    once again its ok to go fight a title holder yet duck the true champ in the division?..but you cried when Cotto foguth Canelo instead of GGG right?

        The guy fought his domestic rival and moved up to fight a champion at 126. If he was still campaigning at 122 then it's a duck...

              We all know nobody wanted a piece of Rigo, he brought zero money and almost 100% chance of a loss....

              But Rigo could have fought Lomachenko at 126 as well but didn't want it so is that a duck?

                I heard he wanted a re hydration clause to take the fight..is that true?

                  Who cares

                  Frampton ducked Rigo to get bigger financial fights with a better chance of winning. Anyone with a brain would have done the same thing. Frampton will have fought Quigg & Cruz (x2) while Rigo has fought Jazzie ****ens or something

                  I'm a Rigo fan but he needs to get the wheels in motion, He should just set up shop and post up in the UK ( Because the fan base will support elite level skill) and start beating down and KOing cans every other month until someone has the stones to fight him but this inactivity is just killing his career. I don't care if he's #2 P4P or not.

                    Did I miss adding the part that the WBA ordered the fight and Frampton was eventually stripped? You knew that right?

                      Framptons ducked himself into making millions of dollars, maintain his 0 and being considered in the conversation for FOTY ( which he deserves )

                      Rigo fought Jazzie ****ens on a undercard ...
