Comments Thread For: Michel Rivera Wants Liam Paro Next: "Subriel Matias Talked Too Much; Was Too Confident"

They should put him in with Matias! Browny needs a comeback fight ASAP! How you lose in P.R.??? No Bueno!

ASAP is right, once the swelling goes down of course. He's not the first fighter who's lost at home, and he won't be the last.
I believe that this will serve as a hard lesson for Matias, and that he'll return with a vengeance.
Although I have to admit I didn't like the defeated look, and body language that Matias was exhibiting during the post fight press conference.
That's why you should never be so arrogant, or over confident, because you're fighting another man who is coming with the same mindset to win.
Michel Rivera would be be a good opponent, because he can move and box, we can see if he's learned something from the Paro loss.

I guess they have some access to this site and they can promote themselves by name dropping. All fair being the small promotional company that they are.

I guess they have to do what they have to do. It does get a bit annoying tho. I like Wallin and I like Rivera but I get fatigue reading them say they are willing to fight whatever name is relevant at the moment.

Why all these headlines with Michel Rivera? He has done nothing and has the opinion of every other boxers.

It's the standard operating procedure of Salita Promotions. A few years back, they bombarded NSB with Wallin articles where he was calling out every big name...but the big Swede would end up fighting a journeyman on some small card promoted by Salita.

Salita Promotions doesn't have the financial muscle to make big fights with their fighters as the A-side...they try to keep their fighters names out there with articles and hope they get selected as the opponent for a bigger promotion. With DAZN securing streaming rights to smaller promotional outfits, perhaps Salita can do the same so their fighters can get better matchups and visibility. Until then we will continue to see these articles.

He's not that marketable, and more importantly he's not that good. Salita Promotions has to be careful who they put him in the ring against.
If not Michel Rivera just might start his new contractual obligation with a loss.

Subriel Matias did do to much talking, he should've let his hands speak for him in the ring like he normally does.

[Boricua181]

I don't like Rivera and like his skills but he has way too many headlines here in who he wants to fight. He can't make any calls, he don't have a title, he is not popular and he doesn't have the mystique of a big puncher.

You said it all in a nut shell!

Gotten hand it to Rivera. He wants all the smoke. He has called for fights against Davis, Lopez, Stevenson, Loma, Prograis, Matias, Garcia, Cruz, Haney, Valdez, Martin, Zepeda, Kambosos and now Paro. No one can accuse him of ducking

You don't get handed anything in life, you have to earn it. Rivera wants all the smoke, and he'd get smoked by each, and every fighter he's called out to fight.

[Boricua181]

Why can't they get this guy a fight yet? He's been with his new promoter a few months now, and no fights lined up?
