    I hope this stings for Rigo so that he will remember it 2 fights from now when his contract with Top Rank is up.

    He'd be a fool to resign with them again.

      Seems like Rigo has a problem signing contracts with the wrong people.

        Rigos manager did an interview on Fighthype and said if Arum doesn't find Rigo a fight by November they could get out of their contract with Top Rank.

            You cant headline and carry shows with that kind of fighting style. Add the fact that he's not american and cant speak english and fights in the lower weights where you have to do something spectacular to get noticed...

            he's gonna have the same problems with whomever he signs with.

              Folks keep bashing Arum...i'm sure Arum has no issues finding Rigo fights..what i'm sure is a problem for Arum is finding Rigo fights that pay him $2 million. Rigo will in all likelihood end up on the Pacquaio undercard, like it or not boring fighters regardless of how talented they are do not pull in ratings and ratings = Money. I'd like for one of the arum bashers in here to show me one fighter in GBP that's as skilled and boring as Rigo pulling in $2 million, or doing ppv's, or doing anything beyond FNF, mini events, or FS1 or headlining any Showbox event. Mares is knocking people out, Mikey Garcia is knocking people out...that's all I gotta say about that ishh right there.

                  rigo also needs to be more flexible with the weights. Say yes to 126 fights. He cant be too picky.

                      Only in Top Rank can a guy totally dismantle a consensus top 5 P4Per then be shelved indefinitely. Ridiculous.
