Comments Thread For: Merchant Responds To Rigondeaux's Complaints on HBO

[PBFP4P]

I wonder would Arum be willing to work with Golden Boy to make Rigo-Mares?

[Kagami Taiga]

Margarito was ranked #1 at Welterweight. He wasn't the real champion but was ranked #1. Nishioka is ranked #1. There is no real champion at 122.

ranked number #1 but he wanst the the champion. baldomir was, because he beat judah. floyd fought the less dangerous fight to get the lineal title to have a shot at dlh.

its all semantics anyways, donaire isnt fighting either nish nor rigondeaux. hes fighting arce...and he claims nishi is next, but im not so sure. we'll see.

Just imagine if the Cuban boxer Rigondeaux, is on the top among the Boxing Superstars, how will he behave?

[Sifo]

i would rather see rigo vs donaire

[PlayerKiller]

Merchant is a moron, He cant have it both ways, this was the same scenario with Mayweather and Margarito, Mayweather was moving to 147 just like Nonito was moving up, Margarito was a beltholder just like rigo is a beltholder, So he cant be saying this while he was saying the opposite when it involves floyd.

Er donaire has plans for arce who is a belt holder too...

And then nishiaka

And thirdly rigo

[Prawn Jovi]

Bingo, Larry! Watch what you say though. You don't want Rigondeaux yelling about not getting a fair shake in Spanish.

Thanks i guess?

It wasn't a compliment, lol

[ManOnTheMoon]

Merchant is out of touch here, fans want competitive fights on HBO, not one sided beatdowns which is what Donaire vs Arce will be. I want Donaire vs Rigondeaux.

[ThePunchingBag]

Would like to see rigo fight donaire somewhere down the road, but admittedly that fight will be a snoozefest.

Most fans, not just boxing purists, would rather see action packed fight with Arce than snooze 12 rd fight against rigo.

I'm thinking of something appropriate to say hmm,
ok got it Larry "YOU AINT ****! HBO NEED TO FIRE YOUR A$S!"
