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

[opotemo]

What are the chance of Rigo just going to 126?He's already got his big win at 122 in Donaire. Beating Frampton or LSC isn't going to top that.

Pretty low, realistically he's too small for 126, hell he's already smaller than everyone he fights at 122. He could go up and probably outbox some of the top guys at 126 yet there is no guarantee of him getting fights there. Frampton and LSC are actually his biggest fights in either division(except maybe Lomo after he has a couple more fights)

He should but he doesn't. Rigo has no following. That's the reality. You can keep living in a fantasy world if you want.





So where would you stage a Rigondeaux-Frampton fight, genius?

If frampton has the following you say, then they should fight anywhere. A "cashcow" shouldnt need another cashcow to sell tickets. Who would you honestly think wins in that fight? Be very honest with yourself.

Terrible post how can you call a guy that has a 75% KO ratio boring???

That guy is an idiot. People just get mad that their favorite fighter cant beat rigo.

[bigjavi973]

Simple...he put me to sleep. And it not an isolated incident. All of his fights that I've seen of him have been slumber inducing. Even his fight with the Flash had me sleeping except the 10th (when his ass got dropped, thank you Jesus) and 11th rounds.

When you look up the word boring in Webster dictionary, you will see a picture of El Chacel. Hell when you look up a picture of "rating killer"...you will see a picture of El Chacel from ages 1-34.

What network would dare risk losing viewers by broadcasting his fights.

You fell asleep during the kokyetgym fight??? You are clueless. Just cuz he made donaire look like a rookie amateur doesnt make rigo boring.

Just don't say he doesn't bring money.

If.Frampton is a draw, it doesn't matter who he fights. Canelo fought Lara. Frampton just fought a guy with no fans.

Say the truth and I am good: its not Rigos marketability, is the fact that Frampton and his team have zero confidence he beats Rigo.

Same goes for LSC. All the bums they fight and all of a sudden brining money is the big concern? BS

This right here. They are just to afraid to admit it.

[bigjavi973]

]It's odd to me that people can't figure this out. "Legacy" doesnt matter anymore to 99.9% of the fighters. Why? Because "legacy" doesnt pay the light bill[/B], and the vast majority of boxing careers last less than a decade.

Face the facts, Rigo couldn't sell out the first 3 rows of a school bus, yet he will demand north of a half-million bucks, stink out the joint, and likely beat Frampton. On what planet does that make any sense for Team Frampton? Why take that fight? So that 7 or 8 guys on a message board will respect him? Not likely........

STFU and thats the reason your whimpy ass production sucks and went on a hiatus in 2011-2012. I actually had to look you up cuz I never heard of you and I have family in florida.

How about Havana? Bigjavi can promote him there. Cuban L and other Rigo fans, and Lazaron and fellow butt hurt Rigo fans can pitch in

If frampton is such as draw as hes saying, then they can fight anywhere. And rigo has fought up there before too so thats not an excuse frampton can use. I guess you have nothing intellegent to say so just log off, go back to your moms basement, you are drunk

[bigjavi973]

Leo, Quigg and possibly Mares would bring in their own audience, as opposed to Rigo. Sadly Rigo isn't a draw and until he manages to reel in fans, I see this excuse being used continuously until he retires. Sad part about this ordeal is the fact that Rigo won't attempt to at least please the fans because he said it himself, he won't change his style up for anyone or anything. That mentality coupled with Caribe Promotions leeching off of every other promotional brand they do business with will give Rigo a hard time locking down anything in the foreseeable future.

If Jay Z's Roc Nation passed up on what boxingsceners consider the hottest commodity in the sport, that should ring a few alarms about what's going on with Rigo's poor managed career. Bob Arum ended up giving up on him as well, was it right? **** no, but he did attempt to hype up Guillermo, sadly his stye only appeals to the hardcore fans of the sport. Sure he has a high percentage ratio but those KO's come to him due to the skill gap of his opponents, not because Rigo made it a point to go out and get the KO. If it were up to him he would cruise to a UD, and sure that's the essence of the sport, "Hit and don't get hit" but the business side is also selling tickets,packing arenas, etc.. and for as long as Rigo isn't doing any of the audience pulling or putting on action packed/high intensity fights, this ******ed excuse will repeatedly comeback to haunt him.

thats a lie. rigo stated that he will be more aggressive in his upcoming fights. He also knocked out kokyetgym in the 1st round. Ya frampton fans are just afraid of your fighter getting his ass whooped and his belt taken.

[bigjavi973]

That's the point. Right now, no one would care that he was fighting literally one of the most talented boxers of all time.



Well first of all.....no, it would just be doing a Rubix cube and no one would care because they aren't impossible to solve. A mild round of applause is what you'd get.

And second of all, get to ***. You'd turn down a million to do a crossword? Can we get some people who aren't kids in this thread?

Look whos talking about being a kid. Grow up. You still place money over values. Go back to your moms basement douche.

How is i a lie? Kokyetgym was not a worthy name to say the least and the KO was bound to come regardless. Tell me, how is knocking out an opponent in the controversial manner that Rigo did any indication of Rigo changing his style? He also knocked out 8 opponents prior to Kokyetgym, does that mean he has changed his style 8 times prior? Whether you like it or not Rigo said it himself, he won't change his style for anything or anyone. Period. I'm a fan of Frampton but if he doesn't keep his word of handling business against Rigo after settling his LSC/Quigg and possibly Mares fights, than I'll be wrong on my assessment of Frampton as a fighter. Rigo needs to settle his promotional issues as well, that alone can lead to more excuses from any fighter avoiding him in the near future.
