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

[ИATAS]

Who do you want him to promote Rigo against?

Who Arum? It doesn't matter. But be creative, start calling this guy the greatest defensive, counter puncher of all time. Say he has cat like reflexes. Say he's better than Mayweather. Say stuff like, "will Rigondeaux be hit? Can he be touched?" Go on and on and hype the guy up, call him a freak of nature, the greatest talent the world has ever seen. Greatest reflexes since Whitaker. Whatever it takes. Spin it to his benefit. Make people believe what they are watching is amazing and one of a kind. If that doesn't peak some interest, then so be it. But don't talk ***** about your own ****ing fighter! That for sure isn't helping.

Give Rigo a few brawlers and he'll be the new Pacquiao
But seriously, feed him some Darchynians and Montielsand he'll look like a million dollars.
Amazing that Bob gave him crap for beating Nonito, it wasnt pretty, but he still beat the best in the division.
This is even worse than the Bradley story

Part arum is to blame but rigo is at fault too for being too conservative when he fights. Hbo is about entertaining, that's what the majority pay for. Rigo disrespects paying customers by not putting on a show when he clearly has the skills and physical attributes too do so.

Rigo did say he doesn't care what fans think if they boo or what not.. Rigor is just looking to win. He is a top fighter and would be better off leaving HBO and Arum

Arum is a disease. The sick bastard plays with lives, sabotages people's futures, for incremental profits. Easily one of the slimiest **** the boxing world has ever seen.

Listen Bob Arum is no boyscout...I get it and have for 30 + years of Bob.

But who is the public demanding to see Rigo fight ?

The first pro fight that I saw him in was on Pac-Margarito PPV and he should have lost badly to Cordoba. He ****** !!!

The Merroquin fight was the answer for insomnia.

He is just boring,period. He gets hurt or knocked down by journeyman,barely wins,has a glass jaw,and gets on his bicycle every fight.

He is a promoter's nightmare !!!

He doesn't draw more than friends and family,is awful tv fighter,doesn't come to WAR,speaks no/little English, fights at 118-122 and doesn't talk ****e !!!

Arum should dump him.Let GBP pick him up so that WAR Mares and WAR Santa Cruz can whoop this dude.

What is his home base for selling tickets at ?This dude couldn't sell out McDonalds.

About Fugging time!

#warrigo!

I can't see Arum letting Rigo go. He would rather let him rot than have GBP promote him and make him a superstar.

[toolegit]

Rigo is good but his style is hard to sell. People want to see fighters fight not dance.

[Build That Wall]

Arum should acknowledge his request. Its about time Rigo said something.
