    Rigo's career is all but over. They will never fight. It will never happen.

You gotta stay active to build fights. Rigo has not done his part to build a fight with Quigg, LSC, Frampton, or Loma. He's gonna want a half a million dollars minimum but can't sell out a VFW hall. Just because he's skilled doesn't mean he deserves that type of payday and a fight against guys who are out here staying active and building their names and selling tickets. Rigo is trying to leech off of their hard work to get a good payday.
      Please have this same mentality when it comes to Jacobs vs Golovkin.

        Totally different scenarios. You keep posting this to me and using bad examples. Earlier you thought selling out a 2000 seat venue is the same as selling 9000 tickets. Now you're comparing Rigo, a guy who sells less tickets than a middle school play, to a guy who sold 9000 tickets.

          The numbers are different, but the scenarios are the same. There's a proportion.

          What did Jacobs do after beating Quillin? had only one fight and against Sergio Mora, smh. Then says has a date for December but choses to wait until 2017. Then think he deserves 3+ millions to fight Golovkin.

          Selling 9k seats doesn't mean you can refuse a 1.7+ million purse like it's nothing. Are you aware that Lara sells almost as bad as Rigo?

            If the numbers are different the scenarios are also different. We're talking ticket and you think selling out 2000 seats is the same as selling 9000 seats and selling no seats is the same as selling 9000 seats.

              Rigo who? No one wants to see that boring ass hit and run, jab and grab guy. And besides he's at 122, I doubt he'll ever move up.

                I am actually saying that Rigo could be the only guy to be able to even compete with Loma at this stage and guys on here talk about politics, nobody wants to see Rigo, he's had opportunities, he's not making efforts to make fights, he's gotta get on his knees, blah, blah, blah... Boxing has the most ******ed fans I swear.

                  Rigo's at his limit at 122lbs. Lomachenko's at 130 and is looking to go higher for the money. Would be a great match-up but it will never happen. Rigondeaux might never be in a big fight again in any case.

                    we all know age got nothing to do with this. elite p4p boxers can bottleneck close to 40.

                    THis is why when they say Alvarez is waiting for ggg to get old only suggests that ggg isn'T great against better oppossition.
                    Lol the way you said "after cracking a jaw" made me laugh.

                    Random, I know, but I like the way you phrased that heheh.

                      Is Rigo still with RN? Any reason he wasn't on the Ward-Kov undercard?
