    Rigondeaux vs Frampton

    What are your opinions of this fight? Frampton is a great fighter but by his own admission, he is not ready for Rigondeaux. Why does Hyde want this fight so bad? There is Agbeko, Mijares, Shimoda. Why travel to Belfast to fight little known to US audiences, Carl Frampton?

      Rigo would beat him, but I would pull for Frampton.

        Easy fight to be made.

        Frampton is making quite a name in the U.K
        Hes young, strong, undefeated.
        Hyde is Irish, Rigondeaux is known to the Irish audience from when he blasted out Willie Casey.

        Its a good fight, sure Frampton 'isn't ready' the reality mind you is he never will be.

        Shimoda has done nothing since he got KTFO by Ramos.
        Mijares won't leave Mexico & is coming off a loss.
        Agbeko has never even fought at the weight & had one fight in years

        Frampton makes more sense financially & is ranked higher.

            It would easily sell out in Belfast. Can't think of a fight that would sell out for Rigo in any decent arena anywhere else.

              I've been thinkin about this match-up for a while, but Rigo beating Nonito changed everything. Frampton needs to get a title before stepping to Rigo.

                Frampton needs to fight Quigg ... Rigo would beat him way too easily to make it worth it.
