    SO what's the news with Rigondeaux?

    Regarding his trainer and promoter?

    Is he back with Freddie Roach? I heard he was. Is he signing with Frank Warren and coming to the UK? His next fight on Japanese bill might suggest he isn't any more.

    Last I heard he was still being avoided by all champs at 122.

    Leo Santa 'Haymon' and Carl 'Feel Safe' Frampton - just a few examples.

        Maybe he can stop being an overrated Cuban:

        Who thrives solely on dethroning Flash. Oops?

        I type that?

          Naw he wasn't. Just hearsay you love to repeat.

          Yes you did.

          Overrated 'Cuban' is the question. What if overrated American or Mexican?

          He would be brilliant and very 'marketable'

            No bias anymore from yours truly. Mark it.

            I just think he should maybe pick a darchinyan or 3 before all of the talk my boxingscene boys are typin'.

            Yeah, he's an amazing tech-fighter but let's see him face some adversity.

              Don't get so wrapped around a marquee win vs Donaire. Which is sad given being Fighter of the Year for 2012 is no longer credible to many... yourself included.

                This is considered almost blasphemy on these forums, but I agree.

                When Loma "lost" to Salido, people were using it as proof that Rigo>Loma, but please point me to the fight where Rigo handled a significantly bigger, strong, tough and relentless world class pressure guy.

                When it's all said and done, Rigo beat exactly one really good opponent, and that opponent was about the best possible style matchup for him. It was amazing at the time but should Rigo still be ranked top 5 P4P after all this time based on nothing but that win?
