Comments Thread For: Arum: Donaire Back on June 16, But Not Against Arce

[reyes066]

rigondeaux is the best 122

[Mr. Fantastic]

Unlikely that Donaire would do that.

Nonito brings the name. He's the A side.

I don't think the A side will travel. But I would love to see him go to Japan.

The A side on this part of the planet. The Japs love their boxing and most that I've met are really good fans.

Correction: And Pinoy land. My bad.

Oquendo is waiting for his title shot...put him with Oquendo another great fight

This. Aquendo is a solid 122 this will be an exciting fight.

[JoelRa79]

Of course not against arce !! Wc2 busted his face all up with just the jab. Arce is equally skilled as Vazquez but with much more experience, he ain't gonna hold back. And of course not rigondeoux either, i bet its gonna be Oquendo.

LOL@ Sidorenko, Narvaez, Vasquez not being Top guys.......LOL!!

They are as top as you can get at the bantamweight divisions. Would you call them a tune-up? Yeah I don't think so...so the next being a tune-up is ok.

[bluetuazon]

so what, the fight will be in the philipines? ha ha.

one thing for sure, he won't be going near rigondeaux in june

yeah because he is going after the number 1 guy in 122...

[bluetuazon]

rigondeaux is the best 122

not...its nishioka..

[torosboxing75]

****ing once or twice on rico ramos chin and once on his ribs makes you the king of a division now?
do you have any idea what nonito donaire (or wilfredo vasquez jr, for that matter,) would do to rico ramos?

is it all that money rigo brings to the table?
his slam ****, top notch, best of the best 9-0 pro record (including a very rough fight with a faded ricardo cordoba,)
maybe that huge cuban fanbase he brings to all of his fights?


if he's earned this fight via something that i'm missing i'd love to hear it.

otherwise you're nominating him the best in the world at 122 over a beating of one of the softest, true paper champions of all time.

Your not Bob arum so don't act like the money's one of your reasons for wanting to defend Donnie, thats first second your right he is 9-0 oh and you forgot 300+ amateur fights. But I agree it doesn't make sense to fight him ever unless they give him enough to retire. I think most hard core boxing enthusiast will agree Rigo has Donnies kryptonite. In fact watch if they ever fight and Rigo can't knock him out he'll get robbed on the cards no matter how bad he schools him.

money is the reason the fight doesn't come off

i have no stake in this. i'm not some nut hugging fanboy

that's the way it is. if you cant see that money runs boxing and allow that notion to create a better understanding of the sport i don't know what else can be done for you.

[fceeviper]

Please let it be Nishioka.

He's the man at 122. Gotta beat the man to be the man.

Hopefully they can lure him to America.

Yes, yes!......but knowing Arum he won't let this happen.
