So Rigo got offered 500K for Loma

[boxinghead530]

Loma got $750K for fighting that bum on the Bradley-Rios undercard. So yea, $500k is a lowball

Well lomo got that money because people want to see him fight. Rigo cant draw flies to sh it even in miami. I think half a million is fair for Rigo. Its not like that fight is some super fight. Its an amazing fight and the die hards would be pumped for it but no one else is watching. Half million for Rigo and a million for Lomo, that sounds right for where their market value is at.

He was on an undercard of a fight that didn't sell well....

Uh yeah, considering his tax bracket is 39%, and he has people to pay, $500k is a lowball offer for such a fight.

**** him, he's being a diva. He can go try and earn the average American wage if he thinks he is too much of a star to fight for that much money.

according to arum loma's got bigger fish to fry, bye bye rigo

Kovalev got $500k for fighting Bernard Hopkins. Maybe Rigondeaux should take what he can get. A win over Loma would be big for him. Short term financial goals aren't always the best strategy.

Trip and on this. The same cats who said Manny should have took a 40 million flat fee, are the same ones who say Rigo should take $0 over $500,000. Why would a guy with considerable market value, take a flat fee while a guy with no value take 0?

[bojangles1987]

Sorry to break it to his fans, but Rigondeaux isn't worth substantially more than 500k. He should have taken that for a Lomachenko fight. Right now he should be taking whatever big names he can get that make him relevant again.

NBC Sports: What would you tell Leo Santa Cruz if he were watching this now?

Rigo: I'd tell him look at all these belts. I'll trade you four for 1.

but boxing fans be like, ''Rigo is boring, titles, lineals, don't mean anything. it's all about seats!''

[KillaMane26]

Loma is not that big not like how Donaire was...I really hope this fight happens...This is a mega fight for true boxing fans
