Comments Thread For: Rigondeaux's Manager: Good Progress Made With HBO

[Tomasio]

HBO & Arum most likely have noticed that just about everyone was supporting Rigondeaux & knew they are FULL OF S H I T & all they were trying to do was to "Blackball" Rigo & now are trying to fix things up..

[whoseyourdaddy]

they are mad because rigo put on a whoopping clinic against donaire. if i were rigo. i would tell hbo to kiss my ass. i'm sure goldy and showtime would love to have him. he can fight santa cruz or mares. those would be good fights.

actually Espinoza Showtime main man, already said that HBO should give Rigo a date, that he deserved it by schooling Nonito. Espinoza said is totally unfair to say Rigo is not exiting, he enjoy the clinical precision with whish he punish Donaire, he said he would have him fight in showtime if they allowed him to fight for him.

Maybe he'll change his aggressiveness for one fight but than he'll go back to same old Amatuerish

Rigo not exciting? He tagged Donaire badly with a left cross in the 1st round...
Review that fight: Donaire came in with no stiff jab against a surgical southpaw impersonated here by Rigondeaux. What one could expect from such a fight when "big entertainer" Donaire came in the ring without the basics required?

Like he managed to take out all Donaire's "aggressiveness" with one punch in the first round? Donaire looked disoriented since then...
Amatuerish, huh?

Lets hope HBO realizes that Rigo would be a great matchup for Mares and Santa Cruz and makes those fights. I believe fights with those two fighters would not only be exciting, it would be anyone's fight....they are all fantastic fighters in their own styles with Santa Cruz being aggressive, Rigo being more clever, and Mares being a little of both would make for some solid action.

I think it is laughable how HBO will have no problem broadcasting a main event in the fall of 2013 featuring Nonito Donaire knocking out a stiff who doesn't belong in the same ring with him, but doesn't want to broadcast any fight featuring Rigondeaux. I am sure if Rigondeaux had gotten KO'd in the Donaire fight, he would have already made another appearance on HBO.

I am sure Arum will arrange to get him a fight on television because, if he doesn't, Rigondeaux will be able to cancel his contract and sign with GBP. Arum won't allow that to happen.

Yah Amatuerish and bush league!! Like coasting when your ahead on points instead of going for the knockdown. And if Donaire was so dazed? Why didn't he finish Donaire off?

Donaire walks around at 145, has a great chin and has never been kod. He was a legit top 5 p4p going into the fight.
