,,don't worry Bob, Rigg's got all of Cuba and die hard boxing critics to pay for Riggs pay check. Rigg can actually slug it out but he just chose to hit and run. That's the difference between Amateur and Professional. Excitement is what most fans want. Unfortunately for Rigg at his age and style, he is a tough sell. His size makes him a very limited boxer too. Bob, it is all your fault so STFU! Mares fight would have been 10X more entertaining and more money! You just killed it, just like the supposedly Jr/Pac dream fight. Could have made more money....!

Your a promoter Bob that has accomplished a lot. Embrace the challenge and get creative.

You put him with there against guys like Arce he will look like a power punching machine. You put him in there with guys that sit and wait on them he will pick them apart and it won't be very crowd pleasing.

Put Rigondeaux in with Arce, Vazquez, Nishioka, he'd look like an exciting Fighter of the Year with 3 KO's. Arum finds it "challenging" because he does not want to really promote him.

What the hell? Donaire only pushed forward in 1 round yet it's rigos fault for boxing safe when he already had the fight pretty much locked up?

And who came out in the 12th and tried to do some damage? Certainly not Donaire.

While watching Rigo last night I could not help but to think of the late legend Willie Pep. Some claim that Pep could win a round without even landing a punch and that was what Rigo reminded me of. Not that he wasn't landing punches and I thought that what he did was a beautiful thing to watch. I also believe that any true boxing fan could appreciate what he did. If not maybe you should try watching the UFC.

Well said, and it speaks of the decline of real boxing fans....

Truth and nothing but the truth!

I heard it, he took out the idiot part before Arum went straight Casino on his ass.
