Rigo better sign that damn contract NOW!

Arum's right, it's craziness!

[thekofixer]

He was fighting in Cuba for a pig and a bike, if. He screws with TR he will be fighting for pigs and a bike again. Real smart. Rigo but reaping can't blame him is all those peps around him and their agendas

[ElBossHogg™]

Go figure Rigo just talking loud all this time and when it time to fight he knows he gonna get knocked out and trying to duck but not looks like a duck. Cuban boxiers is a joke right now

[onechance87]

rigo dont do this to ur few cuban fans.And donare/vic2 a joke

[Russian Crushin]

If Rigo doesn't take this fight he will be buried.....

No he wont, Donaire is the 3rd most hated fighter on here after Pac and Floyd. People will still blame Donaire

[nycsmooth]

@ his age & inactivity he's kissing his career goodbye w/his ******ity...

Rigo messing up his shot at being the victim of knockout of the year

[chav]

Rigo you dumb ***!

Yes there might be legal issues needing sorting, but now isn't the time to do it, that should have been dealt with previously

Rigo has a contract, if this fight doesn't happen the blame lies squarely with him and his team for leaving this to be finalised now.

Vic the **** is exactly the fight I didn't want to see happen. I bet Arum is happy ripping us all off as usual with another **** fight, it's hardly his fault, but this way he keeps Rigo and Donaire for another day.

Rigo you prick

[big_james10]

Rigondeaux should sign the contract, fight the fight, collect his money and save or invest it very wisely because other than Donaire, there is no one else in Arum's stable that Rigondeaux can fight and make half the money. If he decides to pull a Tim Bradley (who turned down more than $2 million to fight Peterson) he will find himself in the same boat at Bradley -- fighting a stiff for less than half of the money he turned down.

When you have to beg for a fight (against Donaire) and your biggest payday is only $750,000, you are not in any position to make demands.

Rigo has 11 fights.

His best win is cordoba.

He has no real fan base.

He just got offered 750k to fight on HBO vs a top 10 p4p fighter and now he's willing to put that at risk because of some legal battle his leeching handlers are fighting over?

Something is not adding up here.


Why not just take the 750k fight on hbo put up a good showing possibly beat donaire and worry about the other stuff later?


Why risk it all?
