[Green Hornet]

Only time can beat rigo. No one in his weight class can.

[CTC JOHNNY]

Rigondeaux is a top flight Champion !!! Agbeko is a true champion caliber fighter !!!! Solid fight

arum is a smart man. a great promoter. why in the world would he have rigo headlining a card anywhere but miami? he might sell 500 tickets in atlantic city.

Doesn't make sense to me, but I don't pretend to know more than Bob.

[Build That Wall]

About time. Time to show what true boxing is all about. Rigo wins by KO RD 9 bodyshot.

Chacho Cuba, el cabron dijo en Texas.... Who puts a fight between a Cuban and an African in ****in Texas??? I doubt it goes there.

bro you can put rigo in miami and i guarantee the 7 cuban boxing fans in this world wont go

remember miami have the biggest fake plastic fans


rigo deserves better

[mex602]

Arum has had very little interest in attempting to capitalize on the Cuban boxing market specifically in Miami. As small as it might seem it can and will grow given the wave of talent that keeps coming off the island. Unfortunately all top guys are scattered, with different shot callers that have little interest in taking financial risks.

How great would it be for most of the top Cubans to be under the same banner?

It's obvious they don't have the largest of fan base, domestically, but given the mentioned circumstance you'd think it at least encourage a promoter to attempt to build a fan base in a region.

Well the Paulie vs Zab fight is that night and it will be in Brooklyn. Most ppl on NYC will head to that instead of the Rigo fight so ticket sales might take a hit. TV ratings will too. **** it, hope Rigo does his thing and puts on a good fight.

i rather watch rigo

wishful thinking

wishful thinking

Very wishful, I agree. But never an impossibility.
