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

So can we get Inoue vs Rigo as a co-headliner? #justsaying

Rigo seen that article from Memo Heredia and pulled out lol. Smart move or bad?

Whatever's happened here I do hope that Rigo's at least getting something good out of it. He's been screwed over so many times in his career it's unreal.

Gonna be rooting for Donaire though, all the same

/...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?

It wasn't a war at all.

Donaire blew out Oubaali in 4 rounds.

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.

Rigo is not black. But I seen this on twitter. Don’t know how true it is.

Interesting Development. I would like to know how this unfolded and whether or not Rigo was compensated or he preferred to face TBA instead of Casimero.

Risky fight for Donaire. I imagine he catch Joel coming in wild but Casimero can crack. I'm conflicted on this, I was looking forward to the clash of styles between Rigo and Casimero but Nonito is a bigger name and nice matchup as well.

Yeah he didn’t take any punishment at all in that fight. He really assaulted the Frenchman

First of all there’s no race called white or black. You should’ve learned that in Middle School. Cubans aren’t African American if that’s what you’re referring to. Most Hispanics and Cubans identify as white if we’re being honest.
