Comments Thread For: Rigondeaux Wants His Next Fight in Miami in March

[CubanGuyNYC]

I say make a card with Gamboa fighting Mikey Garcia and Rigo fighting Donaire again. That would be an interesting Boxing After Dark card, you can hold it at the BT&T Center or see if you can get it at American Airlines Arena, but BT&T Center is known for holding boxing matches.

Nice fights, and they would definitely pack 'em in, but they're not happening any time soon. However, I do believe just having Rigo and Gamboa on the same card would go a long way. Add a few good prospects from different Latin countries and you're set.

Guys, No promoter in their right mind is putting Rigo on a card let alone a headliner. Did you not see people constantly walking of the arena, the fight was a stinker.

When you are supposed p4p 2 or 3 and heading a card you have to bring the entertainment.

There is no way he fights in the first quarter next year, he is toxic no one will touch him, regardless of how great of a defensive fighter he is.

Rigo career RIP.

I remember when all the **** people saying about Rigondeaux now was being said about Floyd so this is good news people said he was a bore nobody will want to watch him fight 15 fights later biggest ppv star in the world.....Skills and winning > everything too bad Rigondeaux doesn't speak english he is a funny dude in spanish would have pissed off a lot of people by now

Yeah, we can do that, too. The point is to appeal to the South Florida demographic.

This is exactly my thinking. Sure, right now people are turned off to Rigo because of his style and all, but if he keeps winning, sooner or later people will be forced to take notice. This guy is too good to ignore forever.

Haha Idk man. Like I said, I used to love it but I stopped drinking it for a while and when I got back to it I found it nasty as hell. So I just stuck with Cuervo.

I mean, when you been on that calambuco since you were little, tequila ain't ****. Granted I haven't had it since forever but still. Lol

Yea but not in March tho right? Isn't Kiko's fight vs Mathebula around that time?

I'd say that's a good fight cause Kiko won't pull an Agbeko but with Rigo in the ring you never know...
