Comments Thread For: Donaire Says Mares, Rigondeaux Not Likely Next

[OnePunch]

I know for a fact it was a fight in December that TR and GBP worked together. Mares and GBP wanting the fight bad doesn't mean they aren't going to set their own negotiation standards.

you might be thinking of Lara vs. Vanes. GBP and Top Rank didnt techically "work together" though. The fight was a purse bid and Top Rank won so the fight was on their show.............

Donaire is the cash cow, he can choose the date. March could be a whole month away since he mentioned April too.

The date is also up to the network. Manny & Floyd are pretty much the only guys who can without question tell the network "i want xxx date"...........

Second example if you believe or doubt something in print. When Jones agreed to fight Ruiz, a guy said to me there is NO WAY Jones was going to sign the fight and that Jones was a coward and he was willing to be me anything that the fight would never take place. I called up Square Ring Inc., on the phone and asked them for status. They told me that Jones was returning from vacation and was going to sign for the fight as soon as he returned. I had inside information and used it to the point where RFPRO was never allowed to post a message using his AOL account again. He kept his promise. The point is, VERIFY! If someone comes back with proof that Donaire himself is responsible for not fighting Mares or Rigo, I'll dissown the ***er as a fan. How many haters will flip to becomeing a fan if he is not the one behind a fight not happening? Not man, that is for sure. My AOL email was richardtalleyman11@aol.com at the time. I got to keep my account but killed it recently from SPAM.

And that plus the Donaire/Mares negotiations are a step in the right direction if anything pans out.

Terry - I don't think I have met you here or seen many of your posts but it sounds like you are a promoter and we could use your business insight around here to clear up some things. Welcome, or welcome again....hope you stay!

Ive been around here awhile, I just dont post as much as I used to as I'm on hiatus from actively promoting due to starting another business (one that actually makes money lol).

FYI, I represented Nate Campbell from around 2005 through 2010, and have worked with pretty much every major promoter and network over the years, so feel free to hit me up for any insight........
