The way people talk about Rigo in here makes you think they're talking about a no talent, bum ass boxer.
If Wilfredo Vazquez Jr was able to make things difficult for Donaire, Rigo has a great chance at beating him. The Donaire hype bandwagon is out of hand in NSB.

Rigo was asking for too much money. My god, just imagine what he must have been asking for initially to get him down to $750k. No wonder it took so long for this to get made. Mathebula, Vasquez, and Nishioka only got paid $100k by HBO so those were easy fights to make.

That's money out of Donaire's pocket. He just become fighter of the year so HBO is now willing to pay more for his fights. That was all of Donaire's work, not Rigo's that made it possible to get that payday. That Rigo was holding out is exactly my point. Rigo was the one holding up the fight because he wanted a ridiculous amount of money while he and his cult screamed duck and that Donaire was scared.
