Comments Thread For: Rigondeaux To Arum: I Won't Accept Any More Disrespect!

Hell yea Rigo! I'm glad you're standing up for yourself!

[FrankieClutch]

Damn right Rigo! Don't stand for Scumbag Bob's nonsense!

[citynation]

At this point I think golden boy would be a better fit for Rigo. Bob doesn't know what to do with him.

good for Rigo. he is a good boxer puncher but needs to be more active in order to get the recognition her deserves as a great boxer. he did a number on donaire. great performance, just needs to fight atleast 3 or 4 times a year.

WBA/WBO super bantamweight champion Guillermo Rigondeaux (12-0, 8KOs) is getting fed up with what he is calling a "lack of respect" from his promoter, Top Rank CEO Bob Arum. Rigondeaux doesn't feel he is getting the proper support since beating Nonito Donaire earlier this year. Rigondeaux's return has yet to be finalized, but Donaire is already booked to return on HBO on November 9th.

Rigo was supposed to be a stepping stone to elevate Donaire to elevate all Asian boxing. They resent him because he won and only matched Rigo vs Donaire because Rigo didn't impress vs Marroquin. **** HBO Latino hating Mexiphobes!

H.B.O. = Hispanic Boxers Out!

Maybe Rigo would be better off with DiBella? After all, he's done a pretty good job with Martinez. There's Shaw as well, but I'm not sure about him since Bradley left on such bad terms. Meanwhile, Ward seems unhappy with Goossen Tutor...

I said it in another topic, but I really don't think a GBP move would be any more beneficial. Schaefer could barely squeeze out a genuine compliment about Rigo's fellow countryman Lara after his win over Angulo, so why would he want another "tough sell"?

Who ever hears a promoter talk crap about their own fighter?! Totally disgusting from Arum. Release him if you can't promote him.

Glad Rigondeaux is speaking up.

Diaz (Bradley's trainer) was saying the same thing, that Arum didn't care about Tim and that he thinks Arum wants Tim to lose to Marquez so they can do another Pac fight or put Marquez in with Ruslan/Alvarado winner.

[soul_survivor]

they should just part ways

And Rigo end up like Gamboa?

Rigo needst o suck it up, he'll get a fight, even if it is against someone less known and for a lesser payday or if he is really willing to fight the best and wants to be a star he should leave Arum and instantly sign to fight Mares. That would get people noticing but Rigo himself has said he has no plans or doesn't want to move up in weight.

Looks like we have the new Gamboa on our hands, another wasted Cuban.

Seem like he going through the same stuff Floyd went through. Boxing will be better off once Arum leaves the game.
