So Haymon blocks another fight. Let's blame it on LSC. He came out and said he wanted the fight, he told oscar he wanted the fight, Oscar confirms he wants the fight, called rigo out after his last fight, but he's ducking doe. Fck Al "****** lover" Haymon

In a surprising move, Golden Boy Promotions president Oscar De La Hoya has reportedly sold the contract for Golden Boy fighter WBC super bantamweight champion Leo Santa Cruz (29-0-1, 17 KOs) to adviser Al Haymon for an undisclosed amount of money, according to Dan Rafael of ESPN. “Oscar has been telling everybody possible that he wants Leo to fight Rigondeaux,” an unnamed source told Dan Rafael of ESPN.com. “Clearly, that’s not on the agenda for Al [Haymon] and Leo [Santa Cruz]. Al wouldn’t make the fight. Oscar wants to work with fighters and managers who want to put the best against the best and make the kind of fights that the fans want to see.”
props to the cross dresser

LSC is the one that is ducking the fight, with the help of Haymon.
Haymon allows these things to happen, facilitates them. But there isn't a single Haymon fighter that he has such control over that he can just kill a fight that was being negotiated.
This is what fighters like about their promoters. Oscar also would never pressure LSC to face Rigo if LSC was staying GB. LSC only has one fight, as we all know, so Oscar was smartly cashing in.
I knew LSC would never fight Rigo. Rigo woulda crushed him like a bug. Rigo is more dangerous than ever as he has become a bit nuts, there are rumors he's gone a bit nuts. Gone gangsta.

Haymon has the option to block any fights for his fighters. Same reason quillin had to vacate.
LSC definitely priced himself out, but it doesn't really matter if Haymon still says no.
Rigo should just stick to japan. He can have a long and successful career out there.

And no LSC isnt ready and may never be.

FFS this is one fight I was really looking forward to
Discuss!!!
Don't forget Haymon works for LSC not the other way around this is just sad. Say whatever you want about Donaire and how long he ran but when put against the wall he stepped up. LSC just b*tched out worse than that puta Quillin.
