    Two years without Arum, who they keep blaming, and the Cuban hasn't made a dent since.

      Rigo didn't choose to fight disappointing opponents, it's a result of a Top Rank/HBO punishment for beating Donaire, and Rigo's own awful decisions.

      It's a real shame, because he has done absolutely nothing since. He barely fights, and always against disappointing opponents.

            They didn't have a problem paying for Rigo fights before he beat Donaire. Why is it such a problem afterwards, when they should have capitalized on that win?

            Top Rank and HBO went out of their way to talk as much **** as they could about Rigo after that. They were pissed he won that fight.

              HBO/Arum gave him Agbeko didn't they? He's supposed to shine in that fight and give the audience a good and impressive win. He didn't deliver.

              You're an idiot for blaming the people who gave him the exposure he needed when others won't. He was in one of Pac's undercards. Even Donaire was complaining why Arum won't include him in Pac's fights.

              Anyway, what matters is what happened when the ones you're complaining about are out of the way.

              You're like a moron who can't move on because he keeps blaming his parents for being ugly. When are you going to take responsibility? It's been two years, it's still Arum's fault doe.

                Still have made more money that chocolatito and have a bigger win than him on the pros, that along with 2 gold medals and skills.

                I think chocolatito need to grow some balls and fight Rigo at 118 they both weight the same fight night.

                  Gamboa, Chavez Jr, Mikey, Rigo. All these people are supposed to be making waves now that Arum is out of their lives. They're rotting, instead.

                  Chavez is now with Haymon and his stock dropped dramatically. The rest are languishing in obscurity.

                  It's Arum's fault doe.

                    I blamed Rigo as well in my very first post, specifically because of the decisions he has made independent of Top Rank. **** off.

                    Damn NSB is full of ******s.

                      Great amateur who has done absolutely nothing in the pros. Cool, he beat Donaire, but Donaire is not a HOF fighter. Outside of Donaire, he has beat absolutely nobody.
