Comments Thread For: McGuigan: Frampton is The Best at 122, Not Rigondeaux

[B-Bomber]

If it means we have a fight ... this is great news.

If it's just talk , then no, Rigo is the man until proven otherwise in the ring.

This is the best fight at 122lbs right now. It will be a really good fight, one thing is for sure Rigo shouldn't fight Frampton in Belfast or UK because no way he gets a decision or if he just gets buzzed or dropped the ref will make it a premature stoppage win for Frampton.

Can't believe that Santa Cruz defended his title 2 fights ago against a guy that lost to De La Hoya's nephew who has no amateur record. What a joke of a champ

When has Frampton ever got a robbery or a premature stoppage in his favour?

Just idiots that remember the burns-beltran fight, the same idiots forget when abril beat rios and lost on the judges scorecards and then just stereotype the UK as somewhere where no one can get a decision

Hopefully your fighter is more bite than bark unlike the duck. Make that fight happen.

Come one Barry stop being such a b!!ch, your boy even acknowledges Rigo as the king of 122.

Big B..even if i agree with you..i dont support this...b/c if he better than rigondeaux u dont fight a contender first..u fight rigondeaux..fighting quigg would be a black eye to your comment b/c u mentioned rigo 2 or 3 times before quigg in your interview..that would make 2 black eyes for you stealing rigo's opponent instead of offering rigo himself a uni in ireland...

"Over the next couple of years" so with regard to the Rigondeaux fight we're talking in terms of years from now. Great. Go eat a d1ck McGuigan.

He won't get a fair shake mate. Frampton's promoter will do anything to make sure Frampton wins this fight because if he beats Rigo he will king at 122 for awhile until he moves up to 126 and make some good $$$$.

What I don't understand is that Rigo has a Irish promoter Hyde who lives across the pond and can't make easy negotiations with Frampton's promoter to make this fight happen. Caribe and Hyde don't do squat just collect.
