    I hope the fight happens even though IMO them calling out Rigo is to take the spotlight off Loma not wanting to fight Walters.
    Exactly! How does Rigo, who left Top Rank, get a fight with Loma, before Walters, who is signed to Top Rank?

      Can someone please explain to me how Lomo is any more "exciting" than Rigo? I would contend that Rigo is much more exciting....he get KO's.

          "I think if we got to Dubai, they would love that fight," said the Chairman of Top Rank, which is in the process of negotiating a fight card over there on November 21st.

          Fcukit !

          Bob openly discussed this fight, and he seemed optimistic.

          Fcukit !

          Just what I needed, another carrot from Bob Arum.

          Very little chance of seeing this fight in the near future, next to none I'd say.

            Exactly !

            Very little chance of seeing this fight in the near future, unfortunately.

                LOL this is a drastic change from the last time I heard Arum talking about Rigo. Think he called his mother a c#nt for giving birth to Rigo last time he mentioned his name. I'm picking, rooting for & hoping even more now Rigo ruins Arum's day one more time if this fight does get made.
                Arum is paying lip service to the media.

                I wouldn't get my hopes up if I were you ^^

                  Lomachenko comes forward and engages. Rigondeaux generally moves in the other direction.

                  Fight should happen, I hope it does.

                    Honest people tell the truth.

                    Dishonest people lie.

                    Bob Arum tells you what he needs you to think, in order to further his agenda.

                    He is a professional liar.

                    When Arum speaks, the first thing that should cross your mind is..... why did Bob Arum need me to believe that?

                    He is just like the US government.

                    When they announced that Bin Laden was dead, I just shook my head and laughed. Really *****? Because there were widespread reports that Bin Laden died in 2001 in ToraBora..... and after being examined and diagnosed with serious kidney problems Bin Laden was given 5 years to live, so it is highly unlikely that he survived for 12 years in a cave, and then another 5 years in an isolated compound.

                    *****, why do you need me to believe that you finally killed off Bin Laden ?

                    Oh right, it was election year, and your popularity had dropped from 81% to 24% during your last term..... right, now I get it ^^

                      the old man is full of ****....can't take **** he says as serious....his manipulation skills are on the decline...once a promoter is no longer able to manipulate or gas the public, he's considered shot!!...Arum is definitely shot!!
