Comments Thread For: Donaire Replaces Rigondeaux, To Face Casimero In 118-Pound Unification Fight August 14

Rigo is with PBC, too, right? If Donaire wins, he might go with the easier to set up rematch with Rigo. It's hard to believe Haymon would snatch this fight away from Rigo without promising him something.

Yes Rigo is advised by Haymon and Donaire is promoted by Ringstar who falls under the Haymon umbrella. According to coppinger Rigo gets the winner is the rumour

Okay, I guess this makes some sense.

Rigo vs Russell or Rodriguez next makes sense.

Watch Inoue fight a third consecutive bum in a row after he KO’s the uber driver this weekend.

He's likely on the card and gets the winner. If I were him, I wouldn't have agreed to this though.

SHO though is absolutely killing it. Three unifcation bouts from July to September with Charlo vs Castano in July, Donaire vs Casimero in August and Fulton vs Figueora in September.

It appears rumours and reports, by a certain Essex blowhard, of showtime’s demise were greatly exaggerated. Showtime has pulled ahead of FOX as providing the best content in boxing.

Bingo! Can you imagine it? A big PPV with PBC and TopRank starring Japanese and Filipino-American stars? The first of its kind in the USA to my memory. Haymon is a genius. They should have that fight in Honolulu, Lol Angeles, or San Francisco. A massive potential for new fans in American boxing

Really insane! Thanks for your post

FOX is only putting on good fights on PPV. Started with good, competitive fights in 2019 and now use regular FOX cards as just lead ups for PPV events. SHO has been on a far different level than FOX.

Actually dazn has been involved in the highest valued boxing fights as of late mainly due to canelo. Fox and showtime are currently showcasing me go round boxing snoozers in an attempt to replicate repetitive and prolonged sports seasons such as football and basketball. It is failing and people are tired of Spence and charlo ducks. To me it seems haymon with his apparent preference toward his fellow black fighters is going to let the two Filipinos fight each other off and let rico come in and have to only fight one of them for the belts instead of two. Maybe he feels donaire can beat Casimiro more easily than rigo can and know rigo will wash donaire again. Thus manipulating Another black man into “undisputed” status.

/...Donaire fought last month and if I recall, that was a bit of a war.

I wonder if this wise for Nonito's health.

But apparently Rigo was down for it. Maybe he didn't want to fight Casimero?

Agreed to step aside and will get the winner instead.

Moloney was ranked top 5 by Ring Magazine and TBRB before he fought Inoue. He was no bum. He's Still ranked ahead of Rigo even with the loss.
