Comments Thread For: Rigondeaux Puts The Pressure on Leo Santa Cruz

[TOBYLEE1]

Nobody is going to want to fight Rigo. Huge risk and he doesn't bring in the big money.

[Box-Office]

Scott Quigg is not a regular champ and whenever Rigo's
been asked who he wants to fight he responds by saying....Anybody!!! He does not like to call names, he always says...el que quiera!!!

Never mind...

I elaborated on my point in post #45.

Rigo is too good for his own good, and the politics of boxing they way they are, I don't think he'll have any other significant fight. I don't think anyone that gets in a ring for a living is afraid of other fighter but promoters are in it for the money only and will do anything not to lose the money their fighters bring, there's no pride or honor, it's just business, live with it.

make it happen..i'll be rooting for Leo

I think Leo can beat Rigo so long as he is willing to go to war... And he'd just need to hope the judges would favour the guy wanting to fight over the guy pushing on the backfoot for 12rds.

with all do respect, but you can give LSC 10 years and will never be ready for Rigo. Rigo's skill set is beyond anybody at 122, 126, 118, no one can touch him. IMO, but I think that LSC and Kiko Martinez would give him the most trouble with steady smart pressure, and still you would have Rigo winning 8-4, 9-3 type of fight

Rigo would stop LSC

So here is the deal, it was the fans and Rigo that made a lot of noise to get the Donaire fight to come to fruition. Now is the time for boxing fans and Rigo to make a lot of noise about LSC and put pressure on him and get him to sign. Cubans, it is once again time for you to unite and make a lot of noise and put the kind of energy and insistence for LSC like you did for Donaire. Enough people making noise will make the folks with ringing in their ears give in and make the fight. This is the perfect matchup of styles. Will LSC with his pressure wear down Rigo? Or will Rigo drop LSC's work rate and counter him to death? Great matchup. Boxing needs this fight. My pick is Rigo by decision is a solid fight. I think Rigo will show more dynamics in future fights and the last one shows he can open up and get the KO. Lets see who has the balls to step up and fight him.

Rigo literally just got free 2 days ago. Was Santa Cruz supposed to release a statement the moment Rigo's fight ended calling him out?

[-PBP-]

Santa Cruz will fight him. No doubt in my mind. I have nothing bad to say about him.

It's Haymon, Oscar and whoever is handling his **** that's preventing him from taking his game to the next level. And that's a problem. Haymon has never built a star from ground up. All of his prospects are over protected and are shell shocked when they finally step up in class.
