Sooooooo Molitor is with Top Rank right? How does he get this fight done while feeding Marroquin to Rigo?

Why wouldn't Arum make Rigo-Molitor and Marroquin-Frampton. Makes WAY more sense.

Why wouldn't Arum make Rigo-Molitor and Marroquin-Frampton. Makes WAY more sense.

I think by now it is crystal clear Arum has no plans for Rigo and people wonder why he's been fighting the opposition he has. Rigo getting shafted and the cold shoulder.

I really think he didn't/doesn't wanna put pressure on a bout between Rigo and Donaire by giving Rigo opponents worth a damn. He doesn't wanna risk losing his Filipino star....

Big step up for Frampton.

[Enzo Mc is SHIT]

Huge opportunity for Frampton. Definitely not the sort of easy fight guys of his experience usually take.

[Sparked_26]

Molitor has been around for an age though. So he could be there for the taking.

That said Frampton has a very solid look about him. I just can't imagine him unraveling once he does step up in class. Although, it would not be sensible for him to get in there with Rigo.

good matchup & it's nice to see molitor fighting again but he has never been the same since caballero destroyed him...
