Comments Thread For: WBO: Avalos Withdraws From Rigondeaux Title Shot

[Dirk Diggler UK]

If you are in any sport and you are scared of facing the best , you better kill himself .

What would baseball be if boston wouldn't want to face the Yankees ?
What would basketball be if San Antonio wouldn't want o face the heat ?
What would soccer be if Brazil wouldn't wan to face Germany ?
Just because they are scared of losing ?

The saddest part is the fan supporting this kind of attitude , the fans watching and supporting duckers cause they are scared too of seeing them lose .

If someone feels like that , you better stop living , watching sports .

Hit and not be hit ; face your fears : they are imaginary .

Stop posting please

Avalos's chance of becoming a world champ just sky rocketed through the roof...the fact is tha avalos has a better chance at an upset facing frampton rather then rigo..plus more money, this is a no brainer!

[BOXEO _]

This is just ***in ridiculous! Rigo should just move up to 126. Everybody at 122 is clearly shook. His fights at 126 would be more competitive and exciting anyway, it's a win win. The time has come to move on.

people that hate bernard hopkins will appreciate him when hes gone. he is the last of the old school.

[Cuban Linx]

Same old **** as before. Too dangerous, not enough money.

[bigjavi973]

Why would he fight Rigondauex when he can fight Frampton?

It's not like he's fighting Rod Salka or Forfarna or something. He's fighting another legitimate world champion who he is mandatory for. And he's making more money.

People really need to distinguish what a duck is.

(This is assuming he fights Frampton btw, anyone less than that IS a duck)

Its people with your mentality thats whats wrong with boxing. You're the same guy that said rigo should sign with a uk promoter to build his name! GTFOH with that bull****!

Well he should. He was offered a very good deal by Frank Warren from what I understand.

My mentality is living in the real world.

Stevenson (the champion) ducking the challenger is not the same as Avalos (a mandatory challenger to 2 belts) chasing the more lucrative belt.

And yeah boxers kind of fight for money.... it's the whole point of being a professional fighter. Believe it or not some guys are just looking to feed their families, not everyone is going to be an ATG like Muhammad Ali.

Stevenson AND kovalev are BOTH champions. You making kovalev seem as the "challenger" is completely idiotic.
