    Are you sure Cuba hates him?

        Arum is right. Remember boxing is about business and they need casual fans to make a profit. Rigo is new to pro boxing while Donaire is already here for quite sometime. Even though Donaire is a Filipino and has an impressive record before the Rigo fight can't attract even his own people let alone the casual fans where the money is.

        It is all about your style how you please the casual fans and Rigo was happy to land a few punch then run around the rest of the round will never help him to get his big payday. Another good example, Marquez and Bradley beat Pac. Both are popular among their own people and boxing fans but you may wonder why back then and unti now they can't get their own ppv fight against lesser opponent? Because their style are boring to casual fans.

          At least officially, yes. His name is forbidden in the press and hardcore Cuban revolutionaries hate him. Maybe some regular people donīt but itīs irrelevant because they donīt show his fights nor mention him. Like I said he is considered a traitor by the government officials.

              Why sign a fighter if you don't plan to promote him?

                Hand him over to DE LA HOYA. He will promote the hell out of him.

                    Wow, extremely disrespectful.
                    I would want out of my contract with Arum if I was Rigo.

                      It wasn't a close fight, it was a classic master class in boxing, and boxing is what you have chosen to promote Bob. So do your f ing job. Stop whining man, or get outta the sport and retire to Hawaii. There you can sit in the bar downing those fancy drinks with the fruit and parasols in them all day.
