Comments Thread For: Rigondeaux: I'm Willing To Give Donaire Another Beating

[tank17211]

WBA/WBO super bantamweight champion Guillermo Rigondeaux (12-0, 8KOs) is open to the idea of having a rematch with Nonito Donaire, but not at the featherweight limit of 126-pounds. Rigondeaux would take the fight if Donaire agreed to catch-weight of 123-pounds, and a weigh-in on the morning of the fight where Donaire would be unable to weigh more than 10-pounds over the weight (133-pounds). If Donaire win a world title at 126-pounds, that might tempt Rigondeaux to move up for another title.

Wow radio silence from Donaire. Donaire looked horrible in his last fight. Donaire has not mentioned Rigondeaux since the night they fought.

Rigo beat Donaire?

Rigo did a marathon in every round when he fought Donaire. He is not the kind of boxer who can entertain boxing afficionados. Even if he has the belt of Donaire, people didn't talk about him but talked about Donaire and his explosiveness in the ring. Example is when he fought Darchinyan to a brawl and proved to the world that Rigo is a fluke and just grabbed the belt by running all day long. And Rigo has the guts to say Donaire absorbed a beating when we saw that he was the one who visited the canvas on the 10th! hahahaha!

I hope rigo ends Nonita Douchenaire's boxing career. he didn't look good in his last fight against a blown up flyweight.

thats a little unfair comparison. Floyd is the P4P king while Canelo is a school boy who lacked experience.

Rigo and Donaire are a lot closer. If Donaire changes up his strategy a bit he still has a shot to win more rounds and make it a close fight.

No, Rigo's schooling of Donaire was equally as comprehensive.

Yes this tends to happen. Fighters outgrow the division. Truth be told Donaire outgrew those divisions a long time ago. He was basically draining himself into 115 and 118.
The fact whether right or wrong is that Rigo needs the rematch more than Donaire, since Donaire moves the $. If the rematch happens it should be at 126. Where I still think Rigo schools him.

Donaire ate his way up in weight. He didn't out grow anything.

A rematch would be great! Rigo needs to shake off some ring rust and a tune-up fight with a has been would do the trick.

Shame on Rigo, "he will give Donaire another Beating..." whehhhhh....

What he do in the ring when they fight with Donaire was a marathon race inside the ring.. he keep on running that is why he win. what a boring fight...

Rigo is a great boxer, i would like to see a rematch to shut those people up who are still not sold on him. The skill-level is just awesome, cant understand why people say hes boring. Hes not boring at all! He has great skills but he also has great power. But skills pay the bills, are people really blaming him for using his defense??
Andre Ward is boring because his style is just awfull! But not Rigo!

Lots of stipulations = fear

If Rigondeaux feels he is so superior to Donaire, he shouldn't be putting up such ridiculous and unheard-of terms, like making Donaire go to the scale the day of the fight and having to weigh no more than a certain weight on fight night. Not to mention the weird catch-weight he is proposing.

Putting up special and unusual terms is just a sign of fear, fear of losing that is. Yes, Rigondeaux was totally superior to Nonito in their first fight, but a second fight will be a different story, I'm sure. All Nonito needs is the winning hunger he lacked of in the first fight. For Some reason I ignore, he was like a zombie all night, with no desire to attack and eating up all those left hand punches from Rigo, until he got seriously damaged. I don't think Donaire will act like a zombie again in a 2nd fight, and apparently so does Rigo, and he reflects such fear, by making such outrageous stipulations.

The 2nd fight will be a worse beating for Nonito than the first. Donaire looked horrible against Vic and was down on 2 cards

Rigondaddy took Nonitos soul

Also, Rigos demands are fine. Nonito weighed 142 on fight night against Rigo, Rigo is the guy to beat now so if he wants to give Donaire an extra pound (123) have a same day weigh in then so be it.
