I call BS on HBO not "wanting" Rigondeaux

[ИATAS]

That's not how Ken Hershman rolls. He's having Geale vs Barker for crying out loud you think anyone in the states cares? Nope, but Hershman is about giving guys exposure regardless of ratings. Rigo is clearly one of the most talented fighters on the planet. This is Bobs excuse of making other fights like Donaire vs Darch instead of Rigondeaux vs Donaire rematch or even Rigondeaux vs Darch.


Until HBO states they dont "want" Rigo, I consider this complete BS by Arum.

I would also seek legal council if I were Rigondeaux because its clear his promoter does not have his best interests at hand and should see if there is a legal way to get out of his contract.

I don't want to hear people say "Rigo is boring " either if you cant appreciate the Sweet Science go watch UFC. Further, Mayweather wins his fights more or less like Rigondeaux does and hes the most watched boxer in the world despite being "boring".

If this would mean that Rigo goes to Showtime and fights Mares, this is good. I have no complaint.

The question remains if Arum would be willing to release him so he can sign with his rivals.

I've been saying the same thing on here and Twitter. I call bs on Arum.

He should just try to get out of his contract and seek out GB.

[WARQUEZ]

I don't. Rigo is expensive and boring as hell.

[Phenom]

with all these **** fights at least on paper HBO been putting together lately don't see why they would draw the line with Rigo

[illmaticfighter]

rigo has to be more aggressive simply because of him being foreign and older.

floyd built his career here and when he was younger was more aggressive.

i love rigo style but many people don't so rigo has to get them watching if he wants to have a good career before he hits 40.

They may be balking at his minimum purse. They probably can make Geale Barker for what Rigo got for his last fight, and he could be expecting the same or better now that he beat Donaire. That's the only thing that makes sense. Other than Arum lying about it, lol

[vacon04]

Arum is just mad because Rigo destroyed his beloved Nonito. Now he wants to rebuild the Filipino career by feeding him more bums and taking Rigo out of his way. Unfortunately for him Rigo is a supremely talented boxer and is not going anywhere.
