Comments Thread For: Rigondeaux: A Fight With Mares Would Have To Be at 122

[-PBP-]

That's because top rank feed their fighters but what does this have anything to do with what mares makes? Like I said when is rigo fighting and who is his opponent?? U would think after his last win he would get treated and promoted to be the next great one instead he doesn't even have a date on when he's fighting next, hmmm I wonder why..

List all of the 122 pounders that have been promoted to be the next great one:

Donaire
Maybe Juanma Lopez


Who else?

Except Mares likely makes more than 150-250k~ so by this time next year Mares will likely be ahead of Rigondeaux in career earnings.

The tortoise and the hare, except in the case the hare is dying of cancer while the tortoise stopped by the side of the road to get some NOS installed.

Mares has his own future and big pay days in his hands as he is an A-side, Rigondeaux will always depend on others and is a b-side

If he could have did it in 12 instead of 26 I'm sure he would.

Everyone wants to win the lottery~

And I am sure Rigondeaux would trade his future opportunities with those of Mares

And if you knew what the **** you were talking about you would know that it is RARE that a network gives a 122 pound fighter any shine.

At age 32 I'd rather have peaked than be hoping for future opportunities. Especially in a violent and corrupt sport like boxing.

Make the most money while absorbing the least amount of punishment.

Both are still in the sport though, so present and future is important to both.

Rigondeaux is the one hoping for future opportunities while Mares is likely going to get his regardless. Once again even if they were the same age

rigondeaux is the wba and wbo champ at 122 ,who beat mares 17-7 in a final for gold medal in a pan nam games. he has always fought at batan weight , amateurs and pro . why didnt mares ,before running to 126 , offer a fight to rigo as they did to "run for your eye "ducknaire ? why mares didnt want to avenge the defeat he suffered to rigo? mares could have tried to make a unification bout for wbc ,wba and wbo to rigo . but not , he forget about those titles and run to 126 . they offered 3 millions for ducknaire , if they had offered 1 million for rigo , im sure bob arum would have given rigo to them .

when they fought, was an amateur tournament, so it doesn't matter anymore, and what the hell are they supposed to offer 1 million for Rigo? he doesn't sell, they're not ******s to give them 1 million if there's no remuneration.

What if Rigo retires 12-0 lol gotta take risks man, just fight! super bantamweight is a terrible division everyone has moved up to featherweight. he shouldn't be fighting at 122 for too much longer. become undisputed champ then move up.
