    He needs to quit bull****ting. It's easy to say you want Rigo when you're on a different network and you know the fight can't happen. I can see he's taking a page out of Abner Mares' book.

    But a fight that CAN happen is between him and Frampton. But I can't see GBP making that fight, Frampton would destroy Santa Cruz.

      Santa Cruz won't fight Rigo. The best we can hope for would be for him to fight Quigg, with the winner fighting Frampton/Martinez. Boxing politics is ****e!

        Most likely, Rigo is simply too good and too quick and too damn smart for Leo.

        But I think there's a good chance Leo is young enough for his style to bother Rigondeaux. He may be willing to take shots others aren't and keep throwing. He also has a good jab, length, and size that could bother Rigo. He's not defensively irresponsible either.

        I think it would be better than expected.
        Leo is certainly young and big enough and he has a good amateur background with good boxing I.Q. However, unless Rigo get this April 12th Pacquaio undercard spot then I hold little hope of him getting out of the Top Rank contract in the foreseeable future.

          Rigo's going to hide with a Top Rank who doesn't appreciate him to avoid this kid.
          I really want to hear Carribe Promotions make some noise and beat the drums for that April 12th undercard spot on the Tim Bradley fight. Then we can see the light at the end of the tunnel for his eventual exodus to Showtime Boxing that we all hope is in the foreseeable future

          Someone please send this tweet to https://twitter.com/CaribeBoxing
          and encourage them to use all their ability to get Rigondeaux an undercard spot for the Pacquiao vs. Bradley fight ASAP before it fills up!!!!

          Then it is off to Showtime Boxing and Leo Santa Cruz in Fall 2014
