Comments Thread For: Rigondeaux Likely To Return on July 19th in Macau

You make this transition sound simple! I do agree with you that those are better alternatives, anything beats getting shitted on by your promoter and network.

I agree Arum spoke insensitively (and Schaeffer echoed him), but you gotta decide what matters more, nice words or money and opportunities. 50 Cent can probably do 1). And Rigo has gotten unbelievable opportunities for what he brings to the table, and even when the network soured on him they'll find a way to pay him what he probably can't get elsewhere. Like this Macau or a PPV undercard where HBO is not footing the bill.

I hope this is not televised. If it is, I will just skip his fight again like I did for the Kirkland-Tapia card.

Perfect example of how ****** fight fans have become. This ass clown rubs lotion on GGG's ass every time he beats up some club fighter. Yet, Rigo is roughly the same age as GGG. He went out and totally humiliated the reigning Fighter of the Year and the third, fourth fighter in the sport in only his 12th pro fight. And this dip**** criticizes him. His wet dream is 30 fights deep in his career and his best win to date is Matthew Macklin. You my man are a joke of a "fight fan."

Surely Rigo and his team are not sitting around for HBO and Arum to suddenly change their minds on him. I have faith and hope that Rigo will be steered in the right path.

Doubt China knows or even cares who Rigo is? Donaire needs to be getting that rematch..

Donaire is looking in a whole total direction from Rigo I doubt they are ever going to fight again

Good lord just fight already and accept whatever nickel on the ground is thrown at you.

STFU dumb ass

Quick question of Hyde takes 25% , then top rank takes a cut, caribe takes a cut and a trainer gets a piece of the pie as well and taxes are 3o% give or take. What percentage does rigo keep

That's a massive chunk bro! Can't blame Rigo if he is trying to maximize his profits.

rigo
shiming
lomachenko

on one card, would be sweet. also..... what are some possible opponents for rigo?

Any idea what path that is?

Spoken like a true casual who only watches his man crush GGG fight cab drivers but slights world class tacticians like Rigo. Do everyone a favor and skip his fights because nobody cares about your bum ass anyway.

Nope. Just want to see him fight the best.
