    I personally don't ever see Rigo fighting LSC, Quigg or Frampton while either of these men are undefeated. Not that I feel any of them are afraid of Rigo, it's just Rigo brings no financial benefit to them. Once any of these men lose their 0 then I could see Rigo fighting them.
    Floyd didn't bring anyone money until he was mixed with oscar. You bring the best, and mix it with a popular fighter, you can do good business.

    Its not like Rigo isn't willing to travel to your home town and beat you down in your back yard where you can sell all the tickets you want.

      I'd hate to say it but Rigo needs to move up and fight bigger guys. It's not fair but all fighters have had to do it in the past.

      These fights at 122 against Quigg and whoever do nothing for his legacy. The only fighter that is good is Frampton.
      Fighters don't move up in their 30's, they move up through their 20's as they outgrow divisions.

      Rigo is small at super bantamweight, asking him to move up for fights when he is the king of a stacked division is just ******. Better solution, the other fighters should man up and fight him.

          Uhhh....and Rigondeaux will still be available after they fight each other. Frampton-Quigg is there to be made in an outdoor stadium this summer in a huge event. It has to happen.

          I agree with you, Frampton-Rigo is the better fight but you can't look at it from a purely selfish perspective.

          Do you think Frampton or Quigg should say to their promoters, "No thanks, you keep those millions for now. I'm going to go and fight one of the best in the world for chump change instead"

          What world do people live in?
          you do realised how ironic that statement coming from you, you accusing other people have selfish perspective when you only see matters only from Frampton or quigg perspective. why you dont see it from rigo's?? i mean he is only the best in the division, you should try see it from rigo's perspective.

          Rigo will be 35 in september and i believe LSC and Frampton are waiting for rigo to reach his decline stage before finally brave enough to facing him.

          that just my opinion. you know me, a casual fan and DKSAB

            Rigondeaux is afraid of Frampton so he's going for the easy option of Quigg. He Knows Frampton would easily beat Quigg and then the pressure is on him to fight Frampton.

            The Irishman is the best fighter in the class. Whether its Rigo, Leo or Scott he fights next. He will be the winner

                  Then let's continue to wait for them to step up while Rigo sits back and rots.

                    You don't get it. If you ask me what fight as a hardcore fan I want to see - it's Rigo vs. Frampton. But what fight needs to happen and should happen from a boxing and business perspective is Frampton-Quigg. I think that fight is a mismatch in favour of Frampton but it will generate the most money and attention to the division. And it will only benefit Rigo when he faces Frampton in the future. So I'm thinking from all perspectives.

                    Rigo fans think only for themselves because they're like a bunch of frustrated and impatient *******. They want everyone to do Rigo a favour out of the goodness of their hearts, turning down bigger paydays. Do you really think boxers take fights just to please 4 fans online who might be calling them "cowards"?
