Donaire: "Rigo priced himself out" [VIDEO]

[.:: JSFD26 ::.]

if rigo thinks 150 k is peanuts then it's beliveable he did price himself out...montiel only made 300k againts nonito and has been in the game for a long time..rigo has 11 fights for f0kk sake

You sounding like Sucketts now, always the same argument. Got any new ones yet?

Being a nobody, not accomplishing anything, and pricing himself too high aren't unrelated subjects.

But why didn't Donaire say this from the jump as opposed to switching reasons? It's not a good look, especially to say that now when he's not fighting Rigo.

[danceswithfire]

Why? Because they've fought in the division longer, yet against similar opposition with the exception of a single fight?You think Vasquez and Mathebula can beat Rigo?

exactly....

..so what if people think rigo beats this and that , thats irrelevenat , people get fights wrong all the time , even experts..what's important is him fighting credible opponents ..

[deejd]

You know... Winky Wright was accused of pricing himself out of a number of fights... fights that he could have easily won. Maybe Donaire just doesn't want to fight him.

what other argument is there in rigo's defense tho?...thats a fact

[-PBP-]

And about this 11-0 shyt. Rigo had an extensive amateur career so he didn't need to fight bums for 3 years to stack his record. Look at Doniaire's pre-Darchinyan resume (first 18 fights)

Kevin Hudgin 5-9-0
Jose Luis Cardenas 5-6-1
Kahren Harutyunyan 13-2-3
Daniel Gonzalez 4-1-0
Larry Olvera5-4-2

You get the point. Look it up yourself. That's 17 of his 29 wins. Rigo is a beltholder in one of the best divisions in boxing and should get the opportunity to unify his title with Donaire.


So GTFOH with that 11-0 talk. Rigo doesn't need to fight bums and journeymen for three years just to get an inflated 36-0 record before he gets a shot at the top guys in the division.

Completely agree, but I don't think Mathebula really has that much more to brag about than Rigo, if he even had anything to brag about in the first. Rico Ramos was a champ... could he brag?

How is Vazquez credible? Please enlightment. What has his accomplished? Besides getting KTFO by Arce.

Is Montiel better than Rigo?

[DoktorSleepless]

Why you trying to play dumb? You tried to make it seem like he's only fighting for 100K.

"Guess how much he's fighting for?"

There was a thread of Donaire mentioning that Rigo priced himself out and I posted in it? Id love to see that too. Still waiting for danceswithfire to find my quote of saying Donaire is ducking Nishioka.

I said "Guess how much Nishioka is getting paid by HBO." It's right in your quote. And I even talk about Japanese money specifically! How exactly did I "conveniently" leave out the Japanese money?

Okay, I apoligize. I had you confused for someone else. This is what I'm refering to though
