Even by nsb standards the change in rigo was quite something. People were keeping him p4p top 3 after years of weak opponents, i remember more than one poster telling me 'hes clearly the best fighter in the sport'. Another eye test hero with a thin cv but everyone was so sure he was this ATG master boxer.Think i did a thread where i said how do we know hes actually that great and i got slaughtered just like i do when i question crawford. A year later hes never talked about and people don't even consjder it a decent win for Loma, who they said was ducking him.funny to see now all his fans jumped off the bandwagon after just one loss. they literally thought he was a god who could walk on water.
we should get a promotors license :rofl:. if we can sell rigondeaux to a boxing audience again we can f#cking sell anything! i'll sell the pope some communion wafers, you sell trump a black lives matter Tshirt :D
haha there u go, and while we're at it lets give that gonzo looking kap a MAGA hat
he got an Xray and it didn't show any breaks. take a year off for a bruised hand?! yeah f#cking right!
fighters have gone12 rounds with a broken hand before. great fighters have won.
rigondeaux is not fighting because he's not worth paying money! you guys really, really resist that idea, but it's a f#cking fact and one he brought onto himself! he migh tbeat your guys, he'll make them look awful in victory or defeat unless your name is vasyl.
his career is over, has little or nothing to do with that hand. it's not like the dude threw punches with his other hand, he literally ducked his head under lomachenko's waist, avoided punishment, and quite having hardly even been broken down. he quit and you should expect fans to quit on him!
I was being sarcastic
you know what, I've never thought about a rematch for those but that's a great idea
I wouldn't mind seeing Donaire get punked like that again lol
but yea at this stage for them, why not
Probably the best thing for either one

nonito is at least a hall of famer. rigondeaux had one great win and spent most of his prime as an amateur.
that rematch, now that i think of it, is probably the only fight i care to see rigondeaux in.

Loma robbed him like he robbed Nonito lol

He had to give himself time to heal that hand. You don’t want to rush back after an injury like that

If you can recognise the skill rigondeaux has displayed at times then you can understand its a shame he wasnt better promoted when younger.
dude enough with this nonsense! they got a cuban who spoke no english onto major network TV and headlining cards! what else do you want? want them to slap people on the wrist when they tune into the fight and think it sucks?
promotion doe!
wrong! rigon..DOE! if somebody could make money off fo that guy they would have. this rhetoric that "the man" had it out for rigondeaux is just ridiculous! arum, HBO, they all tried!
the f#ck do you want them to do, sink more money into a dude who makes people turn the TV off or literally leave the arena? sheesh, you guys are f#cking clueless! rigondeaux was an underachiever and it's almost all his fault! the guy didn't change a thing about his style, he fought utnil he was a grown man and set in his ways as an amateur, and he has one good win to show for it, in spite of having very obvious, world class, once in a generation talent!
i did find it funny when he broke jazza dickens jaw though...
biggest mismatch ive ever seen lmao
he had it all! speed, some of tthe best accuracy and timing of his generation, and real power! but when he wasn't looking spectacular he aactually kind of sucked! really! the amateurs ruinedhim. he had talent, talent, talent. he did't see the need to do damage and boxed for points, which is a hellish flaw in terms of being effective, but additionally can also be the nail in your coffin as far as a career goes. i'll never forget the night he fought in in AC against agbeko and literally 2/3 of the arena left. almost nobody stayed! if that doesn't light a fire under you you need to go back to amateur boxing, because you don't f#cking get it!
If he was serious about boxing he could make a good run at 126, plenty of great fights there...Russell Jr., Frampton, Santa Cruz. Loma robbed his soul.
Loma robbed him like he robbed Nonito lol

one of the least marketable elite fighters to come to american TV.
literlaly the only thing he had going for him was his "boogeyman" status, and once you get your ass kicked and quit that goes out the window!
he had one fantastic win, a shutout of bigger nonito donaire when he was one of the best pound for pound fighters in the world. otherwise his career was a huge, huge let down. and i know this is going to piss some people off, but that is because of his style! if you are not exciting people will not watch you fight or pay you six or seven figures to do it!
