Comments Thread For: Arum Wants Donaire-Walters, Not Rigondeaux Rematch

Of course. Neither of them want Rigo.

I don't get why everyone thinks that he's going to move to GBP and get a fight with Santa Cruz, and everything is going to be right in the world.

Wake up people, Lara hasn't even gotten fight with Canelo yet what makes you think Golden Boy will feed one of their Mexican hypes to a slick Cuban? Santa Cruz will never fight Rigo. If Rigo signs with GBP, Santa Cruz will make his way up to 126.

Yep, Santa Cruz is very good, but the one time his unknown opponent gave him some movement on NBC, he didn't look very good. He's about to outgrow 122 legit anyway

Walters is one tough Jamaican. He is 23-0, 19 KO's with a 83% KO rate. They are extremely fast people with fast twitch muscles, ala Usain Bolt. Donaire-Walters is a 50/50 fight, I need to watch more tape of Walters to see how good he is.

African blood runs deep!!! Athletically gifted !!! When a 300lbs Man running 4.4, 4.3, 4.5 in the 40 yard dash!!!

Can you refrain from saying ******ed stuff for once? Donaire was just on an undercard, meanwhile Rigo is headlining vs a guy who's never been on HBO and never competed at 122

VIC lost to Agbeko and it was Vic first fight @ 122 !!!

VIC lost to Agbeko and it was Vic first fight @ 122 !!!

it was also donaire's first fight at 126 and he was coming off a loss and a shoulder injury.

No dude, that was at 118. Agbeko has never had a meaningful fight above 118

Good lord, I know this has nothing to do with it.

But Arum won't even let Donaire near Rigon....and you think it was ever possible for a Mayweather Vs Pacquiao fight????? And add to that Rigon is a Top Rank fighter....

exactly, the only reason the first fight got made is because donaire really had no choice but to take on rigo without it looking bad. arum never wanted it and we saw why. there is no point in a rematch but donaire said it himself that he wanted it in front of everyone

[PunchyPotorff]

Arum it seems the older he gets the more he tries to control the sport too much. He needs to stop ignoring Rigo, or at least have the common courtesy to cancel his contract so the man can get with a promoter who believes in him. This is ridiculous. The man flat out schools his golden calf, and Arum won't even give the man the time of day. Pathetic.

And of course, what daddy says, goes. Funny...I just watched 2 days on Andre Ward and he told Donaire to work hard and if he works hard, he'd never be beat. He shoulda listened. Now he wants to redeem himself and daddy says do what I say. He's gonna work hard for the rematch but if he worked hard to begin with, he may have won. Or at least had a better shot or felt better in losing knowing he didn't slack.

That reply was about Vic losing to Agbeko but still taking a rematch against a good talent like Donaire and fighting his fight!!! No disrespect to the fighters homie
