Comments Thread For: Hyde Reacts To Rigondeaux 'Change is Coming' Claim

[ManAnimalX]

???

So Caribe got Rigo an 18 month/ fight contract for $450k, while Hyde got Rigo an 18 month/3 fight contract for $1.8M.

Yeah, so basically Rigo likes Caribe because they get him bling.



Don't see the problem. It's only extending because Rigo refuses to fight. That's pretty standard in boxing contracts. Hyde invested money in this guy, and he's refusing to fight. It's on fair that Hyde gets a return on his investment.

Oh I see its about the $$$ then?, Ok then explain to me why Gary Hyde didn't accept a buyout from Al Haymon and his Corporate Warchest so he could recoup what you say he invested in Rigo?


Hmm?.......exactly, very fishy. Which is why I said Gary Hyde is a damn Demon, plain and simple.

He could have gotten his $$$ and Rigo's career wouldn't be stalled right now.

:ANYWORD:

Does this mean rigo is your slave , for ever ?
You and caribe promotions have failed to get rigo the best fight and best exposure out there . But you and caribe want to have him enslaved until he dies ...you are doing the same as Castro did in Cuba ,having rigo as your Possession.

Rigo made big mistakes signing with you and caribe , now you won't let him free to chose the best deal out there for him , who is al Haymon ,who tried to buy you and caribe out and you both refused ....

If your contract runs out on September and rigo want to finish with you , why can't he ? It is said you signed him in Havana for only 500 $ , haven't you made profits already ?

Let rigo free to chose a better deal for himself, you are not .

Rigo should dump both of you , but he is signed ,so bad .

You both want to squeeze him till the end , and rigo is in trouble . Time is passing and you guys can get him s.....t .

Let rigo sign with Haymon , Hyde and caribe have failed .

Hit and not be hit ; can not hit what you don't see .

This reads like some bad marriage situation. Guy just wants out. Wife is talking about how things are gonna get better if you just listen to me & won't sign the divorce papers. The bridge has been burned. Let it go & let everyone get on with their future.

There really should be some better safeguards in place to protect boxers from getting screwed over. To make money in boxing you gotta be world class in the ring & at least pretty solid at the business aspect of boxing. Most boxers seem to come from not the greatest areas education-wise & then they are expected to deal with these scummy Better Call Saul mfers in the business part of their boxing careers.

Its kinda like putting a bunch of tigers on the school playground & then blaming the kids for getting eaten. Boxers need a better advocate then the Muhammad Ali Act & local laws it would seem or some people who've been proven to be corrupt in the business shouldn't be allowed to work in the business. Idk but something needs to change cuz too many talented boxers are losing years of their already short primes over dumb *****.

It would be good if they had a law centre of sorts for boxers, like a free legal advice agency. But this is boxing. Stuff like that is fantasy. Boxing is the free market at its predatory worst.

Gary Hyde put up the funds to get him out of Cuba in the first place. If it wasn't for him Rigo would be fighting for his 4th gold medal next year.

That's wonderful and heart touching, I mean that's a great thing Gary Hyde did, and like you said if it wasn't for Gary Hyde, Rigo would still be in Cuba.

Now I got a question, does that mean Rigo is Gary Hyde's slave and now owes him the rest of his life regardless of there ***********al relationship because of it?

No. It does not mean that. Its time to move on, and its been obvious for awhile. You see that's the danger of some people offering there help, they then want to own you also.

Do you know what the offer was? How do you know it was reasonable?

Hyde : by rigo going to visit Ireland and England gets him the fight ???
No . Why can't you get the contract ? Rigo would sign it from Miami.

Rigo doesn't have to beg , you have to get him the fight and he has to sign and fight , that's his job . You are the manager , get the contract , get the fight .

Nobody wants to fight him , and you and caribe don't have the money to pay quigg or frampton to get it done , so you are begging them to fight him so you get paid .

You and caribe can't even promote a fight I'm Miami , even on ESPN , can you ?
You have never done it .

Let rigo go , maybe Haymon can get him exposure , fights and money . Rigo wouldn't have to travel to beg for a fight if he was under Haymon .

Hit and not be hit .

Hyde is an Irish traveller, I wouldn't fuck with him. Seriously.

So true. It has to be especially overwhelming for a poor kid from Cuba who has no idea how capitalism even works.

If he didn't take the buyout, it's probably because the offer wouldn't be more than what he would make by keeping Rigo as his fighter.
