Comments Thread For: Rigondeaux: I'm Just Standing Around, Time is Passing By

He's right. Why no fight? rigo is the pure boxer.

[Bigg Rigg]

8 out of his 12 fights have ended in a KO; but when he totally whitewash the posterboy for hypejobs now he's boring cause Nonito wouldn't engage.

That's really why the fight got a little boring n the fans booed. Nonito was afraid to engage after getting the **** countered outta him. First few rds were great cuz Nonito was fighting but then he got a lil scared.

There is something I don't understand. I may be a bit dense, but I'm sure you guys can help me out. Here it is: if Nonito "Ducknaire" is the "poster boy for hypejob", then why oh why is Rigo top 3 P4P and a living legend for beating him?

You cant argue with insanity

There are people on this board that believe Floyd mayweather is a hype job

Donaire a hype job. How can some boxing fans know so little about the soprt.

Re: the article, Rigo is right; Arum is doing a terrible job promoting Rigo. Why not put a fight card on in Fl where there is a big Cuban population. If HBO doesn't want it, then do an independent PPV; or, put him on the undercard of Pac v. rios. There are plenty of options. There is room for great boxers. Not all boxers have to take 2 punches to land one

Im so happy he is being black balled, he deserves it.
Is a live gate nightmare.
Boring fighter , boring am style, and he wastes your money.
Now he knows. Throw 8 punches per round playing it safe, go back to cuba
, no american money pays for that. Rigo is a 122 pound am fighter.
He beat donaire with no prep and gameplan.

And he put himself on a island .
Great fighter would move to 126/130 and ask for bigger fights, like mikey and juanma and salido and even gary russell

[jlcelestine]

Hbo has a new champ in the division in kiko. Why not pit these two against each other now? The styles matchup well to give us a good fight.

They tried that already with Donaire, and their plans got spoiled. They will keep Rigo away from any future "stars".

I wouldn't go as far as calling Donaire a hype job. He is a legitimately good fighter and is still in the top 10. He just happened to lose to a master class boxer named Rigodeaux.

I can't wait til Rigondeaux's contract is up with Top Rank so he can go to Golden Boy. Showtime is truly ****ftting on HBO right now I must admit LOL.

Two more fights and is over....when those fights happen is a whole new subject. shame!!

[Kuyukut]

*yawn*

say that again, rigo?

*yawn*

That is really really sad... when a fighter thinks he should have LOST A FIGHT to better his career... What kind of person is Bob Arum, to make a fighter get those kind of negative thoughts in his head? Bob Arum and Top Rank need to go away period. Even looking at the Bradley and Marquez fight coming up... that ppv is going to bomb big time.. and it's not because Bradley or Marquez are bad fighters.... I mean look at Marquez.. He is a hall of famer for sure.. but thanks to Bob Arum and Top Rank.. that fight is going to bomb just like their careers are bombing..
