What the?? Rig. Is training in Russia to fight in the UK but decides to come back to the US in the middle of the night??? What the heck are they doing??? Sounds fishy as hell? They using Rig. To help smuggle some sht??? I thought he wanted to box?? Not play "Where in the World is Guillermo Rigondeaux".

Ok glad this has been clear up from this side, now let's see what Rigo side has to say. Since QP has done the invitation letter then they have done whatever is needed on their side.

Why was Rigo told he had filed for the wrong visa? And who told him that?

Uhhh.....

The fuck?

I don't understand all these leads...or where these reports are truly coming from but..

Basically what they are saying is that Roc Nation Sports, with all their money, didn't have consulting personnel as "representatives" to assist Caribe "representatives?" Who from Roc Nation is handling on behalf of the application process? They are reporting that Roc Nation was unaware as to why Rigo and team left?

They are also reporting that the application process requires Rigo to submit his passport and regiven once the visa was issued? This was supposedly all submitted on February 29th. Why would Caribe and Roc Nation make an effort to expedite the process if in theory he never handed them his passport? Who at the Embassy, which were closed, give back his passport? Where is the Roc Nation personnel to foresee all this and another personnel from Queensbury fly to Moscow to acknowledge the whole situation.

These promoters (Roc Nation and QP) have the money to fly their representatives to help facilitate the process.

Seems really fishy to me. We need more leads...

Roc Nation Sports, who co-promotes Rigondeaux, has not immediately responded to an email for comment to confirm Warren’s version of events. -Mitch Abramson

Ideally wouldn't there be outrage from QP pressing out penalty statements? Seems things are a bit relaxed unless there was some nondisclosure agreements from all parties with Rigo being compensated...with them just cooking up stories about a fumbled visa process.

Very odd. I'd only jump to Miami if Nicki Minaj sent me a video saying she wanted it "bad papi..come to Miami quick" with a bent over selfie.

Why do I get the feeling that this is Caribe fault........
