    I've already explained why he's partially responsible for his situation. You can't expect the world to come to you and as much as I appreciate his talents if the top fighters in the game play the P.R. game so should he.

        It's funny how many rich Black athletes have White people controlling their money either by being there promoter , accountant , advisor , agent ect . But the irony is that you rarely see it the other way around . Black people need to wake up and realize that colorblind and multicultural ideals don't exist in the real world of business , only in schools where the BS is taught . Having said that , kudos to Haymon for taking back black market share .
        how is working with Don King as promoter and his son Carl as manager work out for guys like Tyson and witherspoon ?

        this idiotic , tribal mentality displayed in your post is one of the main causes that the likes of Don king managed to pray on naive athletes who thought their money is safe just because the person handling their business is black.

          Perhaps you are right. There is definitely more to it than what you feel is true.

            Only time we seem to hear from Rigo is when he's signed a fight contract or when there is drama. That's part of the problem, even if Caribe and Hyde were horrible if the public was clamoring for this man as they should even then weakest promoter would be getting calls for his services. All this talk about he needs to change his style is non-sense he's perfect as he is but this is boxing in a modern era, half of it is what you do in the ring the other half is what you do out of it.

              Are you sure he hasn't been over-hyped to the mainstream that they have grown accustomed to hate his guts?

              Steve Kim, Kirean Mulvayney just a few who sound annoyed by the mere mention of Rigo's name from perhaps hardcores which probably number too few vs the casual fanbase which they need to appease and 'entertain' I think Rigo is a case of too much too soon, unfortunately a tragedy to those which wanted to see him succeed.

                You make a very very valid point of too much too soon. I do think there are people offended by his high estimation of himself considering his paltry pro career bout record. I do think he's very dry and lacks sociability because of the language barrier. I admit though he is certainly full of himself and he has a right to based on his skills. Who knows he maybe difficult to deal with because of this. I do think he should focus on japan because they love his ass there and they'd be willing to play his game more.

                  Japan seems like an unlikely option B. His main goal will be to sign with this big US Manager/advisor *ahem* post Sep 2015. But hey, if a couple Venezuelans were able to transition well in Japan, Rigo shouldn't have an issue.

                    Caribe and Hyde , both have rigo as his slave . Both do nothing but want to get paid .
                    Rigo has been fooled by both , but rigo is to blame too for signing them contract.

                    I only hope that rigo can get rid of Hyde in September and sign with Haymon, who wants rigo on his stable . Hope that caribe , who has rigo signed longer , work out a deal with Haymon so rigo can fight .

                    It is a shame that caribe and Hyde have rigo without a fight , and are both preventing rigo from signing with roc nation or now with Haymon. Both want rigo but this dictator are preventing rigo from the best deal available.

                    Rigo signed with Hyde in Havana Cuba , for a few & , Hyde abused rigo and signed for nothing. But Hyde didn't get rigo out of the island , it wasn't Hyde .

                    Caribe signed rigo here in Miami , they used him and are living off him .

                    Rigo is responsible for signing them papers, he was naive or for whatever reason .
                    Time is passing: please , scumbags , let rigo box , let rigo sign with Haymon. You , caribe and Hyde , can do s.....t . Let him free .

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

I know ur upset that some Black people are waking up from their multicultural dream state , but please try to at least mask ur contempt .
