Marroquin was in the room showing love too.

something along the lines of he's not going to pay x amount of money for the belt. They might as well keep it. Something like that.

lmao I kept hearing Guille say something about fifty thousand dollars, but I couldn't understand what it was all about.

What a lot of people don't realize is that for a guy like Rigo, after coming from poverty in Cuba, that kind of money will always mean something, even if he becomes a multi-millionaire.

Thanks for posting that video, man. How I would've loved to be in that room! It was cool to see Marroquin there. The big, dark-skinned Cuban guy in the grey jacket that came into the camera was Livan Hernandez, former major league pitcher and World Series MVP.

Cubans talk fast man, and I have trouble understanding but from what I got, some dude was supposed to present him with $50,000 check. He came up with a check for like $42,000 and Rigo told him to get the *** out of here with that...hahaha


So he said he would go and fix it. He just kept telling people "I told you I would win, nobody gave me a chance".

yeah and its most probably his biggest pay day yet.

The exploitation of the fighters has to stop. They come in demanding for that much to be paid straight after his fights. He shouldn't have to pay for a belt that he won. It will prevent good fighters from winning a belt if they haven't got a good promoter backing them.

Is that what it was? lmao

Thanks for the gist. Rigo earned every penny. They better pay up.

I wish his family could be there to celebrate with him.

So I guess Rigo made a total of $800K. Wonder how much of that he will actually see.
