough and there are probably some very good fighters he could fight now at 122.
The guy is desperate for a good fight. His shelf-life is short. Rigo needs to get himself a few nice fights within the next couple of years, or his earning power will evaporate. At the rate modern champions fight, Guillermo will be lucky to get two or three decent fights with what remains of his career. I agree that Salido isn't likely to drain down to 126 again for Rigo, but Guille has to try something. They won't allow Lomo to even walk into the same room with him now.

He ducked loma but he made the trip there and was planning on challenging loma after the fight until top rank told him he couldn't do so, ok lol
I like how all the idiots ignored this
I'm sure Rigondeaux is aware that Salido came in at 128lbs and will now move up to 130. So Rigondeaux says he is too small for 126, I don't know if he's gonna ask for a catchweight or something, but if he wants Salido he needs to go to 130.
I'm sure even at 130, Rigo would should Loma how to do it.
Guys have missed weight before and made weight successfully for the same division in their following fight, Kev. No way Rigo fights at 130. It's been said that Donaire entered their 122 lb fight at 140 on fight night. Rigo was something like 124. He'd be giving up way too much weight against Salido. Rigondeaux is the only fighter I'm aware of that actually fights at his natural weight.
and? you point is?
why he calling salido out then? should shut his mouth.
you dont see salido calling him out? lmfao, clowns. cubans I tell ya lol
You're about as smart as you are funny, aren'tcha? It must kill you that a tiny number of Cubans in the game are winning the way they are. It stings, I know.
It's been noted that Guillermo has been tweeting about fighting either Lomo or Salido for weeks. The latest tweet came the day Salido missed weight. So what? It's not like he can never fight at 126 again. Rigo is obviously talking about a fight at the featherweight limit. He could never go up to 130 without getting fat, if that's even possible. "El Chacal" would probably enter a featherweight fight at 124 or so.

nobody cares about that guy with the boring fighting style. hbo don't want nothing to do with rigo. even arum has no use for him. pathetic. fans want action and rigo ain't bringing it.
Rigondeaux is a tiny guy. He literally walks around at nearly his fighting weight. The guy comes into junior featherweight fights at like 124. You want him to fight a guy who came into last nights bout at 147. Who's the hater here?

Yet Loma is the one on record for saying he's not ready for Rigo yet. Okay...
Credit to Lomo on that. They picked who they saw as a softer target in Salido. Little did they know the guy wouldn't make weight and come into fight night at 147. Sheesh....
That's his promoter doing damage control to what Rigo already said himself.
