Comments Thread For: Frampton's Manager: No Rigondeaux, He Brings No Money

[boxinggod101]

Well the best in the sport does this all the time so why not

Lol same question im asking myself. He would become huge if he was able to beat Rigo. So I dont see their point there.

This is your response to big rigg saying there arent bigger names than rigo. "The fact is that there are bigger names..." dont have selective memory dumbass.

Did I say 5 somewhere in there? No you pulled that out of ******ed ass.

The Quigg fight is certainly bigger as is the Santa Cruz fight and potentially Abner Mares.

I've said this many times, but it bears repeating.

If Rigo ever wants to get the big fights, he's going to have to change his style. He's going to have to be more aggressive and more fan friendly. (His last fight was a start)
His team also going to have to take any fight they can, even if it's for less money. He needs to be active on ESPN, Fox deportes, anything. Try to build himself on his own, with a friendly selective aggressive style.

If he just sits around expecting the money guys to just call him out, he's going to continue to fade into oblivion. No money fighter is going to fight a guy who brings no money, no fans, a boring style and a tough day at the office.

And lets stop the "but he has two belts" crap. Truth be told most boxing fans don't give a crap about the alphabet belts, and the average fan couldn't tell you the difference between them belts. Heck your average fan couldn't tell you what belt Mayweather has.

He's just like the rest of them, avoiding the best fighter in the division. Rigo/frampton would be a good undercard fight, i say make it an eliminator.

Become huge to who? The dweebs on this forum? No one knows who the *** Rigondeaux is outside of here.

Rigo needs to sign with Frank Warren IMO. He'll showcase him on some UK cards and people will start to know who he is. Then Frampton-Rigo becomes a massive fight in the UK where both guys will get paid what they deserve.

Right now, they'd just be fighting for the sake of fighting and for **** money.

You've got your work cut out with this bright spark mate.

It is very simple, if Frampton were to beat Rigo, he would not only hold many belts, he would be considered the best in his division, a potential PFP fighter, and he could go on to make even MORE money against the likes of Quigg, Santa Cruz, etc, etc, etc, etc. So how is fighting Rigo a bad money fight if it escalates him to even greater heights and way more money?? In sales they call that a loss leader which is considered a solid business move. The answer is simple, team Frampton knows he would lose, and all of the accolades mentioned above would go down the drain because he and his team knows he cannot solve Rigo's style.

How is LSC and quigg bigger than rigo who is the ring, wbo and unified wba champion?He beats rigo, he gets all the belts, bragging rights and huge future paydays who can pretty much demand whatever money he wants. "To be the man, wwwwooooooooo, you've got to beat the man." I guess you are ok with Frampton fighting weak opposition. Real boxing fans care about legacy, money comes when you keep beating top opposition, not the second or third stringers

Or he fights Quigg first for the guaranteed much easier money and it makes the Rigo fight bigger.

It's obvious which is the logical route to take but for some reason people don't want to see it.

Let's not be hypocrites now. Rigo ain't going to Belfast and they won't fill all the seats in the smallest of stadiums here. If you give a pass to other guys taking fights based on what they can earn don't come in here being a hypocrite now. For one Rigo is not going into belfast and that flat out kills the fight.

Why not? He is been there before, he fought a kid in ireland, casey?
