Comments Thread For: Ring Officials Named For Rigondeaux-Koietgym Title Fight

Then dont watch it

I won't. But that won't stop me from commenting on it.

It is hard to find three judges in the world that can spell Koietgym and see well enough to fill out a scorecard.

I wish it was on HBO so I can hear Roy Jones say Looknonyongtoy over and over again.

Why does HBO2 insist on showing Zou Shiming? Does he score big ratings for them or something?

As a subscriber and boxing fan I couldn't care less about him. Would much rather have seen Rigondeaux get that air time instead.

he's a chinese star and hero and the fight is taking place in china.

chinese people come to see zou hero shiming not rigondeaux.

I think it's ironic that the biggest supporters of Rigo and his tentative style are the same internet hardcore boxing "purists" that stream every PPV and even premium cable and have never so much as left their state to see a professional fight live. And they're the most vocal about wanting to see him too. Where were all you cats for the Agbeko fight? Probably streaming it I'll bet.

Is this a fact? You sound like a Know It All.

But as as an American who subscribes to HBO in large part for boxing what benefit do I get out of it?

Having Rigo's fight televised on HBO2 would at least make it worth it for me.

Here are the fights on the night, according to Boxrec:

Guillermo Rigondeaux SC Sod Kokietgym 12
Zou Shiming SC Luis De la Rosa 10
Gilberto Ramirez Sanchez SC Junior Talipeau 10
Brian Viloria SC Jose Alfredo Zuniga 10
Rex Tso SC John Bajawa 8
Ik Yang SC Rachamongkol Sor Pleonchit 8
Mark Anthony Geraldo SC Efrain Perez 8
Egor Mekhontsev SC Mike Mirafuente 6
Kuok Kun Ng SC Beau O'Brien

Now, I completely understand the whole Shiming thing, but what other fight on that card deserves to be broadcast on HBO more than Rigo's? And it's a championship bout, no less! lmao It's so sad it's funny. SMH

Well to be fair, Viloria. He always brings it. Definitely better for the ratings.

I dont think Shiming boxes... Well, if you wanna count the first 30 seconds of the fight then yes lol. Then he just starts ****ing...

Okay, that's two fights, Shiming and Viloria. What else? I don't know how many fights are being broadcast, but it's more than two. Isn't it?
